12.2 Battery Disposal
Important note from the European Directive 2006/66/EC on waste
accumulators and batteries:
Important:
Batteries are not allowed to be thrown into the domestic
refuse. As a end user you are legally bound to return batteries to collecting
points or back to their origin.
Products containing batteries are marked with a crossed wheelie bin
symbol:
Figure 12: Labeling Batteries
Beneath the symbol you will find also a chemical symbol added for a
particular metal if the battery contains more than a specific percentage of it.
The chemical symbols Cd stands for Cadmium, Hg for mercury and Pb for
lead. Those are pollutants the environment never shall be contaminated
with.
12.3 Check the Battery Status with CoDeSys
The battery may be monitored from your PLC program using the system
function StatusOfBattery. Read on for closer information in the chapter xxx
