FAQs on the VARTA NiMH button cell V40H
What is the main area of application for this NiMH button cell?
The V40H is primarily designed as a backup power source for real-time clocks (RTC) and SRAM memory. It is integrated directly on a printed circuit board and is permanently charged by the device circuit to secure the stored data in the event of a power failure.
Is this cell suitable for charging with external chargers?
No, this cell is an industrial cell designed for installation and charging via a defined charging circuit within a device. It is not intended for handling by end users or for use in conventional chargers.
What advantages does NiMH offer compared to a lithium primary cell for backup purposes?
While lithium primary cells have a higher voltage and energy density, the main advantage of the NiMH cell is its rechargeability. It does not need to be replaced during the product's lifetime, which reduces maintenance costs and makes it ideal for sealed or hard-to-access devices.
How is this cell mounted on a printed circuit board?
The V40H is typically assembled with welded solder tags (so-called "tags") and then soldered onto the printed circuit board. Delivery is usually as a raw cell, which is then fitted with the appropriate connections according to customer requirements.
How must this battery cell be disposed of?
Batteries may not be disposed of with household waste. As an industrial battery, it is subject to the provisions of the Battery Act. Please take used battery cells to the designated industrial or municipal collection points to ensure proper and environmentally friendly recycling.
