Operational Information and Safety Safety Manual
Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
Section 1 – Introduction
1.1 General Operational Safety Precautions
This Safety Manual provides information and safety precautions for operating and servicing
Sonardyne products. Sonardyne products can contain hazardous energy and must only be opened by
qualified service personnel.
Operators and Service personnel must be familiar with the information detailed in this manual before
using or servicing Sonardyne equipment.
Additional information including warnings and cautions (if applicable) is included in the relevant
product user, operating or maintenance manual for the specific equipment and must be read and fully
understood before operating the equipment.
Documentation must be consulted whenever the warning symbol is found on the equipment, in
order to find out the nature of the potential hazard and any precautions which have to be taken.
Sonardyne equipment should not be used outside of the manufacturer’s specifications as the
equipment could be damaged or its operation impaired.
The safety of any system incorporating any Sonardyne equipment is the responsibility of the
assembler of the system.
It is the operator’s responsibility to conduct Hazard Identification and Risk Analysis for all conditions.
Section 1 – Introduction 8
Operational Information and Safety Safety Manual
Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
this happens, or is suspected to have happened, since the pressures present within the instrument are
likely to be extremely high. Internal pressure problems may also be aggravated by unknown chemical
hazards if battery breakdown has occurred.
l The following non-exhaustive list gives examples of typical hazardous situations:
l All deteriorated/failed batteries (not just lithium batteries)
l High voltages being present when the equipment is transmitting, particularly on the transmitter
PCB and transducer.
l A pressure housing becoming internally pressurised by water pressure due to a leak
l A pressure housing becoming internally pressurised due to battery failure
l Charging of non-rechargeable battery packs/cells
l Using equipment or instrumentation outside the design parameters
l Using equipment or instrumentation beyond the load bearing limits
l Failing to maintain equipment reducing its load bearing capability
l Using unauthorised components or inferior parts in critical assemblies, e.g. release systems,
battery packs etc.
Section 1 – Introduction 9
Operational Information and Safety Safety Manual
Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
Fumes given off by malfunctioning/failed batteries, particularly lithium based, pose a health
hazard. Make sure the area is well ventilated and the appropriate personal protective equipment, such
as gloves, aprons and goggles, are worn.
When an instrument has leaked it often behaves like a valve, i.e. water pressure causes a rise in
internal pressure which cannot then escape because the point of leakage becomes sealed. When this
happens the instrument is potentially dangerous and all precautions described in this section must be
followed.
Any instrument recovered that is not operable should be suspected of leaking and being flooded.
There may be no prior indication of the presence of a build-up of internal pressure. First indications
may be the endcap(s) of the instrument being forced out of the housing under pressure during the
dismantling process.
Complete removal of an endcap’s retaining mechanism means it becomes unconstrained and
therefore free to be discharged from its housing under high internal pressure; an uncontrolled and
potentially dangerous situation.
Symptoms that indicate a higher risk of internal pressure include:
l Equipment that failed when deployed, in transit or storage.
l Equipment stored for a long time with batteries connected.
l Equipment having suffered physical damage.
WARNING
WARNING
Risk of Toxic Gases. When operating the pressure release vent valve, ensure the work
environment is well ventilated and only necessary authorised personnel are present as toxic gases
may be released. Ensure personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection are worn.
Do not stand directly in front of the end cap during removal. There is potential for the endcap to
be ejected forcibly without notice due to internal pressure.
Do not attempt to dismantle or perform any maintenance activity on an instrument that has a hot
housing. The instrument must be cooled before proceeding.
If the instrument housing is hot, this indicates recent or current active internal chemical action and it
must not be dismantled. Wear the appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and
lower the instrument overboard into the water for several hours or until it has cooled. Refer to the
battery manufacturer’s SDS/BIS (see Appendix A).
To release internal pressure operate the pressure relief vent valve as described in Section 2.2. If there
is no significant pressure dissipation and no fumes indicating a battery failure, the instrument can be
dismantled; refer to the instrument's user manual for the dismantling procedure. If a pressure relief
vent valve is not fitted follow the precautions described in Section 2.3.
