OVERVIEW

Reliable Power for Industrial Electronics

The CR1632 Lithium Coin Cell Battery is a critical component for maintaining the functionality of precision industrial equipment. In the realm of welding and fabrication, maintaining the readiness of safety gear is paramount. This 3-volt lithium battery is specifically engineered to deliver a stable and consistent charge, making it the ideal power source for high-performance auto-darkening filters (ADF) found in modern welding helmets. Unlike standard alkaline batteries, lithium coin cells offer a significantly higher energy density, allowing them to provide long-lasting performance in a compact, lightweight form factor that does not add bulk to headgear.

Designed with a low self-discharge rate, this CR1632 battery ensures a long shelf life, allowing maintenance departments and individual fabricators to stock replacements without fear of the power degrading over time. This is essential for minimizing downtime in busy workshops; when a helmet's low-battery indicator flashes, having a fresh, reliable cell on hand ensures work continues immediately. The battery utilizes Lithium Manganese Dioxide chemistry, which is known for its stability and resistance to leakage, protecting the delicate internal circuitry of expensive welding lenses and electronic instruments.

Beyond welding applications, the CR1632 is a versatile power solution for a wide array of MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) tools. It is frequently used in digital calipers, micrometers, laser bore sights, and remote control devices used in crane or lift operations. Its ability to operate effectively across a broad temperature range makes it suitable for use in unheated workshops or outdoor job sites where temperature fluctuations can drain lesser batteries. Trust in this generic replacement cell to meet the voltage and amperage requirements of your essential shop electronics.

Technical Reliability and Safety

Industrial safety depends on the reliability of every component, down to the power source. A failing battery in an auto-darkening helmet can lead to delayed switching times or failure to darken, exposing the operator to harmful UV/IR radiation. This CR1632 cell is manufactured to strict standards to ensure it meets the nominal voltage requirements necessary for the fast reaction times of modern ADF technology. It is a non-rechargeable primary cell, designed for single-use efficiency and easy disposal according to local environmental regulations.

FAQ

This is a 3-volt lithium coin cell battery.

No, the CR1632 is a primary lithium battery and is not rechargeable. Attempting to recharge it can be dangerous.

The CR1632 measures approximately 16mm in diameter and 3.2mm in thickness.

It depends on the specific model of your helmet. Many auto-darkening filters use CR1632, CR2032, or CR2450 batteries. Please check your helmet's manual or the existing battery to confirm the size is CR1632.

Lifespan varies greatly based on usage hours and the specific helmet model, but typically a fresh CR1632 can last anywhere from 1,000 to 2,000 hours of welding time.

No. While the voltage is the same (3V), the CR2032 is larger in diameter (20mm) and will not fit in the battery compartment designed for a CR1632 (16mm).

Lithium coin cells typically have a shelf life of 5 to 10 years if stored in a cool, dry place.

Lithium batteries should be recycled or disposed of according to your local municipal hazardous waste regulations. Do not throw them in the regular trash.
