3.10.3 Storage
• During storage keep the system connected
to the mains power supply so that the
batteries maintain a full charge.
• If the system is disconnected from a power
source, ensure the batteries are fully
charged before storage to avoid
deterioration of battery performance.
• When the system is disconnected from a
mains power supply, a fully charged battery
can be stored in the FLOW-i system for up
to six weeks at temperatures between +5°C
(+40°F) and +40°C (+105°F). At
temperatures between +50°C (+125°F) and
60°C (+140°F) storage time is one week. If
these limits are exceeded, battery
performance can no longer can be
guaranteed.
• MAQUET recommends that the vaporizers
are emptied before long term storage (>30
days).
• For fire safety purposes, the system
requires functional batteries for system
Startup.
• Ensure the system is not exposed to
temperatures below -25
o
C (-13
o
F) or above
+60
o
C (140
o
F).
• For information on CO

absorber storage,
see Chapter 7, page 128.
• Ensure the system is not exposed to a
relative humidity above 95%.
