Product Overview
The Saft LM17500 is a high-power, A-size primary lithium cylindrical battery cell designed to deliver reliable performance in demanding, high-drain industrial applications. Engineered with Lithium Manganese Dioxide ($\text{Li-MnO}_2$) chemistry and spiral construction, the LM17500 offers exceptional energy density, high pulse current capability (up to 2.0A), and stable output even in harsh environments.
Whether powering utility smart meters, IoT devices, tracking equipment, or security hardware, the LM17500 ensures maximum runtime and long-term shelf life with minimal self-discharge.
Key Applications: Smart metering, asset tracking, military electronics, marine safety, medical equipment, commercial security devices, and ATEX/intrinsically safe systems.
Key Features & Benefits
-
High Pulse & Continuous Power: Spiral construction allows for continuous discharge up to 1.5A and pulse capability up to 2.0A.
-
Low Self-Discharge & Long Shelf Life: Stores for up to 10 years with less than 1% capacity loss per year at room temperature.
-
Extreme Temperature Resistance: Operates reliably across a broad range from -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to +158°F).
-
Passivation Resistant: Excellent resistance to voltage delay and passivation, ensuring immediate power delivery even after extended storage.
-
Intrinsically Safe Design: Complies with strict ATEX and IEC safety standards for high-power industrial uses.
