peroxide (wipe, do not soak) to clean Tags.

Ideally, to preserve battery life, Tags should 
be turned off with a TAD. However, if you

activated, Tags should be stored away from 
sources of electrical noise and stored in a 
metal container with lid.  

How can I be sure the Tag is on and 
functioning properly? 

You can test that a Tag is on and functioning 
properly by the testing it with a TAD or 
taking the Tag to a monitored zone (this may 
cause alarms). For more information on the 
TAD, see chapter 3.

with my TAD? 

Accutech recommends testing a Tag’s

unassignment prior to cleaning and 
restocking of the Tag for new use. Periodic 
weekly testing of Tags for long-term 
patients is also recommended.

replace them? 

Accutech Tags operate by internal battery. 
The Tags have been engineered for greater 
than 12 months usage.  

Can I replace or recharge the battery in the 
Tag? 

No. Once a Tag’s battery is drained, the Tag 
will have to be replaced.  

What is the Tag case made of?

Lexan® plastic

How long will the 9-volt battery last in the 
TAD?

switch off the TAD when not in use.
