TESTA BT – Battery Testing Chambers
Product Descriptions
As advances in technology drive the proliferation of portable devices and electric vehicles, the need for highperforming and reliable batteries has never been more crucial.
Our environmental chambers provide a controlled environment, emulating the diverse temperature and humidity
conditions that batteries may encounter throughout their lifecycle. As such, Aralab offers an optimized range of battery
testing solutions in line with the EUCAR hazard levels, ensuring safe, reliable, and sophisticated testing for energy
storage systems.
We provide both standard and tailor-made solutions, putting an emphasis on planning and creating individual systems
that adhere to your specific application needs. Each chamber can be equipped with a variety of safety measures based
on your internal hazard analysis, complying with the EUCAR Hazard Level classifications.
Rechargeable Lithium Batteries
Rechargeable Lithium Batteries became the choice energy storage for portable electronic devices, appliances, electric bicycles, vehicles, military equipment, etc. Reliability and safety become crucial. The batteries must perform well in hot and cold conditions, while not posing a hazard due to leaking or exploding.
Published standards by IEC, SAE, UL, and UN specify environmental tests like temperature cycling, heat resistance, thermal abuse
and short circuit while hot.
Because failure during testing can produce hazardous results, these test chambers will require proper safety features and considerations
| The most common test standards for lithium ion battery | |
| IEC 62660-2 | Abuse testing of automotive batteries |
| SAE J2464 | Automotive rechargeable batteries |
| IEC 60086-4 | Safety of lithium batteries |
| UL 1642 | Lithium ion batteries |
| UN/DOT 38.3 | Testing lithium ion batteries |
| IEC 61960 | Portable battery cells |
| UL 2054 | Consumer and commercial batteries |
| IEEE 1625 | Laptop rechargeable batteries |
