Tadiran SL-886P Lithium battery 1/6 D with 3.6 V and 1.7 Ah, with pins

The Tadiran SL-886P is a primary high-performance lithium thionyl chloride battery in the special size 1/6 D. It is characterised by an exceptionally high energy density and offers a very high capacity of 1.7 Ah in an extremely compact housing. This version is equipped with robust pins for direct and secure mounting on circuit boards. With its nominal voltage of 3.6 V, it is the ideal energy solution for professional and long-lasting electronics with special space requirements.

Highlights at a glance

• Very high energy density: 1.7 Ah capacity in special 1/6 D compact form factor.
• For PCB mounting: Pre-assembled with pins for a robust and durable soldered connection.
• High rated voltage: Stable voltage of 3.6 V for almost the entire service life.
• 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-886P was specifically developed for demanding applications that require a high and long-lasting energy reserve in the smallest of spaces. Its main areas of use include professional medical technology, military communication and monitoring systems, industrial sensors, and other specialised electronic devices where standard sizes cannot be used.

Designed for maximum safety and efficiency

The safety and longevity of the SL-886P are based on the 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 degree of intrinsic safety. Each cell is designed to deliver its energy constantly and safely over a very long period of time, which minimises maintenance costs and lowers the total operating costs of your application.

Superior lithium thionyl chloride technology

Lithium thionyl chloride technology (Li-SOCl₂) is the gold standard for long-term applications with low power requirements. A characteristic feature is the passivation effect: a thin protective layer forms on the lithium anode, which reduces self-discharge to an absolute minimum and thus enables extremely long storage and operating capability. This ensures that the energy remains reliably available even after many years.

FAQs about this Tadiran battery

What is special about the 1/6 D size?

The 1/6 D size is a specialised industrial form factor and not a common consumer standard. It was developed to provide high capacity in devices with special, compact space requirements where standard sizes such as AA do not fit.

What does connection with pins mean?

This model is equipped with connection pins that enable an extremely robust and mechanically stable connection when soldered directly onto a printed circuit board (PCB). This is especially important for devices that are exposed to shocks or vibrations.

For which applications is this battery type suitable?

This type of battery is ideal for specialised professional electronic devices in which the battery is permanently soldered in and a very long service life in a compact housing is essential. Typical applications can be found in medical technology, military equipment, and industrial sensor technology.

Is this battery rechargeable?

No, this is a primary lithium battery and under no circumstances should it be charged. 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 prolonged storage, a protective layer forms on the lithium surface. This layer is responsible for the extremely low self-discharge. During the first load, especially with higher currents, it may cause a short voltage delay. This should be taken into account in the circuit design of the application.
