SAFT BA5380

Primary lithium battery system
BA 5380
6 V Primary lithium manganese dioxide (Li-MnO2) battery
The battery consists of 2 LM 33550 cells
connected in series.
Key Features
■■ A non-replaceable fuse is
incorporated on the battery negative
■■ A normally closed thermal fuse (TCO)
is incorporated in the battery. It is
non-replaceable and non-resettable
■■ A blocking diode is incorporated to
prevent charging
■■ A non-replaceable fuse is connected
between the two cells for added safety
■■ A complete discharge device (CDD)
with LED activation indicator is built
into the battery. The CDD consists of
a manually activated switch to connect
a resistor for discharging the battery
to 0 V
■■ Made in the U.S.A.
Typical applications
■■ AN/PSN-11 GPS
■■ AN/PSN-10 (V) GPS
■■ Chemical Agent Monitor
