Replacing Sensor Batteries

Sensor battery type, length of life, and installation are addressed in this section.

Battery Type

NOTICE
Equipment Damage!
The batteries are manufactured in a ready-to-use state. They are not designed for
recharging. Recharging can cause battery leakage or, in some cases, can cause the
safety release vent to open.
NOTICE
Equipment Damage!
Do not attempt to hook up the sensor to a power supply. Equipment damage may
result.
Use two non-rechargeable 1.5 V lithium AA batteries in the sensor. To maintain UL rating,
use only UL-listed lithium batteries. The sensor ships with Energizer™ L91 batteries
already installed. Replacement batteries are available at Trane Service Parts Centers (p/
n X13770035010) or other local suppliers.

Battery Installation

Prevent Injury!
Keep away from small children. If swallowed, contact your local poison control center
immediately.

Set the sensor address to 000 to place the sensor into a low-power hibernation mode.
Remove the batteries
If lithium batteries are temporarily unavailable, alkaline batteries can be used.
However, alkaline battery life is very short by comparison.
The battery life for a model WDS may decrease with extended LCD display activity.
