Control

Enhanced Communications & Control Options

• The digital input option provides 8 inputs that can be configured for various control functions, including starting, stopping, and pausing a profile. The “wait for” function allows the user to pause a profile during a particular step of the profile until a specific digital input is turned on or off.
• Digital output The “customer event” feature provides 15 programmable outputs. Each output can be configured to perform other operations, including alarm or profile status indicators, for more control over your testing.
• Optional refrigeration monitor package displays and data logs temperatures and refrigeration system compressor suction/discharge pressures.
• The condensation control option helps prevent condensation from collecting on the part by automatically managing the air dewpoint.
• The barcode option allows the user to scan a barcode to start a profile and to add notes to current data file when data logging.

Construction

  • SS‑304 stainless steel inner chamber for corrosion resistance and durability
  • MS powder‑coated exterior for long‑term structural integrity
  • High‑efficiency insulation for energy savings and stable temperature control
  • Explosion‑proof design options for enhanced battery safety testing

A Battery Test Chamber is a specialized environmental testing system designed to evaluate the performance, safety, and durability of batteries under controlled temperature, humidity, and altitude conditions. It simulates real-world and extreme environmental stresses to assess battery behavior before commercial use.

Battery testing ensures safety and reliability by identifying risks such as thermal runaway, overheating, swelling, or failure under extreme conditions. It's critical for industries like EV manufacturing, consumer electronics, aerospace, and energy storage, where battery failure can lead to serious safety hazards.

BioGene Battery Test Chambers are designed to meet international safety standards including UN 38.3, IEC 62133, IEC 62619, UL 2580, SAE J2464, GB/T 31485, and IS 16046, depending on the application and region.

Common tests include thermal shock testing, overcharge/over-discharge testing, short circuit testing, thermal runaway/propagation testing, altitude simulation, humidity cycling, and temperature cycling testing.

Most Battery Test Chambers operate within a range of -70°C to +180°C, though this varies depending on the specific model and intended test standard (e.g., thermal runaway chambers often need higher upper limits).

Yes, chambers can be customized for cell-level, module-level, or full battery pack-level testing depending on chamber size, load capacity, and safety features required.
