30、42-2:2007+A1:2014 (E)- 5 - 1 Scope This European Standard is applicable to lead-acid batteries used for starting, lighting and ignition of passenger automobiles and light commercial vehicles with a nominal voltage of 12 V. All batteries in accordance with this European Standard can be fastened to th
31、e vehicle either by means of the ledges around the case or by means of a hold-down device engaging with the lid. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

35、standard. 4.1 Marking 4.1.1 Safety labelling The batteries shall bear the six coloured safety symbols in accordance with EN 50342-1. 4.1.2 Marking of the polarity of terminals The batteries shall be marked with signs for both polarities that have to be positioned near to or on the top face of the te
36、rminals. 4.1.2.1 Marking of positive terminals This marking shall take the form of the symbol + either on the upper surface of the positive terminal or on the lid adjacent to the positive terminal. BS EN 50342-2:2007+A1:2014 EN 50342-2:2007+A1:2014 (E)- 6 - 4.1.2.2 Marking of negative terminals This
37、 marking shall take the form of the symbol “ either on the upper surface of the negative terminal or on the lid adjacent to the negative terminal. 4.1.2.3 Design and dimensions of marking of terminals The symbols used for marking the terminals shall be in accordance with the IEC 60417, symbol 5005 a
38、 for the positive and symbol 5006 a for the negative polarity. Figure 1 Marking of polarity The polarity symbols may be either indented or embossed by (0,4 0,1) mm. 4.2 Recycling 4.2.1 Recycling of lead The batteries shall be marked with the recycling symbol and the EC-Symbol of a crossed through ro
39、ll out container, both in accordance with EN 61429. 4.2.2 Recycling of plastic material The marking of plastic moulded parts has to be fixed in the tooling of the battery container e.g. on the bottom or on one short wall side near the ledge. For the polypropylene-polyethylene copolymer the marking P
40、P PP/PE in accordance with EN ISO 1043-1 is the minimum requirement. As supplementation is permissible the recycling symbol (ISO 7000-1135), the number 7 or 07 for PP/PE and the addition of “other“ in case of additives to PP. Figure 2 Marking of polypropylene The marking shall be achieved by mouldin
41、g in relief. The recommended thickness is (0,3 0,1) mm. The height of the marking characters shall be between 5 mm and 7 mm. BS EN 50342-2:2007+A1:2014 EN 50342-2:2007+A1:2014 (E)- 7 - 4.3 Dimensions and design All dimensions are in millimetres. Details of the design that are not indicated in the ge
42、neric drawings have to be chosen appropriately. The illustrations in this standard, especially those of the design of the lid, handles, ribs, ledges, vent caps and their locations are not mandatory. 5 Recommended types The object of this clause is clearly to update the previous edition of this stand
43、ard and to introduce an updated version of LS and LBS models. Those updated versions LN and LBN are designed so that they may replace the earlier models LS and LBS. Therefore, for new battery developments, only the recommended series LN and LBN shall be used. This clause specifies the main dimension
44、s of starter batteries of the two preferred series LN and LBN; the location of the positive and negative terminals with respect to the fastening system; the dimensions of tapered terminals of starter batteries; the main dimensions and design of the Semi Lid (SL); the top clamping area (M) for fasten
45、ing on the upper part. The preferred series LN replaces LS and series LBN replaces LBS of 6.1. 5.1 Recommended types LN and LBN Starter batteries in accordance with this part of the standard are marked with LN and LBN (N = new). Both battery series have the same width (L = large) but different heigh
46、t: LN = standard height (H = 190 mm) LBN = low height (H = 175 mm) Of the two series, the model LN (large, standard height, new) shall be considered as the most preferred series. 5.2 Main dimensions of batteries The main dimensions of the batteries are represented by symbols as indicated on the draw
47、ings. These schematic drawings do not represent any design details of the top of the battery. The dimensions corresponding to the symbols below shall be in accordance with Figure 3, Figure 4, Figure 5, Table 2 and Table 3.
