AVESTOR is the world leader in Lithium-Metal-Polymer battery technology. AVESTOR holds 400 patents or patents pending covering 78 inventions in the Lithium-Metal-Polymer technology These cover significant aspects of the unique electrochemistry that is at the heart of this new battery construction as well as the materials and manufacturing processes that are needed to transform it into a practical, high quality and reliable battery system.


	Advantages


	Lithium-metal-polymer technology represents a significant breakthrough in energy storage development, and offers the following overall benefits:


	• • • • • • •


	very predictable and stable charge/discharge characteristicsover varying environmental conditions and over the life of the battery much higher energy capacity per unit volume and per unit weight no maintenance requirements operates under extreme climatic conditions safer and more reliable safer and more reliable non-prorated 10 year guarantee (-40 to 65ºC)


	The SE 48S63 Lithium-Metal Polymer battery is an ideal module to optimize use of available battery space, delivering the highest possible backup energy storage. It is well suited to telecom bulk power cabinet or rack applications and is compatible with many industrial applications.

	AVESTOR's Lithium-Metal-Polymer technology and products have been developed with the most rigorous environmental and safety requirements in mind.Â Among its characteristics are:


	• • • • •

Lowest toxicity level for telecom stationary batteries (based on the American Conference of Government Industrial Hygienists results for threshold limit value (TLV) of lead-acid and Ni-Cad batteries main contaminants).

No explosion risk due to fire, no overheating, and no thermal runaway

Safe at high temperatures up to 180°C (356°F)

No outgassing created during cycling mode

No risk of health hazards while manipulating the battery


	For stationary applications, AVESTOR products have been designed to meet applicable requirements of the following standards:


	• • • • •


	UL-1642 Standard for Lithium Batteries UL-2054 Standard for Safety for Household and Commercial Batteries UL-1989 Standard for Standby Batteries Telcordia GR-63-CORE, Issue 1, October 1995, Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection
