Additional notes

The Battery FRU for KV Control is a battery that is a Field Replacement Unit (FRU) that is used in the KV control which controls and regulates the image contrast quality of X-rays and CT-Scans. In these imaging devices, when the voltage increases the contrast of image quality will decrease, so the battery controls it by giving continuous electric discharge. They have 8 KB of memory for each and include all associated identification labels. The Lithium Carbon Mono Fluoride (CFx) batteries are used as a memory back up devices for KV control, which lasts longer than conventional batteries. They do not require replacement as often and it can be used in portable consumer electronic devices in which physical specifications, such as weight and form factor are considered. It is a low maintenance battery and just needs standard charging. It is designed in such a way where the user themselves can replace the batteries with ease whenever required. These very portable and can be transported easily. It does not require prolonged priming when new, a standard charge is all that's needed. This battery is used in many systems such as CT Prospeed 2-Slice, CT Hispeed VX 1-Slice, CT CTE 1 - Slice, XF Prestige VH and UL LOGIQ 100 Pro.
