Why choose Precision Engineering for new energy battery pressure resistance and air tightness testing? Four advantages of one article to understand

Lithium BatteryPressure-resistant airtightness testThe core purpose of the "Battery Case" is to verify that the battery case or module, when subjected to a specific air pressure (or hydraulic pressure)Sealing performance and structural strengthTo ensure that the battery cells will not be subsequently charged, discharged, stored, transported, warmed, or subjected to external forces.Risk of liquid leakage, air leakage or bursting. This is both a safety requirement and a key aspect of regulations and quality control.

First, why lithium batteries must do pressure resistance and air tightness test

The internal package structure of lithium battery is extremely precise, the electrolyte is sensitive to moisture and has a certain corrosiveness, once the seal is bad, it will directly cause the following problems:

Precision Engineering customizedPull the explosion of water detection machine

  1. Electrochemical safety risks::
    If there is a micro-leakage in the shell weld, pole post, valve port, etc., air or moisture will react with the electrolyte after entering, generating gas and heat, leading to bulging of the core, capacity degradation and even thermal runaway.
  2. Mechanical structure reliability::
    Modules and PACK packages are often subjected to multiple cold/heat cycles or vibration testing, and structural fatigue can cause micro-cracks. Pressurized hermetic testing can detect hidden defects in advance and prevent failure after mass production.
  3. Regulatory and quality standard requirements::
    Power batteries must comply with standards such as GB/T 31484 (cycle life and safety requirements), UN38.3 (transportation safety certification), etc., all of which require that they have the following featuresShell Seal Integrity Verification RecordThe

Second, the principle and method of pressure resistance air tightness test

In the industry, two types of methods are commonly used for lithium battery cases:

Test Methodsbrief outline of principletypical application
direct pressureFill the measured chamber with the set pressure (e.g. 30 kPa ~ 300 kPa), hold the pressure for a period of time, and monitor the pressure drop to determine if there is any air leakage.Cylindrical cores, module cavities
helium detectionVacuum the enclosure or assembly and measure the rate of return of helium concentration to determine leakageSquare cell, fully enclosed structure
"pull-explode" method (physics)Pressurize to a limit value of a few MPa and observe shell deformation or rupture pressure.Shell Strength Test

In automated production lines, these tests are usually performed byPrecision EngineeringNew Energy Test Equipmentexecution, you can quickly determine whether the product meets the standard.

Third, the relationship between the air tightness test and the pressure resistance test

Pressure Resistance Test ConcernsHow much pressure it can withstand without breaking"Airtightness Testing Concerns"Leakage of air at operating pressure".

Fourth, Jingcheng Industrial Technology in the lithium battery pressure resistance air tightness test application advantages
