Maintenance
4.1 Battery
The radio module is fitted with a 3.0 volt lith-
ium battery that cannot be recharged.
The average battery life is 15 years, calculat-
ed using the factory set-up (mode C1, tiny
telegram: 1 message every 16 seconds) and
in the following operating conditions:
– between -10°C and +0°C for 10% of
lifespan
– between 0°C and +30°C for 80% of lifespan
– b31 °C and +55 °C for 10% of
lifespan
l
WARNING!
Humidity and intense heat may
damage the battery and reduce
its lifespan.
The radio module calculates the residual
lifespan of the battery on the basis of stored
parameters, such as estimated consump-
tion of the electronic board in stand-by
mode, transmitter consumption and num-
ber of transmissions performed.
Battery life depends largely on the frequen-
cy of data transmission set.
4.2 Cleaning
No particular cleaning procedures are re-
quired. However, the installation area
should be kept clean and periodic checks
should be performed to ensure the required
environmental conditions are met.
