Battery Testing Chambers

Battery testing chambers are specialized facilities designed to comprehensively evaluate batteries, ensuring their safety, performance, and durability under controlled environmental conditions. These rooms are crucial to researching, designing, and testing several battery technologies, including lithium-ion, lead-acid, and nickel-metal hydride. Battery test chambers can evaluate a battery's behavior and performance under controlled conditions by simulating harsh conditions, including high-temperature cycling, overcharging, and short-circuiting.

The Test Chamber

CM Envirosystems (CME), a top battery test chamber manufacturer, has created and produced temperature-humidity-regulated solutions for over 38 years, making it a frontrunner in the environmental test chamber market. CME offers a selection of battery testing chambers to accommodate batteries of varying sizes. Our extensive background allows us to offer the most economical options. Battery cycles, control systems, monitoring data gathering systems, and other test equipment can be interfaced with the test chamber to create a fully integrated test solution.

Types of Batteries tested by our chambers

Primary Batteries (Non-Rechargeable)

Non-rechargeable (primary) batteries can be tested in our chambers. This includes lithium-based primary batteries. Disposable batteries are tested to determine how well they will function in various applications, from remote controls to medical equipment.

Secondary Batteries (Lithium-Ion, Rechargeable)

We are experts in the testing of secondary batteries, and in particular lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. Commonly found in consumer electronics, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems, rechargeable batteries have their charging and discharging properties, cycle life, and safety evaluated in these tests.

Lead Acid Batteries

Our chambers can also be used to test lead-acid batteries, which are widely used in automobiles, backup generators, and heavy machinery. Lead-acid batteries are tested to evaluate their efficiency, capacity, and durability to guarantee their dependability in difficult conditions.

Test Variants for the Battery Test Chambers

Electrical Test

Electrical tests for batteries include the external short circuit test, which checks a cell's resistance to maximum current flow without causing explosions or fires; the abnormal charging test, assessing a cell's ability to endure overcharging without hazardous outcomes; and the forced discharge test, which evaluates cell behavior when connected in an imbalanced series pack without permitting explosions or fires during short-circuiting.

Types:

External short circuit test
Abnormal charging test
Forced discharge test

Environmental Tests

Batteries are subjected to a variety of environmental tests, such as a high-temperature heating test, a low-pressure test that simulates altitude, a reverse charge test that evaluates responses to charging in the opposite direction, and a penetration test that uses a metal rod to measure different parameters while making sure cells do not explode, ignite, vent, or leak.

Types:

Heating test
Temperature Cycling Test
Low-Pressure Test
Reverse Charge Test
Penetration Test

Safety Features

Mechanical Door Lock:
In addition to the reversible pressure release flap, the mechanical space door has two bolts that keep the door closed mechanically.

Electrical door lock:
During both the automatic and human testing phases, the door to the test area is locked using an electrical door lock. When the program is interrupted, the door to the testing area can be unlocked automatically by turning off the entire testing system.

Explosion and Fireproof Construction:
Aluminum fans that are resistant to sparks are to be used. Burst-disc pressure-reduction apparatus with official certification Large amounts of gas can be released into the test area if the battery is compromised. The chamber can be outfitted with a pressure release mechanism linked to a waste air duct to remove the gas quickly. To do this, a pressure-resistant version of the test space container is produced, and a rectangular burst disc is installed in the ceiling.

Status Display:
The device has a spot for the signal light. When an issue arises, a red warning light will blink rapidly. In addition, an audible signal might be transmitted.

Fire Alarm System:
Carbon monoxide (CO) detection is used to find fires. Using a gas measuring line and temperature control of the sample gas, CO levels in the air can be determined using an electrochemical sensor. The alarm contacts are conveniently placed on the test cabinet. In addition to oxygen (O2), hydrogen (H2) monitoring is doable with this alternative. A separate PT 100 temperature sensor detects the fire. The sensor records a possible fire in the test cabinet as an increase in temperature.

Pressure Relief Vent:
Stress Reduction Release any built-up pressure in the testing area via a pressure release valve.

FAQs

Can a battery test chamber accommodate different sizes and types, or are they designed for specific applications?

Battery test chambers can be used for various tasks because of their adaptability to different battery sizes and kinds.

What safety features should I consider in a battery test chamber to protect personnel and the testing environment?

When testing volatile or hazardous batteries, it is extremely important to protect the safety of employees and the testing environment with features such as explosion-proof design, fire suppression systems, gas detection systems, emergency shut-off controls, and enough ventilation.

What are the key parameters and conditions that battery test chambers simulate during testing?

Thermal cycling, overcharging, temperature, humidity, crushing forces, shock, vibration, impact, etc., can all be simulated in a battery test chamber. Battery performance, safety, and dependability can all be evaluated under these conditions.

What types of batteries can be tested in a battery test chamber?

Batteries such as lithium-ion lead-acid batteries, such as lithium-ion, lead-acid nickel-metal hydride batteries, and others can be tested in battery test chambers. They can assess the performance of batteries in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, aircraft, and other industrial settings.
