Product Description

UL 9540A Pressure Vessel Battery Abuse and Safety Tester

Introduction:
The Pressure Vessel Battery Abuse Tester provides a safe container in which the tested cells can be thermally run away in a reproducible way while analyzing the conditions of thermal runaway and the changes in temperature and pressure during the thermal runaway process.

The Pressure Vessel Battery Abuse Tester consists of an explosion-resistant pressure vessel, a thermal runaway trigger system, a temperature measurement system, and a pressure measurement system, which can trigger the thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries by heating, short-circuiting, overcharging, and over-discharging in the vessel.

At the same time, it can measure the temperature of the surface of the battery thermal runaway cell, the opening temperature of the gas valve, the voltage change, and the pressure change inside the chamber, and display the test data and curve. The test device is designed with a gas collection port for sampling the gas generated by the thermal runaway of the battery cell and using gas chromatography for composition analysis.

The pressure vessel for battery abuse test is suitable for use in laboratories or research institutes to determine the thermal runaway conditions of lithium-ion batteries, battery safety tests, subsequent extended tests such as composition analysis, lower flammability limit (LFL), upper flammability limit (UFL), explosion pressure test, etc.


The Pressure Vessel consists of:

• Pressure vessel, anti-corrosion steel made, with an internal volume of 82 liters.
• The pressure vessel can withstand a maximum of 3MPa (435 PSI) explosion pressure while configured with an explosion relief valve for safety.
• The explosion relief valve for automatic relief exceeds pressure when reaching 80% of the maximum limits.
• Equipped with a sampling port for gas sampling, with a ball valve to control the opening/close.
• With a sampling gas filtering device at the outlet, a filtering rate not less than 0.5 microns;
• Vessel door lock device, if the vessel has internal pressure, the door can not be opened to protect the operator.
• With observation window on the test vessel.
• Atmospheric gas replenishment device to replenish the chamber with specific atmospheric gas (normally N2).
• A thermal runaway trigger system can set thermal runaway conditions such as heating film, short circuit, overcharge, and discharge.
• The heating element can heat at a specific rate of up to 200°C, with an adjustable heating rate of 4 to 7°C per min.
• With a vacuum pump, the capacity is not less than 2 liters per minute.
• Up to 8 simultaneous temperature data acquisition circuits, with a resolution of 0.1°C.
• The temperature measurement system measures temperature changes within the chamber and can measure temperature changes at specific locations on the test vessel.
• Dual pressure transducers for low and high-range pressure measurement.
• A lower-pressure transducer, with a measuring range of -0.1 to 1.0MPa, has an accuracy of ± 0.5%.
• Equip with protection device to protect lower pressure transducer when the pressure is over range.
• A higher pressure transducer, with a measuring range of 0 to 3.0 MPa, has an accuracy of ± 0.5%.
• Data acquisition system: temperature: 8 channels, voltage: 2 channels, pressure: 2 channels, sampling frequency: 10 Hz, time, resolution of 1 sec.
• Window-based software, function includes:

1) Parameter setting, includes pressure transducer, heating rate, valve controls, etc;
2) Data record & display: temperature, pressure transducer, time, voltage;
3) Data curves display;
4) Auto mode & manual mode;
5) Test report export.
