What is a battery crash test?

This process ensures maximum electric vehicle battery safety. Ou r battery crash test centre in Oberpfaffenhofen and other global locations offer the following test services: Within the scope of these tests, the batteries are exposed to defined crash pulses or loads as required by the relevant standard, e.g. ECE-R 100.

How are electric vehicle batteries tested?

To ensure that the battery is as safe as a conventional fuel tank, it is necessary to test electric vehicle batteries by modelling the actual conditions of a crash that may cause major deformation of the battery. The tests are conducted at our crash test facility, which utilizes impactors with variable mass and geometry.

What safety tests are required for a battery pack?

To conform to such standards, the battery pack must pass safety tests such as the dielectric strength test, insulation resistance test, ground bond test, leakage current test…etc. In the industry, most companies use a single electrical safety analyzer to execute these safety tests.

What are the benefits of a battery crash test?

Only crash tests supply substantiated information on how batteries will respond in case of an accident and can deliver various benefits: Gain reliable insights about the safety performance of b atteries installed in vehicles with battery crash tests as the only valid source.

Are mechanical shock test standards used for EV battery module and pack?
