2 Guidelines for Handling Lithium Batteries
Important User Information
Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment.
Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication
SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at
http://www.ab.com/manuals/gi) describes some important differences between solid state equipment and
hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety of
uses for solid state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves
that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
