New Energy 8 Year Battery Inspection

How often should a battery be inspected?

Measure the electrolyte temperature of 10% or more of the battery cells. At least once per year, the quarterly inspection will be augmented as follows: In the case of a lead-antimony battery, measure and record specific gravity and electrolyte temperature of all cells.

Why is CT inspection important for battery testing?

As the battery market evolves and global demand skyrockets, the need for better, more innovative battery testing methods becomes even more critical. New technologies, such as CT inspection, are giving battery manufacturers the tools they need to meet the growing demand and stay ahead of the pack.

What is the Li-ion battery revision?

The revision, effective from February 15, 2019, aims to promote the healthy development of the Li-ion battery sector. Higher standards for quality inspections over battery materials would be required. This is likely to improve the quality of motive batteries in new energy vehicles.

When should a battery be tested?

When the battery shows signs of degradation (decrease in 10% from last test) or is below 90% of the manufacturers rated capacity it is recommended that the batteries be capacity tested annually.

How can non-destructive battery testing help manufacturers stay ahead?

Fortunately, new technologies in the world of non-destructive battery testing, such as CT inspection, hold the secret for many manufacturers. By detecting failures early to avoid downstream costs, manufacturers can stay ahead of the curve and ride this surge of upward growth.
