This information is found on the existing battery. The device name alone is not sufficient, because the same device type was shipped with different batteries over the years.<\/dd>\n<dt>Can the capacity be higher than that of the old battery?<\/dt>\n<dd>Yes, provided the voltage, form factor, and connection remain the same. A higher capacity in Ah means a longer runtime. It must not be lower. The voltage must match in any case.<\/dd>\n<dt>What distinguishes an original battery from an alternative?<\/dt>\n<dd>The original battery bears the device manufacturer&#039;s name. Alternatives are marked as CE-compliant and display the reference number they replace. Both require the same specifications regarding voltage, capacity, form factor, and connection.<\/dd>\n<dt>Can I switch from nickel-cadmium to lithium-ion batteries?<\/dt>\n<dd>Not so easily. The device&#039;s charging electronics and charging voltage are specifically designed for the existing technology. Stick with the battery type specified by your existing battery, unless the device manufacturer specifies otherwise.<\/dd>\n<dt>Are all batteries in defibrillators rechargeable?<\/dt>\n<dd>No. Besides rechargeable batteries, there are primary batteries that are only used once, such as the lithium-manganese dioxide battery of the Lifepak CR2 or the M3863A battery for the Philips HeartStart range. Check the battery designation before connecting a charger.<\/dd>\n<dt>Do you also carry batteries for older devices?<\/dt>\n<dd>Yes. Our product range extends from current monitors to devices such as the Philips M3046 Viridia, Dr\u00e4ger Infinity Delta, and early B. Braun infusion pump models. Please provide the device type and reference number, and we will check the compatibility.<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<section class=\"nsp-pf-wir\">\n<h2 id=\"beratung\">Assignment by nib<\/h2>\n<p>Send us a photo of the nameplate on your existing battery.
