LM 33600
Primary Li-MnO2 cell
3 V lithium manganese dioxide D-size spiral cell
Saft’s LM 33600 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
■■ Integrated safety vent
■■ Non corrosive electrolyte
■■ Non pressurized at room temperature
■■ Restricted for transport (Class 9)
■■ RoHS and REACH compliant
■■ Made in USA
Designed to meet all major quality,
safety and environment standards
■■ Safety: UL 1642 and IEC 60086-4
■■ Transport: UN 3090 and UN 3091
■■ Quality: ISO 9001, Saft World Class
Continuous program
Typical Applications
■■ Utility metering
■■ Alarms and security
■■ GSM/GPRS communication
■■ Radio communications systems
■■ Medical devices
