Disposing of the Battery
Refer to the Allen-Bradley Guidelines for Lithium Battery Handling and
Disposal, publication AG-5.4.
Do not dispose of lithium batteries in a general trash collection when their
combined weight is greater than or equal to 1/2 gram. A single 1770-XYC
battery contains .65 grams of lithium. Check your state and local
regulations that deal with the disposal of lithium batteries. Follow these
guidelines when you dispose of a control-coprocessor battery:
ATTENTION: Follow these precautions:
Do not incinerate or expose the battery to high temperatures.
Do not solder the battery or leads; the battery could explode.
Do not open, puncture, or crush the battery. It could explode; and
toxic, corrosive, and flammable chemicals could be exposed.
Do not charge the battery. An explosion might result, or the cell might
overheat and cause burns.
Do not short positive or negative terminals together. The battery will
heat up.
