Transportation of lithium-ion batteries is regulated by the United Nations under the United
Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. It is expected that
governments, intergovernmental organizations, and other international organizations shall
conform to the principles laid down in these regulations, thus contributing to worldwide
harmonization in this field. These international organizations include the International Civil
Aviation organization (ICAO), the International Air Transport Association (IATA), the
International Maritime Organization (IMO), the US Department of Transportation (USDOT),
Transport Canada (TC), and others. Please contact the transporter and confirm current
regulations before transportation of lithium-ion batteries.
•
For California (USA) only:
The CR battery contains perchlorate material, and special handling may be required. Refer to
http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
•
Do not open, crush, or perforate batteries; doing so could cause injury.
•
Do not incinerate batteries. Keep batteries away from fire and other sources of extreme heat.
Exposing batteries to extreme heat (over 80 °C) could result in an explosion or personal injury.
•
Do not drop, hit, or otherwise abuse a battery, as doing so could expose the cell contents, which
are corrosive and explosive.
•
Do not short-circuit the battery terminals. A short circuit could cause injury and severe damage
to a battery making it unusable.
•
Do not expose a battery to moisture or rain; doing so could cause an electric shock.
•
Only use the Vanta analyzer or an external charger approved by Olympus to charge the batteries.
•
Only use batteries supplied by Olympus.
•
Do not store batteries that have less than 40 % remaining charge. Recharge batteries to between
40 % and 80 % capacity before storing them.
•
During storage, keep the battery charge between 40 % and 80 %
•
Do not leave batteries in the Vanta analyzer during instrument storage.
Electrical Warnings
The instrument must only be connected to a power source corresponding to the type indicated on the
rating label.
If an unauthorized power supply cord is used to power the instrument or charge the batteries,
Olympus cannot guarantee the electrical safety of the equipment.
•
X-ray tubes and detectors in this instrument contain beryllium metal in the form of coated foil. In
its as-supplied state, the beryllium poses no harm to the user. However, if a detector or tube is
damaged, contact with small particles is possible if the instrument is breached (for example, a
window is broken or during window replacement). Intact skin is sufficient protection against this
situation and washing with soap and water will effectively remove any beryllium contamination.
If granulated beryllium embeds in an open wound, seek medical attention.
•
Instruments with a damaged detector or tube must be returned to your local distributor or the
manufacturer. Care should be taken to limit the release of beryllium from the instrument.
Equipment Disposal
Before disposing of the Vanta analyzer, check your local laws, rules, and regulations, and follow them
accordingly.
