Battery Replacement

Here are some guidelines on how to change the battery in an effective manner. 

The OnTracx sensor operates on a 3-Volt lithium cell, type: CR 2025. The average expected battery life is 200 hours of use in ideal operating temperatures. The sensor is designed to sleep when it is not active, but the current demands of the application are such that the battery will need to be replaced on a regular basis.

What do you need to replace the battery:
  1. A new CR2025 battery
  2. A small coin (a penny or similar size)









How to replace the battery in a proper way?

  1. Remove the sensor from the Movesense connector.

  2. Open the battery cover using a coin as a tool. Remove the old battery.

  3. Visually inspect the battery contacts, O-ring, and the sealing surfaces for contamination. Remove any contamination and clean with a dry soft non-clogging cloth. Replace the O-ring if damaged. Replace the sensor if sealing surfaces are damaged.

  4. Make sure that the O-ring is in the correct position in the groove on the battery cover before closing the battery cover.

  5. Replace the battery by inserting the new battery first into the battery cover, positive side up, and then pressing the sensor body on the battery cover.

  6. Firmly close the battery cover. Make sure that the O-ring is not visible after closing the battery cover.

  7. Please dispose of the old battery according to the local rules and legislation, treating it as battery waste. Do not throw it in the garbage
