Power Pack

Removing the Power Pack
The 9480 power pack is removable. This allows continuous use of the product by replacing it with another fully charged power pack when required. To remove the power pack simply release the clips and lift via the handle.

Power Pack Level

The power pack is equipped with a power level monitor which remains permanently illuminated to tell the user how much power the battery contains. The level monitor will glow brightly when the product is switched on and will dim when not in use.

While the product is switched on, the number of segments illuminated in the level monitor will gradually reduce over time. The product will switch off soon after a single red flashing segment is displayed. Once the product has switched itself off, the single red segment in the level monitor will continue to flash, indicating that a recharge is required.

Power Pack Charging

The power pack can be charged inside or outside of the main housing.

  1. Remove the dust cap from the charging socket and plug in the power supply.
  2. Connect the power supply to the mains / AC power.

Charge Cycle Indication

During charging, the level monitor display will become brighter and continue to cycle until all segments of the display are shown. Once the display stops cycling and shows all segments, the battery is fully charged.

NOTE: The power pack can be left attached to the power supply without any harm to the battery.

Warning

ONLY USE APPROVED POWER SUPPLY AND ENSURE CHARGING IS CARRIED OUT IN A WELL VENTILATED ROOM.

DO NOT STORE POWER PACKS IN A DISCHARGED STATE.

WHEN NOT IN USE, RECHARGE THE POWER PACK EVERY 3 MONTHS.

Battery/Fuse Replacement

Contact your dealer for a replacement battery or fuse.

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

BATTERY SAFETY

BATTERY SAFETY – YOU MUST READ THESE WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING OR CHARGING YOUR BATTERIES!


HANDLE AND STORE BATTERIES PROPERLY TO AVOID INJURY OR DAMAGE

BATTERIES CAN BE DANGEROUS!

burn hazard IMPROPER HANDLING OF BATTERIES CAN LEAD TO LEAKING, FIRE OR EXPLOSION WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Rechargeable Batteries

  • Hazardous Location Safety Approvals for explosive environments are only valid for the Pelican battery pack that is supplied with the equipment.
  • For replacement battery packs, only use the approved Pelican battery pack for the model of the product that you are using. The use of other battery packs will reduce performance, expose the user or others to serious injury, and will invalidate the safety approval.
  • Equipment should only be charged in a non-hazardous location.
  • Equipment should only be charged using the Pelican charger base that is supplied.
  • Batteries should be charged and operated between the temperatures shown in this table:
BATTERY TYPE CHARGING TEMP OPERATING TEMP
Lead Acid –15°C to 40°C
(5°F to 104°F)
–15°C to 50°C
(5°F to 122°F)
Ni-MH 0°C to 40°C
(32°F to 104°F)
–20°C to 50°C
(–4°F to 122°F)
Li-Ion and
LiFePO4
0°C to 45°C
(32°F to 113°F)
–20°C to 60°C
(–4°F to 140°F)
  • burn hazard DO NOT charge rechargeable alkaline batteries while they are still in the equipment. Charging the alkaline batteries while they are still in the equipment can cause internal gas or heat generation resulting in venting, explosion or possibly fire which could cause serious injury or property damage.
  • Deep discharge* of the rechargeable batteries may cause batteries to vent potentially dangerous gasses and electrolytes.
  • It is strongly recommended to condition* batteries every three months. During storage, the capacity of the battery decreases due to self-discharging. Leaving the product unused for long periods of time will decrease the battery life. Withdrawal of the charger from the product prior to a 'READY' indication will result in an inadequate charge.
  • If products are stored that contain regchargeable products, it is advisable to do so in a cool, dry place. If the average temperature exceeds 25°C (77°F) (below 30°C or 86°F), the frequency of supplementary charging should increase.
  • It is advisable to always condition a battery that has been stored before use.

*Deep Discharge: The battery has been allowed to discharge most of its capacity to a point beyond which irreparable damage has occurred. See battery specifications for the specific levels.

*Condition a Battery: Charge your battery to the fullest capacity and then disconnect from charger. Let the light run until it completely drains the battery and turns itself off. Place the flashlight back onto its charger and completely recharge the battery before using it. This conditioning or "cycling" of the battery will help it retain a fuller charge for a longer period of time.

Warning

  • If the charger fails to indicate a full charge after repeated charging attempts, or the battery exhibits a marked reduction in performance, a battery replacement is required.
  • DO NOT use chargers designed for a different battery technology or equipment, or model. Doing so may damage the product and expose the user to serious injury or property damage.
  • Ni-MH Rechargeable Battery Packs: DO NOT use Ni-MH rechargeable battery packs for longer than three years or 500 charge/discharge cycles, whichever comes first. Using NiMH rechargeable battery packs for longer than three years or 500 charge/discharge cycles will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or property damage.
  • Li-Ion and LiFePO4 Rechargeable Battery Packs: DO NOT use Li-Ion and LiFePO4 rechargeable battery packs for longer than five years. Using for a period longer than five years will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or property damage.
  • Lead Acid Battery: DO NOT use lead acid batteries for longer than five years or 400 charge/discharge cycles at 100% DOD ( Depth Of Discharge) *, whichever comes first. Using lead acid batteries for longer than five years or 400 charge/discharge cycles at 100% DOD will reduce the performance of the battery and expose the user to serious injury or property damage.

* DOD (Depth Of Discharge) *: is the fraction or percentage of the capacity which has been removed from the fully charged battery. Depth of Discharge is defined as the total amount of energy that is discharged from a battery, divided by the battery's nominal capacity. Depth of discharge is normally expressed as a percentage.

Battery Recycling

ALWAYS dispose of batteries properly at an approved battery recycling center. Failure to do so may be a crime and can lead to the release of harmful toxic materials. Pelican has partnered with Call 2 Recycle in the US and Canada to dispose of recyclable batteries. Please call 1-800822-8837 to find a battery recycling center near you.b
