Battery testing
Safety, performance and compliance throughout the lifecycle
Why carry out battery tests?
- Guarantee the safety of users and infrastructures in the face of thermal, electrical or mechanical risks.
- Check compliance with regulations and international standards (UN 38.3, R100, UL 2580, etc.).
- Optimise performance and lifespan through validation under real or extreme conditions.
- Identify and correct weaknesses before production or marketing.
- Reduce the risk of failure, product recalls and the costs associated with non-conformities.
What sectors are involved in these trials?
Automotive
Aeronautics, defence and space
Energy and industrial applications
Industry & consumer, medical and telecom/IoT
Our battery testing services
Parametric tests for correct operation
These tests validate fundamental electrical performance, communication with the BMS and the watertightness of cells, modules and packs. They ensure that your batteries are working properly before the regulatory or abuse qualification phases.
Endurance tests
By simulating long-term charge/discharge cycles in a controlled environment, these tests verify the capacity and performance of high-power batteries over time. They enable us to predict their lifespan and validate their thermal and electrical behaviour.
Abusive and safety tests
Overcharging, puncturing, crushing, thermal runaway, fire... These extreme scenarios are recreated to test the resistance of your batteries and validate their safety in accordance with UN 38.3, R100, UL 2580 and other standards.
Mechanical tests (vibration, shock, etc.)
Designed to simulate the severe conditions of transport or mobile use, these tests assess the mechanical strength and structural resistance of your batteries, under vibration, shock or combined stresses.
Tests in climatic and physico-chemical environments
Temperature, humidity, salt spray, immersion, dust or altitude: these tests validate the robustness of your batteries in extreme or constrained environments, with a combined approach to stress factors.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing
Electromagnetic compatibility tests ensure that your batteries do not disturb their electromagnetic environment and do not themselves malfunction. These tests are required in many qualification campaigns.
Full support for testing: Expertise, instrumentation, etc
Our engineers can help you with product instrumentation, post-mortem analysis, test plan development and fault diagnosis. These high added-value services support the reliability of your solutions.