If chemical fumes are present when the pressure relief vent valve is released, or there are deposits
around the vent exterior, these are signs that the battery has vented due to water ingress or battery
failure. In these circumstances the battery pack and internal electronics may have been severely
damaged.
Take extreme care when removing the endcap. There may be a possibility of some internal pressure
remaining, due to the pressure relief vent valve being blocked with products of the internal chemical
reaction.
If a removed battery is found to be leaking, it must be placed in a sealable plastic bag and covered with
a mixture of neutralizing agent (soda ash or baking soda) and absorbent material (vermiculite) and
then placed in a secondary bag for additional containment. The battery should be classified as
hazardous waste and disposed of in accordance with local health and safety, and environmental
regulations.
Any spilled electrolyte must be absorbed/neutralized using absorbent material and neutralizing agent.
The contaminated absorbent must be placed into a sealable bag and then placed in a secondary bag
for additional containment, and disposed as hazardous waste. The contaminated area can be cleaned
with water or an ammonia-based cleaner.
The electronics, end caps and pressure housings should be thoroughly cleaned with fresh water.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions (grounded wrist strap) must be taken before handling
circuit boards or modules.
Field servicing cannot compare in efficiency and accuracy with the original factory calibration and
therefore field servicing should be limited to checking correct calibration/operation (within the limits of
the test gear available) and repair by exchange of PCBs or modules.
Section 4 – Batteries
4.1 Use of Appropriate Battery Types
WARNING
Battery packs must not be reconfigured from one type to another, e.g. NiMH to alkaline or lithium
as this may lead to alkaline or lithium cells being inadvertently charged.
Sonardyne equipment uses a variety of battery types including: rechargeable, alkaline and lithium
based packs. Instruments must not be fitted with alternative battery pack types unless they are
specifically designed to use them.
Note
Damage caused by using unauthorised battery packs will invalidate any warranty.
To identify the type of battery installed, a label is attached on the outside of the equipment. Examples
of the labels used are shown below:
Figure 4–1 Example of a Lithium Battery Identification Label
Section 4 – Batteries 14

Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
Fire, explosion and burn hazard. Do not recharge, short circuit, crush, disassemble, heat above
100°C, incinerate or expose battery contents to water.
Lithium based batteries become hazardous (fire and corrosion) if exposed to air and water and if
damaged may emit fumes. Consult the battery manufacturer's Safety Datasheet/Battery Information
Sheet prior to operating lithium based battery products.
Special precautions and regulations apply to the transport, handling and disposal of primary Lithium
products; see Section 4.2.5.
Lithium batteries are powerful sources of electrical energy and should be handled with care to avoid
short-circuiting.
When a battery powered underwater instrument is suspected of flooding, extreme caution must be
exercised when opening the instrument in case it is internally pressurised; see Section 2.4 and Section
2.5.
Safety Datasheets/Battery Information Sheets for primary lithium cells and batteries are shown in
Appendix A.1.
Primary lithium cell datasheets are shown in Appendix B.1.
For primary lithium battery packs, CO2 extinguishers or, even preferably, copious quantities of
water or water based foam, can be used to cool down burning LI-SOCI2 cells and batteries, as long as
the extent of the fire has not progressed to the point that the lithium metal they contain is exposed
(marked by deep red flames). Do not use for this purpose sand, dry powder or soda ash, graphite
powder or fire blankets. Use only metal (Class D) extinguishers on raw lithium.
There is a risk of burns and injury when handling hot batteries; suitable personal protective
equipment, such as gloves, aprons and goggles, must be worn.
