2.7 PowerScan™ BT8300 Battery Maintenance
NOTE
Before installing the Battery, read “Battery Safety” on this and the following pages.
Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery packs to ensure
maximum performance.
2.7.1 Battery Safety
WARNING
Do not discharge the battery using any device except the scanner. When the battery is
used in devices other than the designated product, it may damage the battery or reduce its
life expectancy. If the device causes an abnormal current to flow, it may cause the battery
to become hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury.
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or ignite and cause serious injury if exposed
to abusive conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warnings listed below:
WARNING
Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the battery pack to each other
with any metal object (such as wire).
Do not carry or store the battery pack together with metal objects.
Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise
subject it to strong impacts or shocks.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or allow the battery to get wet.
Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not rub the eye.
Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated, the battery fluid
could cause damage to the eye.
CAUTION
Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) temperature range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by
your Datalogic reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage the device and
void your warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection
devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature locations.
Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside cars in hot
weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the
battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life
expectancy.
Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction
cookware.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging or storing the battery,
the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnormal
in any other way.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after
one year of service whether the battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI battery, but cell
manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to take 500 full discharge /
charge cycles before needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is adhered to rather than
full / deep discharging,
The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batteries is one to three years, depending on usage and number of
charges, etc., after which they should be removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue to
use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most
applications, batteries should be replaced after one year of service to maintain customer satisfaction and minimize safety
concerns.
