Charging the Lithium-Ion Battery Pack
For models containing a lithium-ion battery pack only.
Shown with single charger (Cat. No. 222-241). A
fi ve-station charger is available; see Accessories
on page 18. Follow charger instructions.
Completely charge a new battery pack
before operating the pump. It may be
necessary to charge the battery a few
times before maximum battery capacity
is achieved.
Intrinsic safety circuitry inside the
battery causes the pump to self-
discharge during storage. Charge
Li-Ion pump battery completely
before calibration and sampling to
achieve optimum pump operation.
1. For a complete charge, ensure the pump is not running. Insert plug on charging
unit into the battery charging jack on back of pump. Ensure plug is oriented so
that the arrow on the plug is facing upward.
Ensure proper orientation of charging cable before plugging it into
the charging jack. Improper orientation/contact will short circuit the
battery and voids any warranty.
Short circuiting the battery pack will render it immediately inoperative.
2. Insert plug on power supply into jack on charging unit.
3. Pull locking tab to side and insert appropriate
wall plug into power supply. Release locking
tab. Plug power supply into a wall outlet.
The standard 2-cell Li-Ion battery pack will
recharge in approximately 4 hours. The high-
power 4-cell Li-Ion battery pack will recharge in
approximately 8 hours. Run pump for 5 minutes
after charging is complete.
After charging the battery pack, it is good practice to run the pump for
approximately 5 minutes before calibrating. This ensures the battery is in
more steady-state conditions and improves the agreement in pre and post-
sampling calibrations.
The battery pack may be kept on SKC-approved Li-Ion battery chargers for
an indefi nite time.
