Changing Lithium Battery on RF500 Series Transmitters
Battery Reordering
RF512, RF513, RF515 & RF516 transmitters are fitted as standard with a high power 3.6V Primary lithium-thionyl
chloride C-size cell. Manufacturers part number
Saft LSH14 LIGHT or Saft LS26500.
The
Saft LS26500 battery can only be used in transmitters manufactured after April-2009. The date-of-manufacture is
encoded in the serial number. The serial number has the format MMYYxxxx where MM represents the 2-digit month
and YY represents the 2-digit year in which the transmitter was manufactured.
Comark recommend that only the
Saft LSH14 LIGHT be used in powered transmitters. The Saft LS26500 battery can
suffer from short lifetime when installed in powered transmitters.
Only use
Saft LSH14 LIGHT or Saft LS26500 as replacements. Use Comark part number: ‘RFBATT’ to order a
replacement battery.
RF542 transmitters use a 3.6V AA lithium thionyl chloride battery; this can be replaced by any brand of 3.6V AA lithium
battery.
