Shipping considerations for wireless products (Lithium Batteries: Green Power Module, model number 701PGNKF):

The unit was shipped to you without the Power Module installed. Please remove the Power Module from the unit prior to shipping.

Each power module contains a primary lithium-thionyl chloride battery. Primary lithium batteries are regulated in transportation by the U.S. Department of Transportation, and are also covered by IATA (International Air Transport Association), ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), and ARD (European Ground Transportation of Dangerous Goods). It is the responsibility of the shipper to ensure compliance with these or any other local requirements. Please consult current regulations and requirements before shipping.

The Power Module contains a primary lithium-thionyl chloride battery (Green Power Module, model number 701PGNKF). Each Power Module contains approximately 5 grams of lithium. Under normal conditions, the Power Module materials are self-contained and are not reactive as long as the batteries and the module integrity are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical or mechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent premature discharge. Power Module hazards remain when cells are discharged.

Power Module should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximum battery life, storage temperature should not exceed 86 °F (30 °C).

Emerson Process Management Instrument and Valve Response Center representatives will explain the additional information and procedures necessary to return goods exposed to hazardous substances.
