How To Select the Right Battery for Your Application

Lithium/ Poly Carbon Monofluoride

Poly (carbon monofluoride) cells have an OCV of 3V and a fairly high energy density. These cells were developed by Matsushita in the 1970s and later made under license by Ray-O-Vac. Cylindrical types are manufactured with a spiral-shaped cathode and crimped elastomer seals. Though generally safe, under extreme conditions the elastomer seals can fail before the case fails, thus allowing the relatively reactive cell constituents to escape. The cells are available in all standard cylindrical sizes as well as coin types.

These cells are good choice for long term, low drain applications.
