Electrical characteristics
(typical values relative to cells stored for one year or less at + 30°C max.)
Nominal capacity
17.0 Ah
(at 5 mA + 20°C 2.0 V cut-off. The capacity restored by the cell varies according to current drain, temperature and cut-off)
Open circuit voltage
(at + 20°C)
Nominal voltage
(at 0.7 mA + 20°C)
3.67 V
3.6 V
Nominal energy
61.2 Wh
Pulse capability: Typically up to 400 mA
(400 mA/0.1 second pulses, drained every 2 mn at + 20°C from undischarged cells with 10 µA
base current, yield voltage readings above 3.0 V. The readings may vary according to the pulse
characteristics, the temperature, and the cell’s previous history. Fitting the cell with a capacitor
may be recommended in severe conditions. Consult Saft)
Maximum recommended continuous current
(to maintain cell heating within safe limits. Battery packs may imply lower
level of maximum current and may request specific thermal protection.
Consult Saft)
Storage
(recommended)
(for more severe conditions, consult Saft)
Operating temperature range
(Operation above ambient T may lead to reduced capacity and lower voltage readings at the beginning of pulses. Consult Saft)

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
100°C (212°F), incinerate,
or expose contents to water.
•Do not solder directly to the cell
(use tabbed cell versions instead).
