5.4 Mounting of batteries
5.4.1 General
Starter batteries in accordance with the LN series may be fixed to the vehicles either:
— by a bottom hold-down device of the long side,
— by a bottom hold-down device of the short side, or
— by means of a hold-down device engaging with the upper part of the battery (for example, a metal frame), connected to the top clamping area (see Figure 4 and Figure 7).
In either case, these batteries shall have top clamping areas on the long sides.
The hold-down clamps of support shall match with the ledges and notches to provide secure fastening in all directions.
5.4.2 Dimensions and arrangement of ledges and notches
All batteries of the LN series shall have ledges for fastening over the length of all sides as an integral part of the battery container and allowing the battery to be fixed by means of the bottom of the container.
The positions and dimensions of ledges and notches shall be according to Figure 6 and Figure 7.
The profile of the ledges shall be in accordance with Figure 8 and Figure 9. The length of the ledges on the rear side of the battery shall be reduced by 20 mm from both ends compared to the one on the front side (see Figure 4).
The hold-down clamps of the support shall match with the ledges and the notches to provide secure fastening in either direction.
To allow a symmetrical rotation for fastening the opposite ledges contain an equal number of notches. To secure correct positioning of the battery on the support the ledges shall have 5 notches on the long sides and 3 notches on the short sides.
5.5 Terminals
5.5.1 Position of terminals
The position of positive and negative terminals shall be in accordance with Figure 4.
5.5.2 Dimensions of battery terminals
The dimensions of the tapered positive and negative terminal shall be according to Figure 3.
5.5.3 Marking of polarity
The polarity of the batteries of the LN series shall be marked twice in the area of the terminals (see Figure 4). The symbol of the polarity and the dimension of the symbols shall be in accordance with 4.2.2.
6.3 Handles
Batteries in accordance with this document may have handles. The projection ‘C’ of handles
(see Figure 19, Figure 20 or Figure 21) shall not exceed the values given in Table 3 and
Table 4. The handles shall be capable of being folded or removed so as not to interfere with
the other dimensions.
6.4 Mounting of batteries
6.4.1 General
Starter batteries in accordance with this document may be fixed to the vehicles either:
— by a bottom hold-down device of the long side (L, LB, E, EB series),
— by a bottom hold-down device of the short side (LS, LBS, ES, EBS series), or
— by means of a hold-down device engaging with the upper part of the battery (for example, a metal frame).
6.4.2 Dimensions and arrangement of ledges and notches
All batteries in accordance with this document shall have ledges (or recesses forming ledges) over the full length of the long sides of the container. The ledges shall be an integral part of the battery container and allow the battery to be fixed by means of the bottom of the container.
The position and dimensions of ledges and notches shall be according to Figure 19, Figure 20 and Figure 21.
The hold-down clamps of support shall match with the ledges and notches to provide secure fastening in all directions.
The hold-down clamps of the support shall match with the ledges and the notches to provide secure fastening in either direction.
To secure correct positioning of the battery on the support, the ledge on the side of the terminals shall have one notch; the ledge on the opposite side shall have two notches. Three or five notches on both sides are permitted.BS IEC 60095-2 pdf download.
