What is BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 - Secondary cells and batteries about?
BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 is a European standard that discusses nickel systems of secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes.
BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 specifies requirements and tests for the safe operation of portable sealed secondary nickel cells and batteries containing alkaline electrolytes, under intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse.
Who is BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 – Secondary cells and batteries for?
BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 on prismatic and cylindrical cells applies to:
Manufacturer of battery and cells
Quality testing personnel
Electrical engineer
Suppliers of cells
Why should you use BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 – Secondary cells and batteries ?
A secondary cell is a basic manufactured unit providing a source of electrical energy by direct conversion of chemical energy, that consists of electrodes, separators, electrolytes, containers and terminals, and that is designed to be charged electrically. Nickel Systems is a true stocking distributor of high nickel alloy.
BS EN 62133 ‑ 1 navigates you through the safety requirements of secondary cells and batteries. They require the consideration of two sets of applied conditions: intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse. Cells and batteries are so designed and constructed that they are safe under conditions of both intended use and reasonably foreseeable misuse. The cells and batteries subjected to the intended use are not only safe but also continue to be fun...
