Q-06: What happens if I use batteries other than SAFT
’
s LSH20 (3.6VDC)?
A-06: Usage of batteries other than LSH20 may result in followings.
Shorter or unstable operation time
Permanent damages to the AX-TFRs
Causing fire and/or emissions of toxic gas.
Q-07: Can AX-TFRs operate with one battery for each TX (transmitter) and
RX (receiver)?
A-07: Yes, It is possible that AX-TFRs operate with one LSH20 for each TX
and RX. Please also be aware that using one LSH20 will reduce the expected
operation period and make AX-TFRs more vulnerable to shocks and
vibrations.
Q-08: How long do LSH20 batteries last?
A-08: Under ordinary conditions LSH20 batteries last at least 3 years.
For AX-100TFR (30m): Approx. 5 years
For AX-200TFR (60m): Approx. 3 years

whereas Receiver has approx. 5 years of life.
Q-09: What affect the battery life of AX-TFRs?
A-09: Colder climate may shorten the operation period. Since AX-TFRs do
not share power supply with wireless transmitters, expected life period will
not be affected by frequency of alarms.
Q-10: What happens if I accidentally insert batteries upside down?
