19.7 Battery Performance – Charge Times - Reconditioning
19.7.1 Foreword:
The following information is intended to provide an overview on the battery-driven system operation
times and charging intervals for the Z-PAK battery pack in the SmartCart, and the removable battery
pack used inside the Scan Engine. There are a number of variables that impact both the operating time
and charge time, that must be taken into consideration when anticipating the performance of a specific
battery.
Both battery packs are "consumable" items, and as such should be expected to have a gradual drop-off
in performance (system operating time) over their life span. The system operating time numbers listed
in this document are in reference to a "new" (optimum) battery.
Charging times will be significantly impacted by the temperature of the battery pack at the time of the
start of the charging cycle. The intelligent PIC device that manages the charging process will disable,
or reduce the rate of charge, as dictated by the battery pack's current temperature.
The total time that will be required for a battery to reach a full state of charge is impacted by a number
of variables. These include:
1) Operating state of system (transducer in use: HV active)
2) Temperature of battery pack
3) Initial first-charge for Z-PAK:

Performance
:
Typical system operation interval (on full charge):
............................................... 2.5 - 3.0 Hours
Charging
:
Fast Charge Rate (5A):
.............................................................................................. 5.0 hours (total)
Step #1:.................................................................................................................3.0 hours – main charge
Step #2:.................................................................................................................2.0 hours – final top-off charge
Trickle-Charge Rate (i.e., hot battery state)
........................................................... 16.0 Hours (worst-case)
Recondition & Full Charge State:
Optimum (battery in cool state, and initial charge level near full)
...................... 8.0 Hours (total)
Step #1:.................................................................................................................0 to 5 hours - to charge to full
