Product information

The Tadiran SL-560S is a special high-temperature lithium thionyl chloride battery in the widely used AA (Mignon) format. It has been designed for maximum reliability and long operating life under extreme thermal stress. With its ability to operate continuously at temperatures of up to +130 °C, it sets the standard for the most demanding industrial applications in the common AA format. It offers a nominal voltage of 3.6 V, a capacity of 1.7 Ah and, in this S version, is intended for use in battery holders.

Highlights at a glance

  • Extreme temperature range: Reliable operation from -55 °C to +130 °C.
  • Standardised format: AA / Mignon for broad compatibility in high temperature applications.
  • High capacity: 1.7 Ah especially for optimised use at high temperatures.
  • High nominal voltage: Stable voltage of 3.6 V even at extreme heat.
  • Outstanding longevity: Very low self-discharge and proven long-term stability.

Powerful in extreme applications

The Tadiran SL-560S was specifically developed for applications where standard lithium batteries would fail due to high temperatures. The standard AA size allows its use in many existing device designs. Its primary applications include oil and gas exploration (e.g. "downhole drilling" measurement technology), automotive applications in the engine compartment, monitoring industrial high-temperature processes, as well as use in autoclaves and medical sterilisation equipment.

Designed for maximum heat resistance

The exceptional thermal resistance of the SL-560S is based on its reinforced construction and an optimised electrolyte chemistry. The hermetic glass-to-metal seal is specially designed to maintain its integrity even under repeated temperature cycles and to prevent leaks. The non-flammable electrolyte and robust stainless steel housing ensure the highest level of safety, even at the upper limit of the temperature range.

Superior high temperature technology

The lithium thionyl chloride technology (Li-SOCl₂) of the SL-500 series is known for its longevity under extreme conditions. A characteristic feature is the passivation effect, which minimises self-discharge and enables a shelf life of over 10 years. This high-temperature variant retains its performance and reliability even under conditions far beyond the specifications of conventional batteries.

FAQs about this Tadiran high temperature battery

What distinguishes this battery from a standard Tadiran cell?

The main difference is the extended operating temperature range of up to +130 °C, whereas standard cells such as the SL-760 are only specified up to +85 °C. This is achieved by a special heat-resistant internal design and adapted chemistry, which ensures reliable operation in extreme heat.

For which applications is this battery type indispensable?

This battery type is required for all devices whose operating temperature rises permanently or periodically above +85 °C. Typical examples are measuring instruments in oil production, sensors in the engine compartment of vehicles or electronics used in industrial ovens or autoclaves.

Does this model have solder tabs or wires?

No, the SL-560S model 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 high temperature versions with various solder tabs.

Is this battery rechargeable?

No, this is a primary lithium battery and must under no circumstances be recharged. Attempting to charge the cell is extremely dangerous, especially at high temperatures.

Does the high temperature affect the service life of the battery?

Yes, as with any battery, permanently high operating temperature leads to increased self-discharge and can shorten the total service life compared to operation at room temperature. However, the SL-560S has been specially designed to minimise this effect and achieve the maximum possible service life under these tough conditions.
