Battery Combustion Tester

Criterios aplicables

• Global Compliance: Aligns with IEC 62133 (portable batteries), UL 1642 (lithium-ion safety), and GB 31241-2014 (lithium-ion safety requirements).
• Multi-Scenario Testing: Simulates combustion, thermal runaway, and fire propagation scenarios to assess battery integrity.

Parámetros principales

Principio de funcionamiento

The machine uses a propane-fueled burner to generate controlled flames, which are directed at battery samples. A PLC system adjusts flame height and duration, while sensors monitor real-time temperature, voltage, and gas emissions. The test chamber is equipped with exhaust vents to manage fumes and maintain operator safety.

Principios de la prueba

1. Setup: Fully charged batteries are secured on a mesh platform in the chamber.
2. Combustion Execution: The burner is ignited, and flames are adjusted to a set height (e.g., 38.1mm above the sample) to simulate thermal stress.
3. Post-Test Analysis: Batteries are assessed for structural damage, leaks, and toxic gas emissions. Thermal imaging and gas chromatography data validate compliance with safety thresholds.

Principales ventajas

• Versatility: Suitable for lithium-ion, NiMH, and lead-acid chemistries.
• Precisión: Advanced sensors ensure accurate measurement of thermal events.
• Seguridad: Enclosed chamber with auto-extinguish features and emergency vents.

This machine empowers manufacturers to mitigate thermal-related risks, ensuring batteries meet stringent safety standards and reducing field failures.
