6.6.1 Handling considerations
The Black Power Module with the wireless unit contains two "C" size primary lithium/
thionyl chloride batteries. Each battery contains approximately 2.5 grams of lithium, for a
total of five grams in each Power Module. Under normal conditions, the battery materials
are self-contained and are not reactive as long as the batteries and the battery pack
integrity are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical or
mechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge.
Use caution when handling the power module. It may be damaged if dropped from
heights in excess of 20 ft. (6 m).
Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.
6.6.2 Environmental considerations
As with any battery, local environmental rules and regulations should be consulted for
proper management of spent batteries. If no specific requirements exist, recycling
through a qualified recycler is encouraged. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for battery
specific information.
6.6.3 Shipping considerations
The unit was shipped to you without the power module installed. Please remove the
power module prior to shipping.
