1.3 Battery Compartment
Two thumb screws on the battery compartment cover allow quick access to the
lithium-ion battery pack without the need for tools (see Figure 1-20 on page 40).
The battery compartment cover also has a small hole in the bottom center area that is
covered on the inside by an environmentally sealed membrane vent.
The membrane vent is a safety feature that is required in the event that the instrument
battery fails and emits gas. This vent must not be punctured.
Figure 1-20 The battery compartment
The EPOCH 650 ultrasonic flaw detector accepts one rechargeable lithium-ion battery
pack (P/N: 600-BAT-L-3 [U8051431]) that can be recharged inside the instrument or on
the optional external charging base (P/N: EPXT-EC-X).
