Li - ion batteries are now essential in energy storage. Their high energy density gives them advantages well-known in terms of weight and volume. Other assets such as life in cycling, their low self-discharge to develop many applications. Thanks to our partners in Lithium ion, we have access to a very wide range of cells, as well as full technical support. Several technologies are available (LiFePO4...) each with their specific features and benefits.
Foreword
Our products are not the object of specific provisions against contamination. If necessary, these operations are the responsibility of the Integrator.

Safety instructions for the use of lithium-ion batteries
The cells contain flammable products such as organic solvents. If the lithium-ion battery is poorly managed, this can cause a fire, the smoke or an explosion and the battery performance will be seriously damaged.

Precautions for use of your battery
Use under the Sun
Do not leave the battery near a heat source such as in a car in the Sun. The battery could catch fire, emit smoke, explode or cause a strong generation of heat. The characteristics of the battery and its lifetime could be degraded.
Static electricity
The battery contains an electronic circuit. Do not use the battery in a place where static electricity is generated. This might degrade the protection circuit. If the protection circuit is damaged, the battery could catch fire, emit smoke, explode or cause a strong generation of heat.
Temperature load
Temperature load must be regulated between 0 ° C and 45 ° C. Do not charge the battery outside the specified temperature range. Otherwise, it could cause a strong increase in heat, leaks or damage. The characteristics of the battery and its lifetime could be degraded.
First use
Contact VLAD if the battery has a suspicious smell, a warm-up or corrosion on first use.
Use by children
It is the responsibility of the parents to explain the use of the system and battery to the children. Check regularly that children use the system and the battery correctly.
Flammable materials
Keep the battery away from flammable materials during charge and discharge. The battery could catch fire, emit smoke, explode or cause a strong generation of heat.
Leak
If the battery leaks and that the liquid comes in contact with the skin or clothing, rinse with clear water. Otherwise this could cause irritation.
Insulation
If cables or metal parts out of the battery, isolate them completely. Otherwise, the battery may be short-circuited, catch fire, emit smoke, explode or cause a strong generation of heat.

Instructions to charge for Lithium Ion batteries
Charger must integrate surge protection so that the output voltage does not exceed x 4.3V Ns and protection on current to avoid that the output current exceeds the normal charge current the charger failure.
Instructions to charge for Lithium iron Phosphate (LFP or LiFePO4) batteries
Charger must integrate surge protection so that the output voltage does not exceed 3.8V x Ns and protection on current to avoid that the output current exceeds the normal charge current the charger failure.

Other remarks
If there are misunderstandings in this instructions sheet, VLAD will take your comments into consideration.
VLAD can exchange data or precautions that are not described in this instruction sheet.
Warranty period for the battery
The warranty period is defined by our terms and conditions. VLAD will replace batteries if it is established that there is a defect in our manufacturing process and that the battery has been used wisely according to the specification of the application.
Security requirements of the battery
To ensure the safety of the battery, contact your sales VLAD to discuss the design of the application of a mechanical, electrical and electronic point of view. If your application or device must satisfy special conditions (strong current appeal, transitional effects, approvals, forced CEM...) or a special application, contact your sales VLAD to check or / and set the specification of the battery.
