EaglePicher Medical Power Announces New Li/CFx Battery Technology
Posted on: Monday, 11 May 2009, 15:19 CDT
Enhanced design now features End-of-Life capability and longer life
"This enhanced chemistry delivers several benefits - to device manufacturers, physicians and patients. In addition to the new end-of-life feature, this proprietary chemistry provides superior energy density for longer battery life," said
The enhanced Li/CFx battery chemistry provides higher energy density for use in a variety of implantable applications including telemetry-capable pacemakers and ICDs, neurostimulation devices, drug pumps, body fluid pumps and monitors.
Benefits include:
- Proprietary ERI/EOL indicator for safe and predictable replacement prior to end of battery life
- Superior energy density enabling longer life or potentially smaller devices
- Excellent rate capability for rapid capacitor charging throughout most of the battery life
- Telemetry capability
- Elimination of the initial voltage delay commonly seen in Li/CFx batteries
- Low self-discharge
The new technology will be available in a number of configurations ranging from under 350 mAh to 10 Ah.
