Procedure
- Low Temperature Testing: Batteries are placed in a chamber at sub-zero temperatures.
- High Temperature Testing: Batteries are subjected to high-temperature conditions.
- Performance Monitoring: Battery performance, including capacity and discharge rates, is monitored to assess reliability.
Results
Batteries that pass this test demonstrate their ability to function optimally in environments with significant temperature fluctuations, ensuring reliability for users in diverse climates.
2. High Current Charge and Discharge Test
Purpose
To confirm the batteries’ capacity to handle high current situations without compromising their lifespan.
Procedure
- Charge Test: Batteries are charged at high currents to their maximum capacity.
- Discharge Test: Batteries are then discharged rapidly.
- Cycle Repetition: The charge and discharge cycles are repeated multiple times.
Results
This test verifies that our LifePO4 batteries can maintain optimal power output even under high-demand conditions, ensuring dependable performance in critical applications.
3. Cycle Life Test
Purpose
To determine the overall lifespan and durability of the batteries by simulating real-world usage patterns.
Procedure
- Repeated Cycles: Batteries undergo thousands of charge and discharge cycles.
- Performance Monitoring: The capacity and efficiency of the batteries are measured throughout the cycles.
Results
Batteries that endure this test without significant degradation confirm their long-term reliability, making them ideal for applications requiring sustained use.
4. Drop Test
Purpose
To evaluate the structural integrity and resilience of the batteries when subjected to accidental drops.
Procedure
- Height Specification: Batteries are dropped from a predetermined height.
- Impact Analysis: The batteries are inspected for structural damage and performance issues.
Results
This test ensures that our LifePO4 batteries can withstand accidental drops without compromising their functionality or safety, providing peace of mind to users.
5. Heavy Impact Test
Purpose
To assess the batteries’ ability to withstand severe collision forces.
Procedure
- Impact Simulation: Batteries are subjected to heavy impacts.
- Damage Assessment: Structural and functional integrity is evaluated post-impact.
Results
Our batteries’ ability to endure heavy impacts confirms their robustness and suitability for use in demanding environments.
6. Thermal Shock Test
Purpose
To determine the batteries’ resilience to sudden and extreme temperature changes.
Procedure
- Rapid Temperature Change: Batteries are exposed to sudden shifts from high to low temperatures and vice versa.
- Performance Monitoring: The impact on battery performance and safety is closely monitored.
Results
Batteries that pass this test are proven to withstand rapid temperature variations, ensuring reliability in fluctuating conditions.
7. Vibration Test
Purpose
To evaluate the batteries’ performance under constant vibrations, simulating conditions in various applications.
Procedure
- Vibration Exposure: Batteries are subjected to continuous vibrations.
- Integrity Check: Performance and structural integrity are assessed during and after exposure.
Results
This test ensures that our LifePO4 batteries can maintain their performance and structural integrity even in vibration-prone environments.
8. Short Circuit Test
Purpose
To assess the batteries’ response to short circuits, ensuring safety.
Procedure
- Intentional Short Circuit: A short circuit is induced within the battery.
- Safety Monitoring: The battery’s reaction, including heat generation and containment, is closely monitored.
Results
Batteries that handle short circuits without excessive heat generation or safety risks confirm their safe design and reliability.
