Saft LS33600 Primary Lithium Battery 3.6V Li-SOCl₂

Saft LS33600 3.6 V Primary Lithium-Thionyl Chloride D-Size Cell

The Saft LS33600 is a primary lithium battery based on lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl₂) chemistry, manufactured in a D-size bobbin cell format. It is designed to supply stable 3.6 V output over extended service periods in professional and industrial electronic systems.

Cell Construction and Core Features

• Primary (non-rechargeable) lithium-thionyl chloride chemistry
• Stainless steel container with hermetic glass-to-metal sealing
• Built-in safety vent and non-flammable electrolyte
• Low self-discharge rate of less than 1% per year at +20°C

Electrical Performance Characteristics

The LS33600 provides a nominal voltage of 3.6 V with an open-circuit voltage of approximately 3.67 V at +20°C. It offers a nominal capacity of 17.0 Ah and a nominal energy content of 61.2 Wh. The cell supports continuous currents up to 250 mA and is capable of handling short pulse currents typically up to 400 mA under defined conditions.

Intended Applications

• Utility metering and automatic meter reading systems
• Industrial and professional electronic equipment
