Compact Test Station for Battery Cell Characterization

16 September 2013 - The FuelCon battery testing station Evalautor-B10 combines all features of impedance spectroscopy with the capacity of charge / discharge units in a compact, mobile system design. Thus, Evaluator-B10 provides researcher with all advantages of impedance measurements for characterizing battery cells, like for example analysis of electrochemical process, optimization of material development or determination of ageing effects.

And in addition, the test station allows battery charging and discharging as well as 0-volt testing which enhances the range of applications compared to pure impedance analysis.

With its extremely compact design including running castors, the Evaluator-B10 is mobile and can be flexibly positioned. This is especially beneficial for testing laboratories with limited space. The power connection is realized via a 230 V European standard Schuko type plug. A PTFE work surface on the top of the housing assures increased safety.

The test system is completed by FuelCon´s intuitively operated software TestWork that ensures automated testing of battery cells as well as easy visualization of Bode and Nyquist diagrams on the basis of real-time data.

During the upcoming international event "World of Energy Solutions” where the “f-cell” and “battery+storage” exhibitions are consolidated, FuelCon will present its advanced testing systems for batteries and fuel cells from September 30th to October 2nd in Stuttgart (Germany).
