NiCad Battery Spill Kit - 8 Litre

The NiCad Battery Spill Kit is designed for the clean-up, containment and neutralisation of NiCad batteries. Some chemicals are very hazardous and consequently require neutralising, thus rendering non - hazardous, before any attempt is made to clean up. NiCad batteries are alkaline therefore a standard Battery Acid Spill Kit would not be effective in neutralising.

• Contains 5 x 0.9kg cartons of Alkali Neutraliser
• Each spill kit will safely neutralise 8 Litres of 22% - 30 % solution of potassium hydroxide

Nickel-Cadmium can pose a serious safety and health threat as well as being an environmental risk. Ni–Cad batteries contain between 6% (for industrial batteries) and 18% (for consumer batteries) cadmium, which is a toxic heavy metal and therefore requires special care during handling and disposal.

Taking a precautionary measure by keeping a NiCad battery acid spill kit on site can help protect employers, employees and the health of the environment.

Benefits of the NiCad Battery Spillkit:

• Neutralise before clean up
• Easy to use safely - Obvious colour change on application indicates effective neutralisation
• Return work area to workable condition quickly - Decontaminate and clean up in one step
• Reduce hazardous waste - After neutralisation any residues are environmentally benign and can be flushed into the foul water system
