What is a lithium thionyl chloride battery? What are its uses?

Basic analysis: The rated voltage of lithium thionyl chloride battery is 3.6V, and the working voltage varies with load, generally between 3.0V and 3.6V, which is the highest among all single batteries at present. The battery has a mass specific energy as high as 500WH/Kg and a volume specific energy as high as 1000WH/L, which is the highest among current batteries. According to its purpose, it can be divided into three types: capacity type, power type and high temperature type. Lithium thionyl chloride batteries are particularly suitable for long-term discharge. The load voltage is extremely stable, and more than 90% of the capacity can be discharged on a high platform with almost constant voltage. Lithium thionyl chloride batteries can be used in extremely harsh environments. Conventional batteries can be used in an environment of -55℃~+85℃, and special batteries can be used in an environment up to 150℃; the battery can be used at room temperature for many years. The self-discharge rate is less than 1%, and the storage period can be up to 15 years in an environment below 35°C. Important uses: Lithium thionyl chloride batteries can be used in various fields, mainly for smart card meters (water, electricity, gas meters), computer support power supplies, medical equipment, wireless communications, oil drilling, portable communications equipment, scientific research instruments, remote data Acquisition systems, military applications and other electric equipment, etc. Important features: stable high working voltage platform, high volume ratio energy/mass ratio, low energy self-discharge rate, up to 15 years storage life (under 20℃ environment, annual self-discharge rate is less than 1%); Stainless steel outer body, metal glass sealing structure, otherwise inorganic electrolyte, wide temperature application range -55~+85℃.
