Operation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting
Sensor Batteries
Sensor battery type, length of life, and installation are covered in this section.
Battery Type
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
The batteries are manufactured in a ready-to-use state. They are not designed for
recharging. Recharging can cause battery leakage or, in some cases, can cause
the safety release vent to open.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
Do not attempt to hook up the WZS to a power supply. Equipment damage may
result.
Use non-rechargeable 1.5 volt AA lithium batteries in the sensor. Two batteries
are required. To maintain UL rating, only UL-listed lithium batteries should be
used. The sensor ships with Energizer™ L91 batteries already installed.
Note: The sensor is shipped with an insulation barrier between the batteries
(Figure 18) to prevent discharging of the batteries during shipment and
storage. Remove this barrier when installing the sensor (see “Powering
the Sensor and Associating the Sensor to the Receiver,” p. 26).