If a cell or battery is shorted or starts to heat up, it should be disconnected from the transponder
immediately and removed to the outdoors or to a well-ventilated area to cool down. Tongs, or a shovel,
are recommended for this purpose. Should the battery overheat significantly or catch fire, use the fire-
fighting media as described in in the above Warning, or the cell manufacturer’s safety datasheet. Once
Section 4 – Batteries 15

Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
the temperature has dropped and it is deemed safe to do so, the cell or battery can be disposed of as
described in Section 4.2.6.
Charging of Non-Rechargeable Battery Packs
WARNING
Instruments with batteries installed should not be left on deck in strong sunlight such that they become
hot to the touch.
Observe the manufacturers minimum and maximum storage temperatures.
Store all primary lithium battery packs in an isolated area, away from combustible materials. Store
depleted cells in an area separate from fresh cells. Allow space for complete encapsulation with Lith-X
in the event of a fire.
Any primary lithium battery storage area should have immediate access to both a class D and an ABC
fire extinguisher. Refer to the battery manufacturer’s specifications for extinguishing fires containing
this battery type.
Instruments should be cooled to normal room temperature or lower before being opened for battery
replacement.
Section 4 – Batteries 16
Operational Information and Safety Safety Manual
Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
The IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations Section II, Packing Instructions 967, Note A154 states that
lithium batteries identified by the manufacturer as being defective for safety reasons, or that have been
damaged, that have the potential of producing a dangerous evolution of heat, fire or short circuit are
forbidden for transport.
Do not dispose of primary Lithium batteries in a fire as there is a potential risk of battery
explosion.
Cells and batteries must be disposed of in accordance with local health and safety, and environmental
regulations regarding hazardous substances. Packaging suitable for the storage and transport of
Lithium cells/batteries must be used at all times when not installed in an instrument.
Suitable personal protective equipment, such as gloves, apron and goggles, should be worn when
handling suspect cells/batteries. If the skin has come into contact with the electrolyte, it should be
washed thoroughly with clean water.
Only charge li-ion batteries using the charging equipment supplied; do not attempt to charge
li-ion batteries using any other type of charging equipment.
Dry chemical type or CO2 extinguishers, Halon, or copious quantities of water or water-based
foam can be used to cool down burning li-ion cells and batteries. During water application, caution
should be exercised as burning pieces of flammable particles may be ejected from the fire. In case of
fire, it is recommended to wear self-contained breathing apparatus to avoid contact with irritant
fumes. Evacuate all persons from immediate area of fire. Do not re-enter the area until it has been
adequately purged of the fire vapour and extinguishing agent.
Section 4 – Batteries 17
Operational Information and Safety Safety Manual
Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
When charging li-ion batteries for the first time after long-term storage, deactivation of reactants may
lead to increased battery voltage and decreased battery capacity. It is possible to restore batteries to
their original performance by repeating several cycles of charging and discharging.
For long-term storage of more than one year, li-ion batteries should be charged at least once a year to
prevent leakage and deterioration in performance due to self-discharging. Batteries stored whilst
connected to equipment and batteries containing sophisticated battery management electronics may
need to be monitored and charged several times a year to avoid technical and performance difficulties.
Only charge NiMH batteries using the charging equipment supplied; do not attempt to charge
NiMH batteries using any other type of charging equipment.
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries are rechargeable. Sonardyne supplies the correct charging
equipment with any euipment containing NiMH batteries.
NiMH batteries should be replaced when they fail to hold their charge. They must be disposed of as
hazardous waste, in accordance with local health and safety, and environmental regulations.

Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
Do not exceed the Working Load Limit capabilities of release mechanisms, or additional lifting
equipment.
The Working Load Limit (WLL) capability of the release mechanism built into many instruments, can
only be used for in-line lifting operations if a suitably-rated, approved, lifting strap, transducer guard,
buoyancy collar eyes or other safe method is selected.
It is the responsibility of the Responsible Body at the worksite to make sure the condition of the
equipment is acceptable and that a safe lifting method has been devised for any particular operation.
Sonardyne’s range of Oceanographic Release Transponders have been designed specifically for in-
line lifting operations.
