SR916SW / 373

The SR916SW / 373 silver-oxide family is 9.5 × 1.65 mm. Preserve the W/SW drain designation unless current device or manufacturer guidance permits otherwise.

Answer

SR916SW, 373, V373 are the supported exact aliases for one 9.5 × 1.65 mm silver-oxide watch cell. No other family is treated as an automatic replacement.

Supported application context

  • Watches specifying this exact code and drain class

Application context is limited to the scope stated in Murata Watch Battery Selection Guide; it is not a device compatibility claim.

This record belongs to the watch-cell system. Maker numbers are useful aliases, while the SW low-drain designation remains part of device selection.

SR916SW/373 is 9.5 × 1.65 mm, thinner than the supported 370/371 and 395/399 families with the same diameter. A diameter-only measurement leaves several candidates.

What the code means

SR916SW identifies a silver-oxide watch cell. The W or SW suffix is part of the supported identity and records the manufacturer drain class.

Discharge and drain behaviour

Silver-oxide cells are selected for a comparatively stable working voltage. SW: low-drain profile remains material in watch applications, so a shared diameter and height do not erase the W/SW distinction.

Capacity context: Manufacturer- and test-condition-specific; no universal capacity is asserted from the selection guide.

Substitution guidance

Treat only the aliases on this page as exact equivalents. Another cell with the same dimensions is conditional at best unless its chemistry, nominal voltage and low-drain requirement also agree with the device specification.
