Description
Details of Li-Ion Controller Battery
The 44E8826 IBM Li-Ion Controller Battery is a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that serves as a backup power source for the IBM Server RAID MR10i controller.
The battery provides power to the RAID controller in the event of a power failure, allowing it to complete any pending write operations to the hard drives and preserve the data integrity. The battery has a capacity of 7.2V and a run time of around 15 minutes, depending on the system load.
It is designed to be easily installed and replaced by the user, with no special tools required. The battery is also designed with safety in mind, and it has built-in protection against overcharging, overheating, and short-circuiting.
The battery also has a low voltage detection feature that alerts the user when the battery charge is low, allowing them to replace the battery before it fails.
It’s important to note that the 44E8826 IBM Li-Ion Controller Battery must be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions for safety and to avoid damage to the battery and the device it is intended for. It’s also important to recycle and properly dispose of the battery in accordance with local regulations and laws.
Environmental and Regulatory Compliance
The 44E8826 IBM Li-Ion Controller Battery is designed to comply with various environmental and regulatory standards. These standards ensure that the battery is safe to use, transport and dispose of, and that it does not cause harm to the environment.
One of the standards that the battery is compliant with is the RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) directive. This directive restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. The battery is free of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE).
Another standard that the battery is compliant with is the UN38.3 (United Nations Transportation Test Procedures for Lithium Batteries) which regulates the transport of lithium-ion batteries by air. This standard ensures that the battery is safe to transport and that it can withstand various environmental conditions such as vibration, shock and temperature extremes.
The Battery also compliant with IEC 62133 Safety standard for portable sealed secondary lithium cells and batteries.
It’s important to note that compliance with these standards does not guarantee that the battery is safe in all conditions, so it’s still important to handle, use, and dispose of the battery in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions and local regulations to ensure safety and minimize environmental impact.
Battery Safety
The 44E8826 IBM Li-Ion Controller Battery is designed with safety in mind to minimize the risk of injury or damage to the user and the device it is intended for.
One of the safety features of the battery is its built-in protection against overcharging, overheating, and short-circuiting. Overcharging can cause damage to the battery and shorten its lifespan, overheating can cause a fire hazard and short-circuiting can cause the battery to fail. The battery’s built-in protection helps to prevent these hazards.
The battery also has a low voltage detection feature that alerts the user when the battery charge is low, allowing them to replace the battery before it fails.
It’s important to handle the battery with care, as physical damage such as punctures or dents can cause a short circuit and potentially lead to a fire hazard. It’s also important to use the battery only in the device it is intended for, as using it in other devices can lead to damage or injury.
It’s also important to recycle and properly dispose of the battery in accordance with local regulations and laws.
It’s also important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for safe handling, installation, and replacement of the battery.
