SKC Sample Pump Battery Pack
Characteristics and Maintenance
SKC sample pumps use rechargeable battery packs that contain NiCad, NiMH, or Li-Ion cells. Each battery chemistry has
unique features and requirements. Batteries are perishable products that begin to age upon manufacture. Battery cycle life is
not only predicated on the chemical makeup of the cells, but also on conditions of use such as temperature and pattern of use.
Following recommended use, maintenance, and storage procedures will maximize each chemistrys advantages, minimize the
disadvantages, and provide for optimal battery performance and cycle life.
