Introduction
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.
1.7 Product Recycling/Disposal
Recycling of equipment and packaging should be taken into consideration and disposed of in
accordance with local and national legislation/regulations.
Shipping considerations for wireless products (Lithium Batteries: Green Power Module,

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
