BELT PACK CARE
PROPER CARE & MAINTENANCE OF UV-1G BELT PACK PRODUCTS
The plastics used to create UV-1G belt packs have been designed to provide protection for the valuable
circuitry inside the pack as well as keeping the form and function of the pack at the highest standards.
The material utilized for top, middle and bottom shells is PRL PC/ABS FR1-7001 and generally
considered ideal for day-to-day use and meets all applicable safety standards for flammability and heat
dissipation. The belt pack clips and battery latch plastic material is Radiflam A RV150 AF 333 NER,
which is a hardened plastic ideal to withstand greater pressure to ensure the clip and battery are
always working as intended. This material also meets all applicable safety standards for flammability
and heat dissipation.
Proper care of the plastics requires very little intervention from the end user; only a dry clean cloth
may be used to clean up and debris on the plastics. Great care should be taken NOT to allow any
chemical solutions (intentionally or otherwise) to come into contact with the plastics as this may cause
premature deterioration of the plastic material and could lead to a compromise in belt pack integrity,
which in turn could damage the circuitry inside.
The chemicals Citric Acid and Phenoxyethanol commonly found in many cleaning wipes and liquid
cleansers, will cause premature plastic degradation and lead to cracking and fractures of the Belt Pack
shell.
Any belt pack found to have compromised plastics (whether from drops or impacts creating cracks or
small hairline fractures that have developed over time) should be removed from service and sent in on
RMA for plastics replacement.
