COMEN Progetti PGS10 Compatible Battery 14.8V 2600mAh

COMEN Progetti PGS10 / Taurus E Series — 14.8V Li-ion Replacement Battery (022.01.000071-00)

This 14.8V, 2600mAh Li-ion battery replaces OEM part 022.01.000071-00 in the COMEN Progetti PGS10 patient monitor and the Taurus E and Taurus E+ units. These are portable vital signs monitors used in clinical settings to track heart rate, SpO2, blood pressure, and temperature. The cell pack matches the original voltage rail and connector, so no adapter or modification is needed.

• Progetti PGS10, Taurus E, and Taurus E+ compatibility: All three models share the same 14.8V four-cell series architecture, the same physical footprint (73 × 69 × 19.20mm), and the same BMS handshake protocol. One battery part number — 022.01.000071-00 — covers the full group because the charge IC and protection circuit spec are identical across the platform.
• Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this battery through charge and discharge on the PGS10 platform. The BMS passed cell voltage balancing checks, the protection circuit triggered correctly at low-voltage cutoff, and the device alarm cleared after a complete charge cycle.
• Post-swap self-test protocol: After installing this battery, let the monitor complete its full power-on self-test without interruption. The PGS10 runs a BMS verification sequence at startup — cutting power during this window can trigger a persistent false battery fault that won't clear until the next complete reboot.

Why the PGS10 reports a battery fault after a confirmed full charge

The PGS10's charge IC applies a conservative acceptance threshold when it first sees a new cell pack. On the initial charge, the controller may not log the cell as fully verified even if the voltage reads 16.8V. This is a BMS learn-cycle behaviour, not a cell defect. Run one complete charge-discharge cycle and the controller recalibrates its capacity baseline, after which the fault clears and the charge indicator reaches 100% normally.

Monitor will not power on after the replacement battery was left in storage

Li-ion cells self-discharge during storage, and if the pack voltage drops below approximately 10V the BMS enters deep-discharge lockout to protect the cells. The monitor won't power on because the protection circuit is blocking output, not because the cells have failed. Connect the device to mains power and leave it on charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to boot — most BMS controllers re-initialise once the pack reaches 12V and will restore normal operation from there.
