Battery Installation in Tilt Stand
IMPORTANT: Connections to the battery pack must be made in the non-hazardous area before connecting the cable to the 882IS indicator.
- Ensure battery cable and lockout device are attached to the 882IS battery before entering hazardous area.
- Thread the tilt stand knobs into the battery, but leave them loose.
- Slide the battery into the tilt stand with the connector cable on the side that rear of indicator is mounted.
- Secure with the captive screw to mount and tighten up the tilt stand knobs.
Cable Connections and Installation
The following section contains information on cable connections and installation for the IS6V2 battery to an 882IS indicator.
NOTE: Intrinsically safe cables are specified by control drawing. All cables must meet the appropriate internal inductance and capacitance according to the control drawing. Cable lengths are based on group classifications.
- Install cordset cable to the battery.
- Hand tighten the cable connection to the battery using the grooved nut of the M12 connector.
- Install lockout device onto cordset device by placing it around the cordset end.
Figure 2. Lockout Device Installation
- Close until the connector snaps shut.
- The battery can be brought into the hazardous area for indicator connection.
- Connect the cable assembly (male) from the indicator to the cable assembly (female) from the battery. Ensure the grooves on each cable assembly are lined up properly with each other.

Operating Times
NOTE: Batteries are charged at the factory prior to shipping.
All estimated operating times are based on a fully charged battery (see Table 1). A fully charged battery is one that has been charged for a minimum of 12 hours.
NOTE: To keep the battery at full capacity, it is recommended to leave the battery connected to the charger, in float charge mode, until ready to use. The battery can remain on the charger in float charge mode indefinitely without damaging the battery. See IS6V2 Battery Charging Instruction sheet (PN 194893) for instructions on charging the battery.
Load Cell Size | Quantity of Cells | Operating Time |
350 Ω load cell | 1 | 80 – 95 hours |
4 | 60 – 80 hours | |
700 Ω load cell | 1 | 85 – 100 hours |
4 | 70 – 90 hours |
Table 1. Estimated Battery Operating Times
NOTE: To preserve battery life, disconnect the battery when not in use. Even if the indicator is turned off, the indicator will still draw a small amount of power while connected.
IS6V2 Battery Charging
Charging a dead battery takes a minimum of 12 hours.
- Disconnect battery cable from indicator.
- Remove battery pack from indicator tilt stand and take to non-hazardous area.
- Remove the lockout device and battery cable from the battery.
- Charge the battery.
- Lockout device must be re-installed prior to re-entering the hazardous area.
CAUTION: Re-charge batteries in a non-hazardous location.
