Edge Dosimeter Battery Care Best Practices

The Edge dosimeter incorporates a Lithium Polymer battery as a power source that with proper

care should give years of operational service (three years is typical).

Proper Care Includes these Best Practices

•After use, it is best to charge the Edge 7 in an EdgeConnect (Use EdgeDock for models

EG3, EG4, EG5) charger prior to storage for a prolonged period. A prolonged period is

considered to be two or more months. If the Edge is to be stored for an even longer

period, it is best to take the Edge out of storage and recharge the dosimeter every two to

three months.

•If the Edge has not been used for a prolonged period or was stored in a low battery

condition, charge the Edge in an EdgeConnect before attempting to turn it on.

•It is best not to store the Edge for any period of time in low battery condition.

•If not using the dosimeter, it is best to keep the dosimeter in an EdgeConnect plugged into

a power source.
