Lithium primary cell gives a 12%
capacity boost
Saft's new LS 33600C primary lithium cell has a nominal capacity of 18.5Ah, 12 per cent higher than Saft's existing high-capacity D-size lithium cell.
Saft's new LS 33600C primary lithium cell has a nominal capacity of 18.5Ah, 12 per cent higher than Saft's existing high-capacity D-size lithium cell Its high 3.6V nominal voltage and standard D-size cylindrical format makes it a particularly versatile power source for small electronic products such as measurement devices, tracking and navigation equipment as well as utility meters

Lithium batteries vital in flight defibrillators
How the LO26SHX lithium sulphur dioxide 12 Volt primary battery pack powers LIFEPAK 500 automated external defibrillator.
The bobbin construction of the LS lithium-thionyl chloride cells gives very high capacity, and low self-discharge - less than 1 per cent after one year of storage at 20°C.
LS cells have a very long life during storage and in low- and medium-power applications.
The LS 33600C cell is optimized for load profiles with a small (10-100microamp) quiescent drain and pulses of 10-130mA, typical of many metering and instrumentation devices, where a single cell would provide sufficient capacity for a lifetime of around a decade.
Saft's LS range also includes cells in standard ½ AA, AA, and C sizes.
All can operate in extreme temperatures from -60°C to +75°C, and all are built from stainless steel containers, hermetically sealed and with a built-in safety vent.
They are designated non-restricted for transportation, and have Underwriters Laboratories (UL) recognition. Request a free brochure from Saft Lithium Battery Division ...
