Rosemount 2160
II
The power module with the wireless unit contains two “C” size primary lithium/thionyl chloride
batteries. Each battery contains approximately 2.5 grams of lithium, for a total of 5 grams in each
pack. Under normal conditions, the battery materials are self-contained and are not reactive as
long as the batteries and the pack integrity are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent
thermal, electrical or mechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent premature
discharge.
Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.
Batteries should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximum battery life, storage temperature
should not exceed 86 °F (30 °C).
Failure to follow these installation guidelines could result in death or serious injury
