• When charging the CSI 2140 with the battery pack or the battery pack by itself,
ensure the ambient temperature where charging is occurring is 50° F to 95° F (10° C
to 35° C).
• When operating the CSI 2140 with the battery pack, ensure the ambient
temperature where the analyzer is being used is -4° F to 122° F ( -20° C to 50° C).
Prevent battery degradation
When storing the CSI 2140 with the battery pack or storing the battery pack by itself for a
prolonged period of time:
• Ensure the ambient temperature where the battery pack is located is -4° F to 95° F
( -20° C to 35° C). Due to the chemical composition of Lithium-Ion battery
technology, over time there will be some degradation that results in a reduced
charge capacity and performance. This degradation is unavoidable and irreversible.
Prolonged storage at temperatures outside this range, especially temperatures
above the high end, speeds up the degradation process.
• Disconnect the power supply from the CSI 2140 or the battery pack.
• When storing for 1-3 months, Emerson recommends removing the battery pack
from the CSI 2140.
• When storing the battery for longer than 3 months, contact Technical Support to
learn how to enter storage mode. Storage mode protects the battery during long
term storage. In storage mode, the analyzer and battery are non-functional. The
analyzer does not power on and the battery LEDs do not operate. Connect the
charger to the unit to reactivate the battery.
Note
If you do not enter storage mode, ensure the battery capacity is approximately 40 percent
and periodically recharge the battery pack (to approximately 40 percent charge capacity)
during storage to ensure the battery does not drain to low levels.
Prevent damage
To prevent damage to the analyzer:
• Do not connect a signal larger than 0 to 24 volts into the Accel input of the CSI 2140.
• Do not connect a signal larger than +/- 24 volts into the Volts / Tach input of the CSI
2140.
1.5 Technical Support and Customer Service
When you contact Technical Support, be ready with a screen capture of the error message
and details such as when and how the error occurred.
