It also features a large viewing window made of tempered glass with anti-shock and anti-flame properties, allowing for clear visual monitoring of the testing process.
• Precision Climatic and Temperature Control Systems
  • Temperature Control: The temperature control system is highly accurate, capable of maintaining a wide temperature range, typically from -40°C to +150°C, with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. It utilizes advanced refrigeration and heating technologies, along with a sophisticated feedback loop and multiple temperature sensors. This ensures uniform temperature distribution throughout the chamber and minimal temperature fluctuations over time. The control panel allows for easy programming and adjustment of temperature settings, including the ability to create complex temperature profiles with ramping and holding periods.
  • Humidity Control: The humidity control system is equally precise, capable of achieving humidity levels from 10% to 95% RH (Relative Humidity), with an accuracy of ±3% RH. It employs a combination of humidifiers and dehumidifiers, along with a well-designed air circulation system. The chamber is equipped with humidity sensors that continuously monitor the internal humidity, and the control system adjusts the humidification or dehumidification processes accordingly. This allows for the creation of stable and dynamic humidity environments, mimicking real-world scenarios.
  • Climatic Cycling: The machine can perform precise climatic cycling, transitioning between different temperature and humidity conditions. For example, it can rapidly shift from a cold and dry environment to a hot and humid one, simulating the diverse climates that batteries may encounter during transportation, storage, or operation. The control panel enables users to define the rate of change, the duration of each stage, and the number of cycles, providing a highly customizable testing environment.
• Advanced Instrumentation and Data Acquisition
  • The chamber is outfitted with a comprehensive suite of sensors. Temperature sensors are distributed throughout the chamber to monitor the temperature at different locations, ensuring that the samples experience the desired temperature conditions uniformly. Humidity sensors are also strategically placed to accurately measure the relative humidity. In addition, pressure sensors are installed to detect any abnormal pressure build-up within the chamber, which could indicate a potential explosion. Voltage and current sensors are used to track the electrical behavior of the battery during the test. These sensors are connected to a state-of-the-art data acquisition system that records and stores all the climatic, electrical, and pressure data. The data can be accessed and analyzed in real-time or retrieved later for in-depth studies. The data acquisition system is highly flexible and can be integrated with battery-specific software and databases, facilitating seamless data transfer and analysis. It can also be configured to send notifications and reports automatically, saving time and effort for the users. Additionally, the control panel includes built-in alarms and safety features that alert users in case of any abnormal temperature, humidity, pressure, voltage, or current readings, or if the equipment malfunctions.
• Enhanced Safety Features and Emergency Systems
  • The Safety Battery Explosion-proof Climatic Temperature Test Machine is equipped with multiple layers of safety features. It has an automatic fire suppression system that can quickly extinguish any flames that may occur during the test. There are emergency shutdown buttons located in easily accessible positions around the machine, allowing operators to immediately halt the test if any critical parameters exceed safe limits. The machine is designed to vent any potentially harmful gases in a controlled manner, ensuring the safety of the surrounding air quality. It also has a self-diagnostic system that continuously monitors the health of the equipment and alerts operators to any potential issues before they lead to a failure.

3. Specific Parameters

The volume of the chamber can range from a few liters for testing small consumer batteries to several cubic meters for larger industrial or automotive batteries. The interior dimensions are optimized for proper air circulation and uniform heat and humidity distribution, ensuring that all parts of the battery are exposed to the same environmental conditions.
• Temperature Uniformity: The temperature uniformity within the chamber is maintained within ±1°C during both high and low-temperature conditions. This ensures that all parts of the battery samples experience a similar thermal environment, which is crucial for obtaining accurate and reliable test results.
• Humidity Uniformity: The humidity uniformity is maintained within ±5% RH, guaranteeing that the samples are exposed to consistent moisture levels throughout the chamber.
• Data Acquisition Rate: The data acquisition system can sample sensor data at a frequency of 20 to 200 samples per second. This high sampling rate ensures that even the most rapid changes in the battery's behavior during the test are accurately recorded and can be analyzed in detail.
• Explosion-proof Rating: The machine is designed to meet the highest explosion-proof standards, such as Ex d IIB T4 or higher, depending on the specific requirements of the application. This rating ensures that the machine can safely contain any potential explosions and prevent the spread of flames and hot gases to the surrounding environment.

4. Product Functions

• Accurate Simulation of Battery Environmental Stress
  • The primary function of this machine is to provide a highly accurate and realistic simulation of the climatic and temperature conditions that batteries may face. By precisely controlling the temperature, humidity, and other environmental parameters, it allows users to evaluate how batteries will perform and degrade over time. For example, it can determine if a battery's capacity will decrease, its internal resistance will increase, or if it will experience any physical or chemical changes under extreme heat or cold, high humidity, or rapid climatic cycling. This information is crucial for battery manufacturers to optimize their product designs and manufacturing processes, ensuring that their batteries can withstand a wide range of environmental conditions.
  • The ability to conduct repeatable tests with different battery chemistries and designs is also a valuable function. This helps in comparing the performance of various batteries and identifying the most suitable materials and configurations. For instance, a manufacturer can test different types of lithium-ion batteries with varying cathode and anode materials to determine which combination offers the best resistance to temperature and humidity-induced degradation and the lowest risk of explosion.
• Enhanced Battery Quality and Research Capabilities
  • Through comprehensive testing in the machine, battery manufacturers can identify and address potential issues in their battery designs. If a battery shows signs of instability, leakage, or excessive gas release during the test, appropriate measures can be taken, such as modifying the electrolyte composition, improving the separator design, or enhancing the battery's casing strength. This leads to the development of more reliable and durable batteries, reducing the risk of failures and recalls. In the research field, it allows for the exploration of new battery materials and technologies, providing valuable data on their behavior under extreme environmental conditions.
