1. HANDLING Do not open the battery system Do not crush or pierce the cells Do not short or terminal with conductors Do not reverse the polarity Do not submit to excessive mechanical stress Do not mix batteries of different types or mix new and old ones together Do not use the unit without its electronic management system Do not expose the unit to water or condensation Do not directly heat solder or throw into fire Such unsuitable use can cause leakage or spout vaporized electrolyte fumes and may cause fire or explosion 5 PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES The lithium thionyl chloride cell or battery described by this Battery Information Sheet is a sealed unit when offered for sale It is a manufactured article and does not expose the user to hazardous chemicals when used in accordance with manufacturer specifications Appearance Cylindrical shape Odour If leaking gives off a pungent corrosive odour Flash point Not applicable Flammability Not applicable Boiling Point Not applicable Melting Point Not applicable Vapor Pressure Not applicable Vapor Density Not applicable pH Not applicable Specific Gravity Not applicable Solubility in water Not applicable Solubility other Not applicable 6 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY The battery system is stable when handled and stored according to section 4 MATERIALS TO AVOID Oxidizing agents bases water Avoid electrolyte2. be submitted to any mechanical opening puncture immersion thermal burning heating to temperatures above the normal temperature range of the product or electrical abuse short circuit recharge forced discharge which will lead to the activation of safety valves and or the rupture of the battery container Any accidental release of the inner components of the cell or their combustion products could be highly hazardous Battery content exposition to air humidity liquid water may be followed by severe battery vent explosion fire depending on the hazard causes and circumstances Protection from charging Whenever lithium batteries are not the single power source in a circuit the following measures recommended by Underwriters Laboratories are relevant The cells should not be connected in series with an electrical power source that would increase the load through the cells The electronic circuit shall include one of the following A Two suitable diodes or the equivalent in series with the cells to prevent any reverse charging current The second diode is used to provide protection in the event that one would fail Quality control or equivalent procedures shall be established by the device manufacturer to check that the diode polarity is correct for each unit or B A blocking diode or the equivalent to prevent any reverse charging current and a resistor to limit current in case of diode failure The resistor should be sized to limit
