Leakage detection (advanced version only) will affect battery operation time if a higher
excitation frequency is selected during leakage period.
The effect of other temperatures is shown in the figure below.
A variation in temperature from 15 °C to 55 °C (59 °F to 131 °F) reduces the capacity by 17%
(in the table from 15 Ah to 12½ Ah).

Note
Installation orientation of battery pack may influence battery capacity. Optimal battery capacity
is achieved with battery pack in an upright position.

Typical operation time of 6 years is based on only 80% battery capacity and an operation time/
temperature profile of 5% at 0 °C (32 °F), 80% at 15 °C (59 °F) and 15% at 50 °C (122 °F),
and no use of add-on communication module.
