Battery testing standards and test specifications

Compliant battery testing – Battery tests determined according to international standards include tests in the areas of environmental stress, electricity, mechanical stress, and performance/aging.

Battery testing standards and test specifications

A wide range of standards and test specifications define the type of tests that must be carried out on batteries. In order to achieve reliably comparable results at all times, the prerequisites and the test procedure are precisely defined. We support you in the planning and implementation of a tailor-made solution for your testing task. Of course, we adhere to all relevant standards and specifications and advise you in detail if required.
