Air Tightness Tester: Sealing Test for New Energy Vehicle Battery Packs - PLUS Automation

Publish Date:15-06-2024

As China's new energy economy continues to rise, shared e-bikes and shared cars have become the preferred choice for travel thanks to their energy efficiency, environmental friendliness, and convenience. Driven by the new energy economy, the e-bike industry is developing rapidly. As the core component, the power battery pack has seen its safety issues gradually come to the fore, directly affecting people and even posing social safety concerns. As a result, air tightness testing equipment for new energy battery packs (packs) has emerged, ensuring that battery packs meet industry standards for waterproofing and leakage prevention before leaving the factory.

2. The air tightness performance of the battery pack is crucial to the safety and performance of the battery. The following is a possible battery pack air tightness testing solution:

1. Prepare the air tightness leak detector: Select an air tightness leak detector suitable for battery pack air tightness performance testing. Ensure that the instrument can meet the required test range and accuracy requirements.

2. Prepare test samples: Select a certain number of battery packs as test samples. The samples should be representative, covering battery packs from different batches and specifications.

3. Prepare the test environment: Conduct the test in a sealed test environment to ensure the accuracy of the test results. This can be achieved using a sealed test chamber or test room.

4. Perform the test: Place the battery pack into the test environment and connect it to the air tightness leak detector. Carry out the air tightness performance test according to the operating instructions of the air tightness leak detector. During the test, the instrument determines the air tightness performance by monitoring the pressure changes of the battery pack.

5. Analyze test results: Based on the test results, evaluate the air tightness performance of each sample. For non-conforming samples, further analyze the cause of leakage and take corresponding measures for improvement.

6. Recording and reporting: Record the test results of each sample and generate a test report. The report should include the test data, evaluation results, and improvement suggestions for each sample.

7. Tracking and monitoring: Qualified samples can be tracked and monitored to ensure the stability of their air tightness performance during use.

    It should be noted that the air tightness test of the battery pack should be customized according to the specific battery pack type and application requirements. At the same time, relevant safety operating procedures must be followed during the testing process to ensure the safety of operators.
