IEC

Specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and performance requirements for portable sealed nickel-metal hydride, small prismatic, cylindrical and button rechargeable single cells, suitable for use in any orientation. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2003 of which it constitutes a technical revision.

This standard and standard 62133-2 below are in development and are categorized in: Aerospace electric equipment and systems, Electrical and electronic equipment. These standards address safety of the respective battery chemistries for portable applications.

The standard specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for vented Nickel Cadmium prismatic secondary single cells where special provisions have been made in order to have partial or, under very specific conditions, full gas recombination.

This part of the IEC 62485 applies to stationary secondary batteries and battery installations with a maximum voltage of DC 1 500 V (nominal) and describes the principal measures for protections against hazards generated from electricity, gas emission, and electrolyte.

The standard provides requirements on safety aspects associated with the erection, use, inspection, maintenance and disposal of cells and batteries for stationary applications and motive (other than on-road vehicle). Under development moving toward the committee draft voting stage. Includes safety requirements for lithium-ion cells for stationary and off-road motive applications and some battery requirements (evaluation of battery and battery management system [BMS] combination). Not a system standard, as it covers only battery and BMS interaction.

The standard specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for large format lithium-ion secondary single cells and batteries used in Industrial Applications including Stationary applications.

The standard covers specifies marking, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for sealed nickel-metal hydride prismatic secondary single cells.

This technical report is in development is categorized in: Acid secondary, Alkaline secondary, Cells & batteries.

This standard applies to electrolytes and their components when used in vented nickel-cadmium cells. These electrolytes are used: for filling cells supplied without filling electrolyte, and/or, for refilling cells if change of electrolyte is required, and/or, if the operating electrolyte needs to be topped up with water, provided no specific recommendations from the manufacturer are available.

IEC 61427-2:2015 relates to secondary batteries used in on-grid Electrical Energy Storage (EES) applications and provides the associated methods of test for the verification of their endurance, properties and electrical performance in such applications. The test methods are essentially battery chemistry neutral, i.e. applicable to all secondary battery types.
