BATTERY SAFETY MATTERS: WHAT SAFETY FEATURES TO CONSIDER WHEN BATTERY TESTING

 

 

Standard AES Chambers
AES SAFE Required
Severity Level Description Severity Classification & Effects Criteria
0 No Effect No effect. No loss of functionality.
1 Reversible Loss of Function No defect; no leakage; no venting, fire, or flame; no rupture; no explosion; no exothermic reaction or thermal runaway. Cell reversibly damaged. Repair of protection device needed.
2 Irreversible Defect/Damage No leakage; no venting, fire, or flame; no rupture; no explosion; no exothermic reaction or thermal runaway. Cell irreversibly damaged. Repair needed.
3 Leakage
Δ mass <50%
No venting, fire, or flame; no rupture; no explosion. Weight loss <50% of electrolyte weight (electrolyte = solvent + salt).
4 Venting
Δ mass >=50%
No fire or flame; no rupture; no explosion. Weight loss ≥50% of electrolyte weight (electrolyte = solvent + salt).
5 Fire or Flame No rupture; no explosion (i.e., no flying parts).
6 Rupture No explosion, but flying parts of the active mass.
7 Explosion Explosion (i.e., disintegration of the cell)
