Circuit Protection
The MC² Power System is thermally protected and self-resetting. For more information,
see “ No Output Reset Procedure
.” The cooling fan maintains a constant ambient temperature inside the electrical enclosure.
Deep Discharge Protection
Deep discharge of the power system will significantly reduce its cycle life. After the power to the load is disabled, the internal circuitry goes into suspend mode to prevent the power system from reaching a level of deep discharge. To reduce this risk, the MC²
Power System will shut down and cut off the output voltage.

Reset Procedures
No Output Reset Procedure
The Stinger Medical DC-to-DC circuit boards have been upgraded to self-resetting polyfuses. If a situation occurs that could cause harm to a circuit, these fuses will trip and protect the circuit from damage. The result of a tripped fuse is no output. Many reasons could cause a fuse to trip. If a fuse is reset and the system continues to have a problem, discontinue use of the system and contact the Stinger Medical C.A.R.E. department.
Below is an order of operation for resetting these fuses:
1 Remove all devices that are connected to the power system’s outputs.
2 Wait approximately 30-45 seconds after devices have been removed.
3 Insure that all devices are switched off, and then reconnect those devices.
4 Power on connected devices one at a time.
5 If fuse does not reset, repeat Steps 1-4 until fuse is reset.
If you continue to experience problems with the power system, discontinue use of the system and contact the Stinger Medical C.A.R.E. department.

Chapter 10: Battery Disposal
Industrial batteries contain lead and sulfuric acid, which are both considered ‘hazardous substances’. If batteries are improperly disposed of, for example, thrown in the trash or illegally dumped, these substances can eventually leak out and contaminate the surrounding soil and groundwater supply.
It is a violation of federal law to improperly dispose of lead-acid batteries once they can no longer be used Once a battery is purchased, full liability and responsibility lies on the owner to dispose of the battery.
The law says that responsibility is still on the owner if the battery is disposed of improperly by dumping in a landfill, or shipping to a scrap dealer who does not handle it properly and in which environmental damage occurs.
It is illegal to dispose of batteries in any way other than ‘thermal recovery’ or recycling of the hazardous substances in batteries according to the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA).
The Department of Transportation (DOT) has strict guidelines for the shipping of hazardous materials, which result in large fines if they are not followed.
Check with your local ordinances for proper disposal procedures.
MSDS sheets are available on-line at http://www.StingerMedical.com
.
Batteries are consumable goods. For proper operation replace batteries every 18 months.
