Battery operation
and maintenance
The device is equipped with a modern
lithium- ion battery that, at the time of deliv-
ery and after being fully charged, guarantees
an operating time of 6 hours at 25 ml/h. For
optimal treatment of the battery, the device
is equipped with protection against over-
charge and deep depletion. The battery is
charged by the device during mains opera-
tion.
In the event of a power cut or disconnection
from the mains, the pump automatically
switches to battery mode.
The battery status indicator in the display is
a trend display (low, medium, high).
10.2.1
Notes for optimal
battery operation
Battery life may vary due to
Q
Ambient temperature
Q
Varying loads
Therefore, please observe the following:
Q
Under normal temperature conditions,
a battery can be fully discharged and
recharged around 300 times before its
capacity decreases to around half of the
original nominal value.
Q
When the device is in mains operation
mode, the battery discharges slowly
and may be fully exhausted after a
month even if the device is not in
operation. In this case the battery does
not reach its original capacity after one
charge; it takes several charging and
discharging cycles for the battery to
achieve its original capacity.