Appropriate shackles must be used in release systems to ensure freedom from corrosion. It is
important to note that instruments, their release mechanisms and shackles form part of an integrated
and complete system.
knowing this figure, e.g., a float with 30 kilogram nett buoyancy in sea water supporting a load with
weight in sea water of 30 kilogram would result in neutral buoyancy, i.e. no nett up-thrust.
Do not stack the floats on top of each other or store in direct sunlight.
Float Over-Pressure
The maximum water depth quoted for a float must not be exceeded. Over-pressured floats are forced
to absorb water and their weight in air thus increases. All floats should be weighed prior to use to
check that they are maintaining their original manufactured weight.
According to REACH regulation (EC 1907/2006, Art 31) and to OSHA regulation (29 CFR 1910.1200),
batteries are ARTICLES with no intended release. As such, they are not covered by legal requirements
to generate and supply an SDS or an MSDS.

November 2012 – Version 1.1 – Li-SOCl2 single cells and multi-cell battery systems Page 1
2. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
The Li-SOCl2 batteries described in this Battery Information Sheet are sealed units which are not hazardous under normal
operating conditions in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations, as stated in the user’s manual or other similar
documentation. Under normal use, the battery integrity is maintained and the active components it contains are isolated
from the outside.
In particular, the battery should not be submitted to any mechanical (opening, puncture, immersion), thermal (burning,
heating to temperatures above the normal temperature range of the product) or electrical abuse (short-circuit, recharge,
forced discharge), which will lead to the activation of safety valves and/or the rupture of the battery container.
Any accidental release of the inner components of the cell, or their combustion products could be highly hazardous.
Battery content exposition to air humidity/liquid water may be followed by severe battery vent/explosion/fire, depending
on the hazard causes and circumstances.
A. Two suitable diodes or the equivalent in series with the cells to prevent any reverse (charging) current. The second
diode is used to provide protection in the event that one would fail. Quality control, or equivalent procedures,
shall be established by the device manufacturer to check that the diode polarity is correct for each unit.
or
B. A blocking diode or the equivalent to prevent any reverse (charging) current and a resistor to limit current in case
of diode failure. The resistor should be sized to limit the reverse (charging) current to the maximum value
according to the data sheet of the cell.
Each unit cell consists of a hermetically sealed metallic can containing a number of chemicals and materials of construction
of which the following are potentially hazardous upon release to air.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Lithium-thionyle chloride batteries are not rechargeable and should not be tentatively charged or
recharged. Manufacturer’s recommendations should be followed regarding maximum current and operating
temperature range. Applying pressure or deforming the battery may lead to disassembly and cause eye, skin and throat
irritation.
November 2012 – Version 1.1 – Li-SOCl2 single cells and multi-cell battery systems Page 2
STORAGE: Store in a cool, regulated (preferably below 21°C and in any case below 30°C), dry and ventilated area, away
from possible sources of heat, open flames, food and drink. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for long periods.
Temperatures above 100°C (or higher for High Temperatures cells and batteries such as the LSH20-150 cell- refer to
individual data sheets for maximum temperatures) may cause leakage and rupture, and result in shortened battery service
life. Keep proper clearance space between batteries and walls. Since short circuit can cause burn hazard, leakage or
explosion hazard, keep batteries in original packaging until use and do not mix them.
HANDLING:
Do not open the battery system.
Do not crush or pierce the cells.
Do not short (+) or (-) terminal with conductors.
Do not reverse the polarity.
Do not submit to excessive mechanical stress.
Do not mix batteries of different types or mix new and old ones together.
Do not use the unit without its electronic management system.
Do not expose the unit to water or condensation.
Do not directly heat, solder or throw into fire. Such unsuitable use can cause leakage or spout vaporized
electrolyte fumes and may cause fire or explosion.
The lithium-thionyl chloride cell or battery described by this Battery Information Sheet is a sealed unit when offered for
sale. It is a manufactured “article” and does not expose the user to hazardous chemicals when used in accordance with
manufacturer specifications.
