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.
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 materials safety data sheet for battery specific information.
Shipping considerations
The unit was shipped to you without the power module installed. Please remove the power module prior
to shipping.
Each Black Power Module contains two "C" size primary lithium batteries. Primary lithium batteries are
regulated in transportation by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and are also covered by
International Air Transport Association (IATA), International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and
European Ground Transportation of Dangerous Goods (ARD). It is the responsibility of the shipper to
ensure compliance with these or any other local requirements. Please consult current regulations and
requirements before shipping.
