Battery Lifetime Management
The lifetime of a Lithium Ion battery depends on the frequency and duration of use.
CL Transducers
Battery replacement is recommended after 500 charge-discharge cycles, or if the battery is older than
4 years whatever is reached first. If the battery of a cableless transducer has aged and an exchange of
the battery is highly recommended, a prompt message is displayed at the fetal monitor for ca.
60 seconds. The prompt is repeated whenever the
Tele Info window is opened until the battery is
replaced. The CL transducer battery allows for 10 hours of continuous operation.
Depending on the transducer type the following messages are displayed:
cl US battery has aged. Replacement strongly recommended
cl Toco battery has aged. Replacement strongly recommended
cl ECG/IUP batt has aged. Replacement strongly recommended
If you are getting this message, contact your service personnel so they can replace the CL transducer's
battery.
CL F&M Pod
Pod replacement is recommended after 500 charge-discharge cycles, or if the battery is older than
4 years whatever is reached first. If the battery of a CL F&M Pod has aged and an exchange of the Pod
is highly recommended, a prompt message is displayed at the fetal monitor for ca. 60 seconds. The
prompt is repeated whenever the
Tele Info window is opened. The CL F&M battery allows for 16
hours of continuous operation.
The following message is displayed:
cl F&M battery has aged. Replacement strongly recommended
If you are getting this message, contact your service personnel so they can replace the CL F&M Pod.
CL Wide Range Pod
Battery replacement is recommended after 500 charge-discharge cycles, or if the battery is older than
4 years whatever is reached first. If the battery of a CL Wide Range Pod has aged and an exchange of
the battery is highly recommended, a prompt message is displayed at the fetal monitor for ca.
60 seconds. The prompt is repeated whenever the
Tele Info window is opened until the battery is
replaced. The CL Wide Range Pod battery allows for 4 hours of continuous operation
The following message is displayed:
cl WRP battery has aged. Replacement strongly recommended
CL NBP and CL SpO
2
Pods
For battery charge-discharge cycles specification of the IntelliVue CL Pods (NBP and SpO
2
), refer to
the Service Guide of the Cableless Measurements.
Charge Cycle
The age of a lithium ion battery begins at the date of manufacture. The lithium batteries are designed
for frequent recharging. A complete charging cycle is only reached and counted, when all recharging
periods equal a 100% charge.
