DATAPAQ TP3
Specifications and Operation
27
Always replace all of the batteries at the same time.
Never use batteries other than those supplied by Datapaq.
Do not mix different types of Datapaq battery, nor batteries of any other type;
this could lead to an explosion.
8. Carefully place the old batteries one at a time into the empty packaging. Do not
allow them to be short-circuited. See below for disposal of lithium batteries.
9. Re-check that batteries are installed with correct polarity, then secure the
battery-compartment door with its screw.
10. Datapaq batteries must be depassivated before they are used for the first
time. This takes place automatically after placing them in the logger, as
follows.
a. Yellow LED produces two rapid flashes every second.
b. After 20 minutes, yellow LED stops flashing.
c. Logger is ready for use.
To remove the battery housing from the logger (in order to replace with a
new one or to change the battery type in use), see p. 23.
Handling Lithium Batteries
WARNING
Lithium batteries – Fire, explosion and severe burn hazard
Lithium batteries are potentially dangerous and require great care in handling
and storage.
•
Do not short-circuit
•
Do not attempt to recharge
•
•
Do not reverse-connect
•
Do not open batteries
•
•
Do not expose battery contents to water
•
•
Do not solder anything to the battery
•
Do not incinerate
•
•
Do not mix cells
•
Do not leave discharged cells in the logger
•
These instructions must be carefully read in full, and understood, by any person
likely to handle, replace or dispose of lithium thionyl chloride batteries.
Do not open, crush or deform the battery cells. If the lithium metal within the
cell is exposed to the air and moisture, an explosion or fire may result. The
contents are flammable, corrosive and extremely irritating to the lungs and
respiratory system. Lithium metal and thionyl chloride cause chemical burns on
contact with skin.
The Datapaq inorganic lithium thionyl chloride batteries will, when used
correctly, provide a safe and dependable source of power. They represent the
only current battery technology that can meet the demands of high-temperature
operation. Unlike more conventional batteries, lithium cells contain flammable
materials, and consequently safety precautions must be taken during transport,
