5.2.4 Battery lifespan / capacity
The Real Time Clock (RTC) of the FLOWSIC600 is buffered by a battery. The manufacturer
states that the battery life span is at least ten years. The remaining battery capacity can be
viewed on the LCD in the first menu level (see Technical Information).

Because the FLOWSIC600 has no regular maintenance cycle, the system alarm "Battery
lifetime" is generated when the remaining battery life is less than 15%. This alarm forces
the operator to change the battery (
 pg. 101, 6.2.1). A logbook entry is also generated.
Optionally, the user can choose an additional user warning for the battery lifespan (see
Technical Information).
