LS 14250 component cell
Battery with ABS plastic enclosure
Component cell with:
- Stainless steel container
- Hermetic glass-to-metal sealing
- Non-flammable electrolyte
- Underwriters Laboratories
(UL)
Component Recognition
Battery non-restricted for transport
Manufactured in China
Pulse capability: Typically up to 100 mA
(100 mA/0.1 second pulses, drained every 2 mn at + 20°C from undischarged
battery with 10 µA base current, yield voltage readings above 3.0 V. The readings
may vary according to the pulse characteristics, the temperature, and the
battery previous history.)
Maximum recommended continuous current
(Higher currents are possible, consult Saft)
Storage
(recommended)
(for more severe conditions, consult Saft)
35 mA
+ 30°C (+ 86°F) max
- 60°C/+ 85°C
(- 76°F/+185°F)
Operating temperature range
(Operation above ambient T may lead to reduced capacity and
lower voltage readings at the beginning of pulses. Consult Saft)
