Keep it on the ground, installation and future removal will be a nightmare. Build
on to the room it is too much weight to set up high. If you have room for a
forklift why not put the batteries on the floor. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Hi All.....anyone have any
experience with battery racking systems for big banks of flooded lead acid
batteries? Typically we don't like to stack flooded batteries but we may
not have space for as big of a bank as we need if we don't stack......Any one
know of a company that engineers racks that are seismically sound, have the
ability to have spill containment all while maintaining some
accessibility? I know DPW makes battery racks but looking at their web
site they are typically smaller than what we need.....<br>
We need to support roughly 7000lbs.....and are exploring if this is even
doable....<br>
Cheers and thanks!<br clear=all>
