Serial Numbers

How to extract a date of manufacture from the WAP battery pack Serial Number

Example SN: WA7AC4290688

Coding rule:

WA7 = 7527 and 7527 terminal model

AC = Manufacturer of the battery

4=year (2004)

Years 2010 onwards are coded as follows;

B	2011
C	2012
D	2013
E	2014
F	2015
G	2016
H	2017
I	RESTRICTED
J	2018
K	2019
L	2020

29 = week for shipment

0688 = Serial number

So, WA7AC4290688 means the battery shipped out in the 29^th week of 2004.
