LM17500 STD

## LM 17500 Primary Li-MnO2 cell 

## 3 V lithium manganese dioxide A-size spiral cell 

Saft’s LM 17500 cell is ideally suited for applications requiring high energy and long operating life, with stable voltage under high discharge rates in –40°C / +85°C environment. 

## Benefits 

- High drain/ high pulse capability 

- High voltage response, stable during most of the lifetime of the application even after long dormant periods 

- High capacity at high current and low temperature 

- Low self discharge compatible with long operating life (less than 1% after 1 year of storage at +20°C) 

- Superior resistance to corrosion 

- Low magnetic signature 

## Key Features 

- Spiral construction 

- Hermetic construction with glass to metal seal 

- Stainless steel container

## Storage 

- The storage area should be clean, cool (preferably not exceeding +30°C), dry and ventilated. 

## Warning 

- Fire, explosion and burn hazard. 

- Do not recharge, short circuit, crush, disassemble, heat above 85°C, incinerate, or expose contents to water. 

- Do not solder directly to the cell (use tabbed cell versions instead).
