Connection & Operating Recommendations
For reliable operation, use a charging circuit and power-management arrangement specifically designed for a single-cell lithium polymer battery. Ensure that the connected device operates within the battery’s voltage, discharge and temperature limits.
- Use a Dedicated Li-Po Charger: Charge with a single-cell 4.2V CC/CV lithium battery charging circuit. Do not connect the battery directly to an unregulated power supply.
- Respect the Discharge Rating: The stated 0.5C rate corresponds to a calculated current of 750mA. Do not treat this calculation as confirmation of a continuous-current rating.
- Observe Polarity: Connect the positive and negative battery terminals according to the actual battery wiring and the device’s power input requirements. Incorrect polarity can damage the battery or connected electronics.
- Avoid Overcharging and Excessive Discharging: Use a compatible charging and battery-management circuit. Do not assume the PCM replaces a properly designed charger.
- Maintain Suitable Temperature: Keep the battery within its specified operating temperature range during use and avoid direct sunlight or excessive heat.
- Disconnect During Extended Storage: Disconnect the battery from the device when it is not in use for an extended period and store it in a suitable non-conductive, fire-resistant location.
- Allow Cooling Before Charging: Do not charge a battery that remains warm after use. Allow it to return to a suitable temperature before charging.
- Prevent Physical Damage: Avoid puncturing, crushing, bending or short-circuiting the pouch cell, as physical damage can create a battery safety hazard.
