2. Hazards Identification
Do not short circuit, recharge, puncture, incinerate, crush, immerse, force discharge or expose to
temperatures above the declared operating temperature range of the product. Risk of fire or explosion. The
Lithium-Thionyl chloride batteries described in this Safety Data Sheet are sealed units which are not
hazardous when used according to the recommendations of the manufacturer.
Under normal conditions of use, the electrode materials and liquid electrolyte they contain are not exposed to
the outside, provided the battery integrity is maintained and seals remain intact. Risk of exposure only in case
of abuse (mechanical, thermal, electrical) which leads to the activation of safety valves and/or the rupture of
the battery container. Electrolyte leakage, electrode materials reaction with moisture/water or battery
vent/explosion/fire may follow, depending upon the circumstances.
