of 3.0VDC. The 17 total cells are packaged within the one 
replaceable battery pack. The 22.5VDC output is fused in 
the middle of the string to limit the current to 4.0 amps. 

The two following battery types are offered with RSK-ABL1: 

Lithium/Iron Disulfide – this battery pack has been 
tested to 3,000+ operations before needing replaced. 
The individual cells have an advertised shelf life of 
10-20 years depending upon the storage temperature. 
The advantage to this battery is that it is long lasting 
and will not require replacement as often as an 
alkaline battery. The disadvantages are that there 
are regulations that in certain circumstances could 
prevent shipping or transporting them by air freight 
and internationally. See Federal 49 CFR 173.185 
and IATA regulations for additional information 
for shipping and transporting Lithium batteries. 
See Section 7.0 for additional specifications. 

Alkaline – this battery pack has been tested to 1,500+ 
operations before needing replaced. The individual 
cells have an advertised shelf life of one year, which 
is the dis-advantage of this battery. The advantage is 
that is can be easily shipped by air or internationally. 

The type of battery installed in your RSK-ABL1 could 
be either the Lithium/Iron Disulfide type or the 
Alkaline depending on which type was ordered. The 
type of battery installed in your RSK-ABL1 can be 
determined by the label on the side of the battery. 

Both types of battery packs are custom designed 
to work with the RSK-ABL1 and are only available 
through CBS ArcSafe. Use only approved battery 
packs. CBS ArcSafe can provide assistance to assure 
that you order the correct battery. See Section 
8.0 for information to contact CBS ArcSafe.

RTL-1 Remote Transmitter 
The RTL-1 is a remote transmitter used with the 
wireless version of the RSK-ABL1. It is powered by 
a 9VDC battery. Replace this battery as needed 
with a commercially available 9VDC battery. An 
alkaline type is recommended, but not required. 

RCL-1 Remote Controller 
The RTL-1 is a remote controller used with the cabled 
version of the RSK-ABL1. It is powered from the RSK-ABL1 
actuator through the cable and does not contain a battery.

3.1 Removing and Replacing the 

Battery in the RSK-ABL1 Actuator 

The RSK-ABL1 actuator requires a custom 
battery. Do not attempt to use a non-approved 
battery. To obtain a replacement battery, see 
Section 3.0 for detailed information. To replace 
the battery, complete the following steps: 

STEP 1: Using Phillips screwdriver, remove 
four screws from battery cover plate.

STEP 2: Remove battery cover plate and slide battery out.