The battery system is stable when handled and stored according to section 4.
MATERIALS TO AVOID: Oxidizing agents, bases, water. Avoid electrolyte contact with aluminium of zinc.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Do not heat above 100°C (or higher (150°C) for High Temperatures cells and batteries such as the
LSH20-150 cell- refer to individual data sheets for maximum temperatures) or incinerate. Do not disassemble, crush,
pierce, short, charge or recharge. Avoid mechanical or electrical abuse.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Hydrogen (H2) as well as lithium oxide (Li 2O) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH) dust
are produced in case of reaction of lithium metal with water (hydrolysis).
Chlorine (Cl2), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and disulfur dioxide (S2Cl2) are produced in case of thermal decomposition of thionyl
dichloride above 100°C. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) are produced in case of reaction of thionyl
dichloride with water at room temperature.
November 2012 – Version 1.1 – Li-SOCl2 single cells and multi-cell battery systems Page 3
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) fumes, lithium oxide (Li 2O), lithium hydroxide (LiOH) and aluminium hydroxide (Al(OH) 3) dust are
produced in case of reaction of lithium tetrachloroaluminate (LiAlCl 4) with water.
7. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
There is no risk, unless the battery ruptures. In the event of accidental exposure to internal contents, corrosive fumes will
cause severe skin, eye and mucous membrane irritation. Medical conditions are generally aggravated by exposure to
battery internal contents: eczema, skin allergies, lung injuries, asthma and other respiratory disorders may occur.
Overexposure may cause symptoms of non-fibrotic lung injury and ingestion can cause tissue damage to throat and gastro-
respiratory tract.
8. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
9. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Batteries do not contain hazardous materials according to EC Directives 91/157/EEC, 93/86/EEC, and 2002/95/EC (RoHS)
Directive). Battery recycling is either mandatory or recommended: The European Directive 2006/66/EC has been
implemented by most EC member states.
Dispose of in accordance with local laws and regulations. Store material for disposal as indicated in Section 4. A disposal
service is offered upon request by Tadiran Batteries.
Do not incinerate, or subject cells to temperatures in excess of 100°C (or 150°C for LSH20-150 cells and the battery packs
assembled from them). Such abuse can result in loss of seal, electrolyte leakage and/or violent disassembly with risk of
material projections.
For additional information a Technical Notice is available upon request.

1.3 Emergency contact
2. HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
EYE CONTACT: contents of an opened cell inside a battery can cause eye irritation. Dust may cause inflammation of eyelids
SKIN CONTACT: Electrolyte solution contained inside cells can cause skin irritation. Contact with positive active material
may in addition cause allergic dermatitis or irritation to skin.
INHALATION: Contents of an opened cell can cause respiratory tract and mucus membrane irritation. Overexposure to
lithiated nickel compounds may cause an allergic response. If gas is generated during battery disassembly, throat irritation
may occur.
TEMPERATURE: Do not place the batteries on or near fires or other high-temperature locations (> 70°C for VL and VES
cells, > 85°C for extended temperature MP range [with xtd extension] and > 125°C for high temperatures VL cells [with –
125 extension]). Doing so may cause the batteries to overheat or ignite. Using the batteries in this manner may also result
in a loss of performance and a shortened battery life.
Depending on the type of battery system, the battery may contain either a glycol ethylene based coolant or a refrigerated
coolant.
December 2014 – Version 1.2 – Rechargeable Li-ion cells, modules or battery systems Page 2
4. HANDLING AND STORAGE
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The battery should not be opened without Saft approval. The battery should not be destroyed or
incinerated since the battery may cause fire or the ingredients contained in the cells could be harmful if exposed.
STORAGE : Store in a cool, dry and ventilated area. Elevated temperatures can shorten battery life. Since short circuit can
cause burn hazard, leakage or venting hazard, keep batteries in original packaging until use and do not jumble them.
