Silver Oxide SR Coin Cell
Description
- Maxell is the world's leading manufacturer of Mercury Free
environmentally friendly watch cells.
- Following European battery
regulations*, sales of batteries with 5 ppm or more of mercury
is prohibited. However, button-type cells such as silver-oxide
cells have received special exemption from the regulations since
it has been technically difficult to maintain long product life
without mercury and lead as an anti-corrosive. Given the global
effort to reduce the environmental impact- of such products,
Maxell has been committed to developing silver-oxide cells not
using these types of anti-corrosives.
