Unlock the Potential of Your Batteries with Environmental Testing

Environmental testing is a method of battery performance evaluation that can be used to determine the effects of temperature, humidity and other environmental factors on your batteries. This type of testing is important for ensuring that your products will perform as expected in real-world conditions. Environmental test chambers are also beneficial because they allow you to test multiple batteries at once, which reduces your time and cost per unit tested. They’re perfect for companies looking to reduce their costs while still maintaining quality control standards! What is Environmental Testing? Environmental testing is a method of evaluating batteries in conditions that simulate real-world use. Environmental chambers are used to control temperature, humidity and other factors that can affect battery performance. In order to understand why environmental chamber testing is important, first you need to know what types of chambers exist: Temperature Chambers These are used to create both hot and cold environments where products such as lithium-ion cells and batteries can be tested. They’re also useful for determining how much current your device can handle before overheating or shorting out due to excessive heat build-up inside it, or measure performance in cold conditions Humidity Chambers These chambers simulate real-world conditions by exposing samples inside them with both high humidity levels (80%+) as well as high temperatures (upwards of 150 degrees Fahrenheit). This allows researchers studying new materials or designs for electric vehicles (EVs) who want their products tested under different climates before being released onto the market. Why is Environmental Testing Important? Environmental testing is important because it allows you to assess the effect of temperature and humidity on battery performance by testing your batteries in extreme conditions. It’s easy to assume that batteries will perform well at room temperature, but this isn’t always the case. The ideal operating temperature for a lithium-ion battery is 20 degrees Celsius (68 degrees Fahrenheit), but if you’re using your device in a hot climate or during summer months, it could be subjected to temperatures as high as 40 degrees Celsius (104 F). Similarly, if you live in an area where winters are harsh and cold weather lasts for months on end–or even just one particularly long winter–you may experience freezing temperatures that can affect the performance of your devices’ batteries. Temperature fluctuations can also cause issues with humidity levels: when exposed to high levels of moisture over time, many types of metals will corrode; this corrosion can cause short circuits within electronic devices which would render them unusable. Unitemp offers a range of Espec battery testing chambers designed to meet industry standards which can be customised to suit specific testing requirements. Whether you’re in the automotive, aerospace, or energy industry, Espec environmental test chambers can provide you with the tools you need to ensure the quality and performance of your batteries.
