Explosion-Proof Battery Test Chamber
Explosion-proof environmental test chamber engineered for safe lithium-ion battery temperature, humidity, cycling and abuse testing with configurable protection systems for demanding battery validation programs.
Engineered for Reliable Environmental Testing
The Explosion-Proof Battery Test Chamber is a specialised environmental testing system designed for evaluating the safety, reliability and environmental performance of lithium-ion batteries, cells and battery modules under demanding temperature and humidity conditions.
The chamber combines programmable climatic testing with configurable safety protection to support battery temperature cycling, high- and low-temperature testing, storage evaluation, overcharge and over-discharge related programs, thermal-abuse scenarios and other battery reliability procedures.
A reinforced chamber structure and optional safety systems are intended to help isolate hazards associated with battery failure events such as thermal runaway, internal short circuits, pressure release, flames and related abnormal conditions.
Available in multiple chamber capacities from 80 L to 1000 L, the platform can be configured for battery manufacturers, EV and new-energy companies, research laboratories and validation facilities.
Technical Data
Controls, Standards & Configuration
Control System
The programmable control system supports heating, cooling, constant-temperature operation and multi-step environmental test profiles. RS232, RS485 and Ethernet communication interfaces can be configured for integration with laboratory monitoring systems. Multi-language controller operation is available. Remote network monitoring allows operators to review chamber conditions and current test data from connected PCs and supported mobile devices. Controller configuration may vary according to the selected chamber model and project specification.
Safety / Special Configuration
The chamber can be configured with safety protection appropriate to battery hazard testing and EUCAR hazard levels 0–7. Available project configurations may include reinforced explosion-resistant construction, pressure-relief provisions, fire and flame isolation, ventilation and exhaust interfaces, smoke or gas detection, emergency shutdown systems, electrical interlocks and other battery-specific protection measures. The exact safety package must be selected according to the battery chemistry, specimen energy level, test standard and expected failure mode. Battery abuse and thermal-runaway testing should only be performed using a configuration specifically engineered and validated for the intended hazard level.
Environmental / Refrigeration System
The refrigeration system is designed for stable low-temperature operation and repeatable battery environmental testing. Hot-gas defrost technology helps control evaporator frosting during demanding low-temperature test cycles. Variable refrigerant-flow control based on PID cooling demand supports energy-efficient operation and can reduce low-temperature energy consumption. The modular refrigeration architecture is designed for improved reliability, reduced welding points, high refrigeration efficiency and easier maintenance. An optional CO₂ refrigeration configuration with GWP=1 is available depending on the project requirement.
