The Duracell DL2430 is a single-use battery of the coin cell type with lithium technology and a nominal voltage of 3 V. It is designed for use in compact electronic devices that require a reliable and long-lasting power supply. The battery has a circular shape with a diameter of 24.5 mm and a height of 3.2 mm, making it suitable for small mounting holes in devices. With a weight of 4 g, it is lightweight and compact, making it ideal for portable and mobile applications.

Applications

The DL2430 is used in a wide range of small electronic devices, including calculators, PDAs, fever thermometers, and pulse watches. These devices require a stable power supply that functions over long periods even at low current consumption. The lithium technology offers high energy density, meaning the battery provides sufficient energy capacity for operating these devices despite its small size. The battery is also suitable for applications requiring short current pulses (pulse applications), such as storing settings in electronic devices.

Functions and Features in Detail

The battery is designed as a single-use battery, meaning it cannot be recharged after discharge and must be disposed of. The lithium technology ensures high power density and long shelf life, with capacity retaining more than 95% of its original value over five years at room temperature. The voltage of 3 V is standard for many small electronic components and enables compatible use in various devices. The battery is supplied in individual packaging with physical dimensions of 24.5 mm (width and depth) and 3.2 mm (height).

Technology Explained Simply

The lithium technology is based on a chemical reaction between lithium and manganese dioxide (Li/MnO₂), which enables high energy density and stable voltage throughout the battery's lifetime. This technology is particularly suitable for devices that operate in standby mode for extended periods, as it offers high efficiency even at low current consumption. The 3-V voltage is a standard value in the electronics industry for small devices and allows compatible use in a wide range of products. The low height of 3.2 mm makes the battery suitable for thin devices where space is limited.

Compatibility and Accessories

The DL2430 is compatible with devices requiring a 3-V coin cell with a diameter of 24.5 mm and a height of 3.2 mm. It can be used in devices designed for CR2430 batteries, as the DL2430 serves as a direct alternative to this designation. The battery is intended for use in electronic devices that do not require recharging and need a long-lasting power supply.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply inserting the battery into the designated battery compartment of the device. Polarity is defined by the round shape and marked side (usually the positive pole). The battery is pressed into the compartment until it clicks into place. Mounting requires no tools and is typically performed by the user. The packaging contains a single battery that can be directly inserted into the device.

Operational Advantages

The DL2430 offers high energy density, meaning it provides sufficient energy for operating small devices despite its small size. The long service life and high capacity retention over several years ensure reliable power supply. The battery is suitable for use in devices that operate in standby mode for extended periods, such as memory modules or medical devices. The low height and small diameter allow integration into thin and compact devices.

The battery is supplied in individual packaging with physical dimensions of 24.5 mm (width and depth) and 3.2 mm (height). The packaging measures 120 mm (width), 84 mm (depth), and 8 mm (height) and weighs 11 g in total. The battery itself weighs 4 g. The packaging serves to protect the battery and prevent short circuits during transport and storage.
