Battery Room Ventilation Information | BHS
The forklift battery room ventilation requirement calculators provided below are for reference only. BHS takes no responsibility for these guidelines or the results obtained. Applicable statutes and regulations supersede any guidelines provided by BHS.
Battery Room Considerations
The battery room should be sufficiently well ventilated to prevent the accumulation of hydrogen and oxygen given off during recharging. As hydrogen is lighter than air and is likely to concentrate near ceiling level, air bricks and vents should be sited high up on outside walls and unvented structural pockets in the ceiling should be avoided.

Battery Room Considerations
To ensure that the ventilation of a battery room is adequate to keep the concentration of hydrogen gas within safe limits, it is necessary to be able to calculate the rate of evolution of hydrogen. Hydrogen is evolved during a recharge or freshening change of a battery when the voltage rises above 2.30 volts per cell.
