PowerBlock Battery Safety Measures
These safety measures must be followed, when working with the PowerBlock battery:
l Only use the charger recommended by FARO to charge the battery.
l Do not charge or discharge damaged batteries.
l Do not charge the battery in the laser scanner while it is stored in the transport case.
l Do not use wet or dirty batteries in the FAROFocus Premium or with the charger.
l Charge between 0°C and +45°C (+32°F and +113°F) environmental temperature. Recommended
charging temperatures: +10°C to +30°C (50°F to +86°F).
l Discharge between -10°C and +55°C (14°F and +131°F) environmental temperature.
Recommended operating temperatures: +5°C to +40°C (+41°F to +104°F).
l Insert or remove batteries from the laser scanner in dry, dust-free environments only.
l When the FAROFocus Premium is not in use for long periods of time, remove the battery.
l Store the battery only when it is charged at about 30% of a full charge. We recommend charging the
battery to 30% once a year while it is in long-term storage.
l Storage temperatures when at 30% charge are:
1 month: -20°C to 60°C (14°F to 140°F)
3 months: -20°C to 45°C (14°F to 113°F)
1 year: -20°C to 25°C (14°F to 77°F)
l Storage humidity range is 0% to 80%. Store in a well-ventilated area. Do not store with metal objects.
A short circuit can cause a fire.
l Do not bring metal objects into contact with the batteries' terminals. The terminals may short-circuit
and generate heat.
l Do not immerse batteries into water or fire (danger of explosion).
l Dispose of batteries in accordance with environmental regulations. Contact your local waste disposal
management authority for guidelines concerning lithium-ion batteries.
