2.3 Product-specific safety instructions
Handling
The ZF product contains primary lithium thionyl chloride batteries. If used improperly or damaged, the
batteries may become dangerous.
Please observe the following safety instructions:
•Please note the intended use.
Incorrect use may result in liquid leaking from the batteries. Liquid leaking from the batteries may cause
skin irritation or burns. Avoid skin and eye contact. If you come into contact with leaking liquid
accidentally, rinse it off with water and seek medical help.
•Avoid damage.
Damaged ZF products may develop unpredictable properties that may cause fire, explosions or injuries.
Observe the following:
– Replace damaged products as soon as possible.
– In case of damage, stop using the damaged product immediately
(refer to Section
Decommissioning)
.
•Do not throw the product into the fire or subject it to intense heat.
If batteries are thrown into the fire or subjected to temperatures above 130°C, the resulting heat may
cause an explosion and/or a fire and injuries.
•Do not immerse the product in liquids.
The ZF product is sufficiently protected from water for safe operation. Immersing the ZF product in
liquids will cause a defect.
•Do not recharge or short circuit the batteries.
An attempt to charge or short circuit the batteries may cause a fire.
•Do not open the ZF product or the batteries.
Opening or modifying the ZF product or the batteries will damage the safety devices. This may cause
heat or smoke to develop or cause the product or batteries to ignite or explode.
•Do not dispose of the ZF product in household or residual waste.
•Store the ZF product outside the reach of children.
In case of fire
If lithium thionyl chloride batteries catch fire, the resulting fire can be fought with water. It is not necessary
to use special fire extinguishing media for lithium thionyl chloride batteries.
Use conventional fire extinguishing media to fight surrounding fires of lithium thionyl chloride
batteries.
If a battery catches fire, this fire cannot be considered separately from the surrounding fire. The cooling
effect of water keeps the fire from spreading to the battery cells that have not yet reached the critical
ignition temperature (thermal runaway).
Reduce the fire load by separating larger quantities and by removing them from the danger area.
A fire may result in the development of gases that, if inhaled, can cause health damage. Observe the
following:
• Ensure sufficient respiratory protection.
Safety
8EN 6075.758.101a - 2021-11
• The firefighters may find instructions on what to bear in mind in the case of fire useful.
• If large quantities of smoke or gas develop or are emitted, leave the affected area immediately.
• Seek medical help in case of smoke and/or gas inhalation or respiratory tract irritation.
• Ensure sufficient ventilation.
2.3.1 Screw connection
The torque wrenches must be calibrated to DIN EN ISO 6789.

3 Description
3.1 Brief product description
10_010643_03
Fig. 1 Heavy Duty TAG
• The Heavy Duty TAG is a battery-powered wireless sensor.
• The sensor measures the acceleration and the temperature of parts in the bogie.
• The measured data is transmitted to the gateway inside the vehicle via radio technology.
• The data, e.g. position information, is evaluated in the gateway and then transmitted to the internet.
• ZF automatically and centrally evaluates the data in the cloud.
• The vehicle status and corresponding recommendations for action for the vehicle operator are indicated
via a web portal.
Field of Application
The sensor is designed and intended for use in rail vehicles in Europe. Other applications or fields of
application are not intended and no claims for suitability or technical conformity for such applications or
fields of application are made.
Use
The sensor may be operated in a frequency range from 2,402 MHz to 2,480 MHz.
Function
The sensor and the overall system will only function in combination with further ZF Friedrichshafen AG
components. For more information, please talk to your ZF contact or visit www.zf.com/hd-tag.
