It slots into the battery bay and restores portable ECG operation when AC power is unavailable. Voltage and chemistry match OEM spec exactly — 9.6V Ni-MH, 36.48Wh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFX-7402 and FCP series compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These Fukuda ECG models share the same 9.6V Ni-MH battery rail, connector pinout, and BMS handshake protocol. The charge IC in each device is calibrated to this chemistry — swapping to Li-ion is not supported and will trigger a persistent battery fault.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through charge, standby, and load draw on the FX-7402 platform. The BMS completed its capacity verification without triggering a fault code, and the charge IC accepted the cell without requiring a manual reset.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower-on self-test after installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting the new battery, allow the device to complete its full startup self-test without interruption. The ECG unit runs a BMS verification sequence at boot — cutting power mid-cycle causes a false battery fault that will persist until the next complete reboot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the FX-7402 alarms low battery with a freshly charged replacement installed\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe FX-7402 charge IC applies OEM-calibrated thresholds during its initial BMS verification pass. A new Ni-MH cell has not yet established its internal resistance baseline, so the device reads capacity conservatively and can trigger a low-battery alarm even after a confirmed full charge. This is not a faulty cell — it is the BMS treating an uncharacterised cell with the same caution it applies to a degraded one. Running one complete charge-discharge cycle allows the BMS to map the cell's actual capacity curve and clears the false alarm on subsequent boots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eDevice not powering on after the battery sat in storage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–2% per day at room temperature. A battery that has been in storage for several months can drop below the FX-7402's BMS recovery threshold — typically around 8.5V for a 9.6V pack — at which point the device refuses to power on as a protective measure. Connect the battery to a compatible Ni-MH charger externally before reinstalling, or leave the device on charge via AC for a minimum of two hours to allow the charge IC to recover the cell from its low-voltage state. Once the pack reads above the recovery threshold, normal power-on will resume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43381520891994,"sku":"BWCS-FXD740MD-1","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43381520924762,"sku":"BWCS-FXD740MD-2","price":115.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43381520957530,"sku":"BWCS-FXD740MD-3","price":128.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-FXD740MD-1.webp?v=1778901369","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/fukuda-fx-7402-replacement-battery-96v-3800mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
