The rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are specially designed
for use with the powered air purifying respirator. A long-life
rechargeable battery is also available in addition to the
standard rechargeable battery.
Rechargeable batteries for the different X-plore 8500 and
X-plore 8700 device types cannot be interchanged.
The battery status indicator shows the battery capacity while
you charge the unit with the standard charger or when you
push the button. The segments of the battery status indicator
are flashing while you charge the unit.
The battery status indicator is identical to the one on the
blower unit control panel (see chapter 2.2.1 Blower unit).
The rechargeable batteries reach their full capacity after
5 charge and discharge cycles. The standard charging time
takes approx. 3 hours.
In cases where the rechargeable battery has been completely
drained, charging may take up to 4 hours. During this time the
battery status indicator is not supported.
To prevent damage to or explosion of the rechargeable
battery, charging is limited to a temperature range of 0 to
50 °C. If this temperature range is exited, the charging
process will stop automatically and continue once within the
temperature range again.
