How long does the battery last?

    Battery life depends on the following two factors:

    • Ambient temperature
    • Lubricant quantity and interval

    Therefore is not possible to give a precise figure. The storage period of the battery is stated on the battery.

     
    NOTE
    Empty battery

    A battery charge lasts for one cartridge only and for a maximum of 3 years (P1 ≤ 36 months). An empty battery causes material damage to the entire plant due to inadequate lubrication.

    • Replace the battery simultaneously with the cartridge
    • Use only Güdel batteries. Only then can a sufficient battery charge be guaranteed.
    • Immediately replace the battery when error message E3 appears

    The temperature has an effect on the battery charge:

    • Temperatures above 40°C cause irreversible self-discharge or failure of the battery
    • Temperatures below 20°C reversibly lower the battery charge, but may cause the battery to fail in exceptional cases
