Primary lithium battery LS 14250 3.6 V Primary lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl ) 2 High energy density 1 ⁄2 AA-size bobbin cell Benefits Cell size references ½ R6 – ½ AA l High voltage response, stable during most of the lifetime of Electrical characteristics the application (typical values relative to cells stored for one year or less at +30°C max.) l Wide operating temperature Nominal capacity 1.20 Ah range (-60°C/+85°C) (at 1 mA +20°C 2.0 V cut-off. The capacity restored by the cell varies l Low self-discharge rate according to current drain, temperature and cut-off) (less than 1 % per year of ° Open circuit voltage (at +20 C) 3.67 V storage at +20°C) Nominal voltage (at 0.1 mA +20°C) 3.6 V l Easy integration into compact Nominal energy 4.32 Wh systems l Superior resistance to Pulse capability: Typically up to 100 mA ° (100 mA/0.1 second pulses, drained every 2 mn at +20 C from atmospheric corrosion undischarged cells with 10 µA base current, yield voltage readings above 3.0 V. The readings may vary according to the pulse characteristics, the Key features temperature, and the cell’s previous history. Fitting the cell with a capacitor l Stainless steel container may be recommended in severe conditions. Consult Saft) and end caps Maximum recommended continuous current 35 mA (low magnetic signature) (Higher currents are possible, consult Saft) l Hermetic glass-to-metal sealing Storage (recommended) +30°C (+86°F) max l Non-flammable electrolyte (for more severe conditions, consult Saft) l Compliant with IEC 60086-4 Operating temperature range -60°C/+85°C safety standard and (Operation above ambient T may lead to reduced capacity and (-76°F/+185°F) lower voltage readings at the beginning of pulses.
