1 Introduction of the AutoPulse Power System
The AutoPulse Power System consists of a battery (either the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery or AutoPulse
NIMH Battery) and battery charger (the AutoPulse Multi-Chemistry Battery Charger).
Battery: Both the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery and the AutoPulse NIMH Battery are proprietary,
rechargeable, removable batteries that are specifically designed to supply power for AutoPulse
operation.
Battery Charger: The AutoPulse Multi-Chemistry Battery Charger is a stand alone unit designed to
charge and automatically maintain both the AutoPulse Li-Ion Battery and the AutoPulse NIMH Battery.
The AutoPulse Platform is intended to be deployed with other emergency equipment and should always
be kept in a state of high-readiness. Customers should integrate an AutoPulse and Battery check into
their daily equipment check procedures. Like other life supporting equipment, good battery management
practices are essential to provide proper operation, and to avoid problems during use.
