• Measured at -60°C with 30 second sample rate
Note: Do not directly touch the battery poles and ensure that unused batteries
are placed at moderate ambient temperatures under +25 °C.
Note: The ValSuite software has a battery time manager feature that provides
an estimate of how much battery power is remaining. The feature cannot be
utilized if multiple batteries are being used in one data logger.
Note: Even though the batteries have a temperature range of -80 to +150 °C,
Ensure that the data loggers are not used outside their temperature range.
WARNING: All lithium batteries must always be stored separately before and
after use.
7.1.1. Proper Use of TrackSense
®
LyoPro Batteries
• The TrackSense LyoPro data loggers have a standby battery usage that
will empty the battery in approx.12 months, even if the data logger is
not used. It is therefore recommended to remove the battery from the
data logger when it is not used for several weeks
• If the battery is removed from the data logger for a longer period of
time (more than one week), it is necessary to reactivate the battery
again
• Only use Ellab batteries. The use of other batteries will void any
warranty on the equipment. Other batteries have not been tested in
extreme temperatures / environments and they can potentially cause
damage to the data logger
• When the voltage of the battery gets to a critically low level, the data
logger will perform a controlled shutdown in order to preserve the
data stored in the memory
• Ellab recommends that only batteries with more than 3.2V (if the
voltage is tested at ambient) are used. The voltage level of the battery
can be checked by inserting the battery into the activator unit and
then using a voltmeter to measure the voltage over the two poles of
the activator
• Stored batteries should not be exposed to temperatures over +25 °C
and they should be kept in a dry place prior to use
