Test specification
T6
Impact test
(UN38.3-6)
6-1. Cell’s diameter ≧ 18mm, Execution impact test. (A 9.1 Kg mass is to be
dropped from a height of 61+2.5cm onto the sample.)
6-2. Cell’s diameter ＜18mm, Execution crush test (The cells are crushed with a 13
KN with the crush tester. Once the force is obtained it is to be released.)
T7
Overcharge test
(UN38.3-7)
7-1. The charge current shall be twice the SPEC’s recommended maximum continuous
charge current.
7-2. The minimum voltage of the test shall be as follows:
(a) When the SPEC’s recommended charge voltage is not more than 18V, the
minimum voltage of the test shall be the lesser of two times the maximum charge
voltage of the battery or 22V.
(b) When the SPEC’s recommended charge voltage is more than 18V, the minimum
voltage of the test shall be 1.2 times the maximum charge voltage.
7-3. Tests are to be conducted at ambient temperature. The duration of the test shall be 24
hours.
T8
Forced discharge
test-cell only
(UN38.3-8)
8-1. Cell shall be forced discharged at ambient temperature by connecting it in series
with a 12 V D.C. power supply at an initial current equal to the maximum
discharge current Specified by the manufacturer.