HANDLING :
Do not short (+) and (-) terminal with conductors.
Do not short (-) terminal and the can of aluminium can cells with conductors
Do not short (+) terminal and the can of stainless steel can cells with conductors
Do not reverse the polarity
Do not mix different type batteries or mix new and old ones together.
Do not open the battery system or modules
Do not use the unit without its electronic management system.
Do not submit to excessive mechanical stress.
Do not expose the unit to water or condensation
Do not directly heat, do not solder or throw into fire. Such unsuitable use can cause leakage or spout vaporized
electrolyte fumes and may cause fire or explosion.
Immediately disconnect the batteries if, during operation, they emit an unusual smell, feel hot, change shape, or
appear abnormal in any other way. Contact Saft if any of these problems are observed.
CHARGING/DISCHARGING : Charge with charger designed specifically for this battery. Do not overcharge as venting and
combustion can occur. Do not over-discharge. Discharge limits are dependent on the specific product. Refer to Saft
Instructions.
The lithium-Ion cell or battery described by this Battery Information Sheet is a sealed unit when offered for sale. It is a
manufactured “article” and does not expose the user to hazardous chemicals when used in accordance with the
manufacturer specifications.
6. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY – the battery system is stable when handled and stored according to
section 4
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Avoid exposing battery to fire or high temperature. Do not disassemble, crush or short or install
with incorrect polarity. Avoid mechanical or electrical abuse.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Lithium hexafluorophosphate may react with water in the atmosphere and
produce some traces of hydrogen fluoride, which do not worsen the gas toxicity. Thermal decomposition of the cell may
release of electrolyte liquid and vapour, harmful materials, and dusts.
December 2014 – Version 1.2 – Rechargeable Li-ion cells, modules or battery systems Page 3
7. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Risk of irritation occurs only if the cell is mechanically, thermally or electrically abused to the point of compromising the
integrity of the enclosure. If this occurs, irritation to the skin, eyes and respiratory tract may occur.

Precautions for General Equipment Issue B1
Definitions
Definitions of Loads, Loading and General Terms
Term Definition
Breaking Load / The load that induces structural failure in one or more parts of the instrument causing the
Static Failure Load load to part from the release mechanism.
Competent Person An individual who, by way of training and/or experience, is knowledgeable of applicable
standards, is capable of identifying workplace hazards relating to the specific operation,
is designated by the employer, and has authority to take appropriate actions.
Dynamic Load A time varying load resulting from the motion and inertia of connected masses and forcing
functions such as wave action on the vessel. This may include transient and steady state
harmonically alternating loads.
Maximum The maximum in-line load the whole assembly can release whilst guaranteeing safe and
Buoyancy for reliable operation. Note that as the load is released in water this is determined by the
Release / Release maximum up-thrust from the buoyancy.
Loads The maximum in-line load the instrument can withstand and successfully release without
overloading any part of the release mechanism or demanding an unsupportable quantity of
energy from the battery supply (at its specified end point).
Proof Load The load to which the actual unit has been tested in the factory. This load should be
periodically applied to demonstrate the unit is still in a safe condition. This is usually twice
the WLL.
Responsible Body The Responsible Body is the organisation responsible for Health and Safety for lifting
operations at the worksite.
Safe Working Load The maximum load (as determined by a competent person) that an item of lifting
(SWL) equipment may raise, lower or suspend under particular service conditions, e.g. the SWL
can be lower than, but can never exceed the WLL.
Shock Load or A time transient load generally caused by the sudden acceleration (positive or negative) of
Snatch Load the load. Examples are the sudden snatch of a load off the deck or a sudden arrest of a
load falling under gravity.
Static Load An unvarying long term load
Working Load Limit The maximum recommended working load. This is set as a maximum 25% of the
(WLL) Breaking Load and allows for factors such as corrosion, fatigue shock loads, harmonic
loads, manufacturing defects and material defects. Please note this does not account for
extreme offshore service conditions.
