In order to control the battery safety risks, different countries and organizations have gradually increased the series of battery certifications. So what are the battery certifications?<\/p>\n
With the continued popularity of the consumer electronics market, the lithium battery market has developed rapidly. Not only has its application scope and quantity continued to expand, but the energy of a single battery has also become higher and higher. The continuous lithium battery safety accidents have also made people pay more and more attention to the safety of lithium batteries.<\/p>\n
Therefore, a series of certification standards have been formulated around the world to address battery safety issues. So what are the battery certifications?<\/p>\n
China Certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n 3C Certification (CCC): The full name is the compulsory product certification system. It is a product conformity assessment system implemented by the Chinese government in accordance with laws and regulations to protect consumer personal safety and national security, strengthen product quality management, and implement laws and regulations. If you don’t pass 3C, you can’t circulate in the Chinese market.<\/p>\n International Organization for Standardization Certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n ISO9001: ISO9001 does not refer to a standard, but a general term for a class of standards. It is all international standards formulated by TC176 (TC176 refers to the Technical Committee for Quality Management Systems). It is the best-selling and most common product among more than 12,000 ISO standards. ISO9001 quality assurance system is the foundation of enterprise development and growth.<\/p>\n ISO14001: Environmental management system certification refers to the assessment of the environmental management system of the supplier (producer) by a third-party notary agency based on the publicly released environmental management system standards (ISO14000 environmental management series standards). The qualified ones will be issued with an environmental management system certification by a third-party agency, and registered and announced to prove that the supplier has the environmental assurance ability to provide products or services in accordance with the established environmental protection standards and regulations. Through environmental management system certification, it can be confirmed whether the raw materials, production processes, processing methods used by the manufacturer, and the use and post-use disposal of the products meet the requirements of environmental protection standards and regulations.<\/p>\n Transport certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n UN38.3: UN38.3 refers to Part 3, Section 38.3 of the “United Nations Manual of Tests and Criteria for the Transport of Dangerous Goods” specially formulated by the United Nations for the transportation of dangerous goods. That is, before the transportation of lithium batteries, they must pass high-altitude simulation, high and low temperature cycles, vibration tests, impact tests, 55\u00b0C external short circuits, impact tests, overcharge tests, and forced discharge tests to ensure the safety of lithium battery transportation. If the lithium battery is not installed with the equipment, and each package contains more than 24 battery cells or 12 batteries, it must also pass a 1.2-meter free fall test.<\/p>\n MSDS: MSDS is a comprehensive legal document on the characteristics of chemicals provided to customers by chemical production or sales companies in accordance with legal requirements. It provides sixteen items such as the physical and chemical parameters of chemicals, flammability and explosion performance, health hazards, safe use and storage, leakage disposal, first aid measures, and relevant laws and regulations. MSDS can be compiled by the manufacturer in accordance with relevant rules. However, in order to ensure the accuracy and standardization of the report, you can apply to a professional organization for compilation.<\/p>\n EU Certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n CE Certification: It is limited to the basic safety requirements that the product does not endanger the safety of humans, animals and goods, rather than general quality requirements. The coordination directive only stipulates the main requirements, and the general directive requirements are standard tasks. Therefore, the accurate meaning is: the CE mark is a safety certification mark rather than a quality certification mark. It is the “main requirement” that constitutes the core of the European directive. The “CE” mark is a safety certification mark and is regarded as a passport for manufacturers to open and enter the European market.<\/p>\n In the EU market, the “CE” mark is a mandatory certification mark. Whether it is a product produced by an enterprise within the EU or a product produced in other countries, if it wants to circulate freely in the EU market, it must be affixed with the “CE” mark to indicate that the product meets the basic requirements of the EU’s “New Approach to Technical Harmonization and Standardization” directive. This is a mandatory requirement for products imposed by EU law.<\/p>\n RoHS certification: RoHS is a mandatory standard established by EU legislation. Its full name is “Restriction of Hazardous Substances”. This standard has been officially implemented on July 1, 2006. It is mainly used to regulate the materials and process standards of electronic and electrical products to make them more conducive to human health and environmental protection. The purpose of this standard is to eliminate a total of 6 substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers, in electrical and electronic products, and focuses on stipulating that the cadmium content cannot exceed 0.01%.<\/p>\n US certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n FCC certification: It is a standard certification established by more than 50 states, Columbia and the United States to ensure the safety of radio and wired communication products related to life and property. The FCC’s Office of Engineering and Technology is responsible for the technical support of the committee and is also responsible for equipment approval. Many radio application products, communication products and digital products require FCC approval to enter the US market. The FCC committee investigates and studies each stage of product safety to find the best way to solve the problem. At the same time, the FCC also includes the inspection of radio devices, aircraft, etc.<\/p>\n UL certification: UL certification is a non-mandatory certification in the United States. It is mainly for the inspection and certification of product safety performance. Its certification scope does not include the EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) characteristics of the product. It is mainly engaged in product safety certification and business safety certification business. Its ultimate goal is to provide the market with goods with a considerable safety level and contribute to the guarantee of personal health and property safety. As an effective means of eliminating technical barriers to international trade, UL also plays an active role in promoting the development of international trade.<\/p>\n Japan Certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n PSE certification: PSE certification is a mandatory safety certification in Japan, which is used to prove that electrical and electronic products have passed the safety standard test of Japan’s Electrical and Material Safety Law (DENAN Law) or international IEC standards. Japan’s DENTORL Law (Electrical Devices and Materials Control Law) stipulates that 498 products must pass safety certification to enter the Japanese market. Among them, 165 Class A products should obtain the diamond-shaped PSE mark, and 333 Class B products should obtain the circular PSE mark.<\/p>\n Korean Certification<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n KC Certification: In order to enable consumers to more clearly understand the certification marks marked on the products they purchase and reduce the various certification fees borne by product manufacturers, the Korea Institute of Technology and Standards (KATS) announced on August 20, 2008 that it will implement a new certification system KC) certification on January 1, 2009.<\/p>\n Follow NOORI to learn more about batteries.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In order to control the battery safety risks, different countries and organizations have gradually increased the series of battery certifications.
