Tadiran SL-360S Lithium battery AA with 3.6 V and 2.4 Ah

Description

Product information

The Tadiran SL-360S from the iXtra Series is a primary lithium thionyl chloride battery in the size AA (Mignon). It has been specially developed for applications that require a long service life in combination with moderate current capacity. With a high nominal voltage of 3.6 V and a very high capacity of 2.4 Ah, it is the ideal energy solution for professional electronics that regularly require moderate current pulses. This model is the standard version for use in battery holders.

Highlights at a glance

  • Optimised for moderate loads: High capacity and stable voltage even with moderate current requirements.
  • Very high capacity: 2.4 Ah for a maximum extended and self-sufficient operating time.
  • High rated voltage: Stable voltage of 3.6 V for almost the entire lifetime.
  • Maximum reliability: Proven long-term stability and low self-discharge.
  • Wide temperature range: Reliable operation from -55 °C to +85 °C.

Powerful in a wide range of applications

The Tadiran SL-360S was specifically developed for applications where longevity and improved performance output are crucial. Its primary uses include wireless alarm and security systems, GPS tracking modules, professional radios, data loggers, as well as industrial counters and measuring instruments (metering) that regularly transmit data. It is the ideal choice for all devices that operate independently for years and periodically require power for transmission or measurement operations.

Designed for maximum safety and efficiency

The safety and longevity of the SL-360S is based on proven Tadiran design. The cell has a hermetic glass-to-metal seal that reliably prevents the electrolyte from leaking. The inorganic electrolyte used is non-flammable and ensures a high level of intrinsic safety. Each cell is designed to supply its energy consistently and safely over a very long period, minimising maintenance costs and reducing the total operating costs of your application.

iXtra Series: The technology for higher performance

The iXtra Series from Tadiran is designed to provide improved voltage stability under load. Compared to the standard series (SL-700), which is optimised for minimal continuous currents, the SL-300 series offers better performance with moderate load requirements and pulse currents. The passivation effect is thus overcome more quickly, resulting in a more stable power supply for applications that regularly "wake up" to perform tasks.

FAQs about this Tadiran battery

What is the difference between the SL-300 (iXtra) and the SL-700 series?

The SL-300 (iXtra) series, which this cell belongs to, is optimised for applications with moderate current requirements (e.g. wireless sensors). It provides more stable voltage under load. The SL-700 series, on the other hand, is designed for absolute long-term use with minimal continuous current, such as in pure memory back-up applications.

For which applications is this battery type suitable?

This battery type is ideal for professional electronics that require long service life but regularly need power for functions such as sending data. Examples include wireless alarm systems, GPS trackers, data loggers and industrial wireless sensors.

Does this model have solder terminals or wires?

No, the model SL-360S is the standard version with normal battery contacts and is intended for use in a suitable AA battery holder. For direct installation, Tadiran also offers versions of this cell type with various solder terminals.

Is this battery rechargeable?

No, this is a primary lithium battery and must not be charged under any circumstances. Attempting to charge the cell is dangerous and can lead to overheating, leakage or bursting of the cell.

What does the passivation effect mean for this battery?

After longer storage, a protective layer forms on the lithium surface which minimises self-discharge. The iXtra Series is designed so that this layer breaks down more quickly and with less voltage drop under load than with the SL-700 Series, which is advantageous for applications with regular current pulses.

At the latest, if the light no longer passes the annual endurance test for the full emergency lighting period, the battery must be replaced immediately. The typical lifespan of a NiMH battery in this application is approximately 4 years.Why is it important to use the exactly matching plug?The JST plug is a widely used standard in electronics. Using the appropriate pre-assembled plug ensures a polarity-safe and electrically flawless connection to the luminaire electronics. DIY solutions using screw terminals or adhesive tape are not permitted in safety-relevant systems.Can I replace this battery with one with a higher capacity (mAh)?As a rule, this is possible as long as the voltage (4.8V), technology (NiMH) and design are identical. A higher capacity will result in a longer emergency lighting period. However, you must ensure that the battery physically fits into the luminaire housing.How should this battery be disposed of?Batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. As a used device battery, you can return it free of charge at collection points in retail or at municipal recycling centres (e.g. via the GRS collection boxes) to ensure professional and environmentally friendly recycling.
