Explosion-Proof Battery Test Chamber

The Sanwood Explosion-Proof Battery Test Chamber is a highly specialized environmental test chamber (also widely utilized as a climatic test chamber) engineered for safety-critical thermal testing of small-sized batteries, including lithium-ion cells, pouch cells, and cylindrical cells. Built with a reinforced structural explosion-proof design, it integrates an eco-friendly CO2 (R744) refrigeration system with GWP=1 to fully comply with strict European F-Gas regulations. The system features advanced active safety mechanisms—such as automatic pressure relief venting, anti-explosion door chains, and gas detection—ensuring absolute laboratory containment up to EUCAR Hazard Level 7 during sudden thermal runaway events.

Optimized for automotive OEMs, consumer electronics manufacturers, and R&D labs, this compact system is SGS/UL CE certified, ensuring flawless alignment with global safety directives. It syncs seamlessly with external battery cyclers for safe, repeatable environmental simulation, guaranteeing your next-generation cell technologies confidently achieve full compliance with UL 2580, IEC 62133, UN 38.3, and UL 1642 standards.

Refrigeration System of The Test Chamber

The refrigeration system of the test chamber is a complex and important system. The stability of the refrigeration system is crucial to the accuracy and reliability of the test results.

  • Sanwood Technology has developed a refrigerant hot gas defrosting technology, which effectively melts the frost on the evaporator by injecting high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant steam into the heat exchanger in the test chamber. This not only ensures that the evaporator does not frost, but also greatly reduces the energy consumption of the equipment.
  • The refrigeration unit adopts an internationally renowned brand.
  • Optimize the layout of the refrigeration system, and adopt VRF (refrigerant flow control) technology based on the PID cold end output principle to achieve low-temperature energy-saving operation, which can reduce energy consumption by 30% under low-temperature conditions.
  • The refrigeration system adopts a modular design, with low failure rate, few welding points, high refrigeration efficiency, good reliability, simple maintenance, and low maintenance cost.
  • Optional CO₂ refrigeration system, GWP=1.
