7.10 Status of the cell as of ex-factory
The cell should be shipped in 3.44V ~ 3.54V Charging voltage range.
8. Mechanical Characteristics
8.1 Drop Test
Test method: Each fully charged cell or battery is dropped three times from a height of
1.0 m onto a concrete floor. The cells or batteries are dropped so as to
obtain impacts in random orientations. After the test, the sample shall be
put on rest for a minimum of one hour and then a visual inspection shall
be performed.
Criteria: No fire, no explosion
(Test shall be performed with the following criteria IEC 62133)
8.2 Vibration Test
Test method: As to the UN transportation regulation(UN38.3), for each axis (X and Y
axis with cylindrical cells) 7Hz→200Hz→7Hz for 15min,
repetition 12 times totally 3hours, the acceleration 1g during 7 to 18Hz
and 8g (amplitude 1.6mm) up to 200Hz.
Criteria: No leakage, with less than 10mV of OCV drop
9. Safety
9.1 Overcharge test
Test method: To charge the standard charged cell with 12V and 3C(8,250mA) at 23°C
for 7 hours
Criteria: No fire, and no explosion.
Overcharge test shall be performed with the UL1642 standard
9.2 External short-circuit test
Test method: Fully rated charged cell is to be short-circuited by connecting the positive
and negative terminals of the battery with a circuit load having a
resistance load of 80 ±20 mΩ. The battery is to discharge until a fire or
explosion is obtained, or until it has reached a completely discharged
state of less than 0.2 V and the battery case temperature has returned to
±10°C of ambient temperature. The return to near ambient of the battery
(cell) casing in an indication of ultimate results.
Tests are to be conducted at 20 ±5°C and at 55 ±5°C.
Criteria: No fire, and no explosion.
External short-circuit test shall be performed with the UL1642 standard
