According to Global Times, the Gyeonggi do Fire Disaster Headquarters in South Korea reported on the 24th that as of 17:55 local time on the 24th, the death toll from the fire at the Huacheng Battery Factory in Gyeonggi do has risen to 22. According to the latest report from the South Korean side, 19 Chinese citizens were killed in the incident, and personnel from the Chinese Embassy in South Korea have rushed to the scene in Huacheng to further verify the situation.
According to reports, the fire occurred at a lithium battery manufacturing plant called ARICELL in West Shin myeon, Huacheng City, Gyeonggi Province. According to the data, the factory is a three story building with reinforced concrete structure. There are a total of 11 buildings in the factory area, covering an area of over 2300 square meters. The fire occurred on the second floor of the third building. At that time, there were a total of 67 employees working in the third building, with 15 people on the first floor and 52 people on the second floor, respectively. It is understood that the building houses over 35000 finished lithium batteries.
It is reported that ARICELL is a manufacturer of lithium sulfite chloride batteries (which are high energy density batteries) and a leading enterprise in this field.
South Korea is a major producer of lithium batteries, which are used in many products ranging from electric vehicles to laptops. If lithium batteries are damaged or overheated, there is a risk of explosion.
The development of batteries has led to significant progress in multiple fields, driving everything from handheld devices and electric vehicles to renewable energy storage systems.
However, as the demand for batteries with higher energy density and longer lifespan continues to grow, the complexity of their testing process also increases. So lithium battery testing equipment is particularly important!
The environmental testing of lithium batteries mainly stipulates safety experimental items related to the environment, such as low voltage, temperature cycling, vibration, accelerated impact, drop, stress relief, high temperature, etc.
Low voltage testing: testing the performance and safety of batteries in low voltage environments.
Temperature cycling test: Simulate the long-term use of batteries under different temperature conditions, evaluate their stability and reliability.
Vibration test: Test the anti vibration performance of the battery in a vibration environment to ensure that it does not malfunction under vibration conditions.

High temperature testing: Test the performance and safety of batteries in high temperature environments to ensure that they do not experience abnormalities under high temperature conditions.
Mechanical testing aims to simulate the safety testing of lithium batteries in situations such as collision, compression, and falling during user use or battery assembly. The general qualification criteria are that the battery has no obvious damage, no leakage, and no smoke or explosion.
Vibration test: Simulate the performance of the battery in a vibration environment to evaluate its vibration resistance and stability.
