Battery safety is a much-discussed topic, and its importance remains front and center as the energy storage industry continues to expand. Our flammability team actively supports customers with battery safety testing. Flammability testing has focused on flammability analysis of the gas that is released during battery thermal events. These data are used to ensure the enclosure ventilation system and explosion relief panels are adequate for the installation.
Historically, Fauske and our customers have foundadiabatic calorimetryto be a useful method for evaluating thermal stability of battery materials. We continue to expand our capabilities for testing batteries and battery materials. Some of our testing options are shown below, but please contact us if you have interest in other types of custom testing.
