Deep Discharge (Over Discharge)
Deep discharge or reverse charging will damage the bat -
tery performance and must be avoided. In order to avoid
over discharge of battery which is directly co nnected
to an electronic circuitry, any leakage current must be
re duced to minimum or better avoided completely. A
switch or a deep discharge cut off device may be con-
nected between battery and associated circuitry to pre-
vent over discharge. We recommend to use such device
in any case if battery with circuitry is shipped or stored.
Please consult us for detailed design recommendations.
Safety Guidelines
■
Keep out of the reach of children. If swallowed, contact
a physician at once
■
Do not incinerate or mutilate, may burst or release toxic
materials
■
Do not short circuit, may cause burns
■
Do not deep-discharge or discharge into reverse
■
Do not solder on the battery directly (use our tagged ver-
sions)
■
Restrict charging current and time to the recommended
value
■
Observe charging temperature: 0 to +65°C/+85°C
■
Battery compartment should provide sufficient space for
battery to expand in case of abuse
■
Either battery compartment or battery connector should
have a design that makes it impossible to place the bat
tery in reverse polarity
■
Equipment intended for use by children should have
tamper-proof battery compartment
■
Battery of different electrochemical system, grades, or
brands should not be mixed
■
Battery disposal method should be in accordance with
local and state regulations
