Battery Precautions
•
Before disposing of a battery, check your local laws, rules, and regulations, and follow them
accordingly.
•
Transportation of lithium-ion batteries is regulated by the United Nations under the United
Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. It is expected that
governments, intergovernmental organizations, and other international organizations shall
conform to the principles laid down in these regulations, thus contributing to worldwide
harmonization in this field. These international organizations include the International Civil
Aviation organization (ICAO), the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the
International Maritime Organization (IMO), the US Department of Transportation
(USDOT), Transport Canada (TC), and others. Please contact the transporter and confirm
current regulations before transportation of lithium-ion batteries.
•
Do not open, crush, or perforate batteries; doing so, could cause injury.
•
Do not incinerate batteries. Keep batteries away from fire and other sources of extreme heat.
Exposing batteries to extreme heat (over 80 °C) could result in an explosion or personal
injury.
•
Do not drop, hit, or otherwise abuse a battery, as doing so could expose the cell contents,
which are corrosive and explosive.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals. A short circuit could cause injury and severe
damage to a battery making it unusable.
•
Do not expose a battery to moisture or rain; doing so could cause an electric shock.
•
Only use the BondMaster 600 or an external charger approved by Olympus to charge the
batteries.
•
Only use batteries supplied by Olympus.
•
Do not store batteries that have less than 40 % remaining charge. Recharge batteries to
between 40 % and 80 % capacity before storing them.
•
During storage, keep the battery charge between 40 % and 80 %.
•
Do not leave batteries in the BondMaster 600 during instrument storage.
Hearing Protection
The BondMaster 600 probes emit audible sounds that easily propagate and that are amplified by the
part being tested. The sound level is dependent on numerous factors, including (but not limited to)
part composition, frequency, extent of defect(s), and proximity to the part being tested. Under specific
test conditions, sound levels in excess of 85 dB have been measured near the probe. Sounds of this
intensity can result in hearing fatigue and possible hearing damage after long-term exposure, and
therefore a hearing-protection program may be necessary. In particular, the mechanical impedance
analysis (MIA) and pitch-and-catch swept modes are capable of generating high-pitched sounds that
