Testing Principle and Procedure: Step-by-Step Forced Internal Short Circuit Test Method

The Forced Internal Short Circuit (FISC) test simulates a small internal defect inside a battery cell to check how it reacts under stress. Here’s how we run the test step-by-step:

  1. Sample Preparation
    • Select the battery cell (prismatic, cylindrical, or pouch) based on your test plan.
    • Make sure the cell is properly charged or conditioned as required by the test standards (like IEC 62133-2 or JIS C 8714).
    • Mount the cell securely inside the tester’s chamber.
  2. Setup Test Parameters
    • Input the force level (up to 2000 N) according to the cell type and test protocol.
    • Set the ambient temperature inside the integrated chamber (0°C to 100°C, or any target range).
    • Configure measurement options to track voltage drop, temperature rise, and pressure in real time.
  3. Performing the Test
    • Gradually apply the force using the high-precision servo system until the internal short circuit is forced.
    • Monitor the cell’s response through the data acquisition system sampling up to 100 times per second.
    • Observe safety features kicking in, like over-pressure protection, and use the built-in exhaust system to prevent risk.
  4. Data Collection and Analysis
    • Record voltage behavior, temperature changes, and pressure data throughout the test.
    • Assess whether the cell passes or fails based on predefined criteria concerning safety and stability.
  5. Post-Test Procedure
    • Safely remove the cell from the test chamber using explosion-proof precautions.
    • Review detailed test logs via the PLC-controlled touch screen interface.
    • Use data for compliance reports, quality control, or R&D validation.

By following this method, we make sure every battery cell withstands forced internal short circuits safely and reliably, protecting lives and devices across industries.

Testing Principle and Procedure: Sample Preparation and Pass/Fail Criteria

Before starting a forced internal short circuit test, proper sample preparation is key. We make sure each lithium-ion cell—whether prismatic or cylindrical—is conditioned to the right state, typically fully charged or as specified by your testing protocol. Cells should be inspected for any visible damage or manufacturing defects that could affect results.

During the test, the Battery Forced Internal Short Circuit Tester applies a controlled force to simulate an internal short. Real-time data on voltage drop, temperature, and pressure help track the cell’s response. Pass or fail criteria are based on standards like IEC 62133-2 and JIS C 8714, which specify limits for voltage collapse, temperature rise, and whether the cell maintains integrity without catastrophic failure.

Key points for sample prep and evaluation:

  • Verify cell charge state matches test requirements
  • Inspect for surface defects or leaks before testing
  • Use proper fixture setup for cell size and type
  • Monitor critical parameters (voltage, temp, pressure) during testing
  • Compare results against standard pass/fail thresholds
  • Document any abnormal reactions, like swelling, venting, or thermal runaway

Following this clear sample prep and evaluation procedure helps you trust the test results and ensures compliance with recognized battery safety standards.

1. Q: What is a Battery Forced Internal Short Circuit (FISC) Tester?
A: A Battery Forced Internal Short Circuit Tester is a specialized safety testing machine designed to intentionally induce and simulate an internal short circuit within a lithium-ion battery cell. It applies precise mechanical force to replicate failure modes like separator breakdown or dendrite penetration, allowing manufacturers to evaluate the cell’s safety response, thermal behavior, and risk of thermal runaway under controlled laboratory conditions.

2. Q: What is the key difference between an internal and an external short circuit test?
A: The key difference lies in the failure location and test objective. An internal short circuit test (FISC) simulates a fault inside the cell (e.g., separator failure) to assess core safety and the risk of thermal runaway. An external short circuit test connects the cell’s external terminals to evaluate the battery management system and external protection circuits. FISC testing is considered a more severe and fundamental safety validation.

3. Q: What safety standards require Forced Internal Short Circuit (FISC) testing?
A: Key international safety standards mandating or recommending FISC testing include IEC 62133-2 (Clause 8.3.9 for portable cells), JIS C 8714:2007, and UL 1973 for stationary storage. It is also a critical evaluation method within IEC 62660-3 for automotive batteries and supports validation for UN 38.3 transportation safety requirements.

4. Q: How does a FISC Tester apply force to create an internal short?
A: A high-quality FISC Tester uses a high-precision servo motor system to apply a controlled, gradual force (typically up to 2000 N) via a probe or indenter onto the battery cell. This force deforms the internal layers (anode, separator, cathode) until they contact, creating a controlled internal short circuit, while monitoring parameters like force, displacement, voltage, and temperature in real-time.

5. Q: Why is an integrated temperature chamber important for FISC testing?
A: Battery safety performance is highly temperature-dependent. An integrated temperature chamber (e.g., range from 0°C to 100°C) allows testing under various environmental conditions. This is crucial to evaluate if a cell is more susceptible to thermal runaway when an internal short occurs at high or low temperatures, providing more comprehensive safety data.

6. Q: What critical data is monitored during a FISC test?
A: During a test, the equipment monitors voltage drop (to detect the short), cell surface and internal temperature (to track heat generation and thermal runaway onset), and applied force/displacement. Advanced systems sample this data at high speeds (e.g., 100 samples/sec) to capture the rapid sequence of failure events accurately.

7. Q: What are the essential safety features of the tester itself?
A: Given the hazardous nature of the test, the tester must have explosion-proof construction, a sealed safety chamber with a viewing window, an automatic fire suppression system (e.g., CO2), harmful gas exhaust vents, and emergency stop buttons. These features protect operators and equipment from potential cell rupture or fire.

8. Q: Which battery cell formats can be tested?
A: A versatile FISC Tester can accommodate prismatic, cylindrical, and pouch cells. This is achieved through customizable fixtures and mandrels that securely hold each cell type in place during the force application, ensuring consistent and reliable test conditions across different product lines.

9. Q: How is the Pass/Fail result determined in a FISC test?
A: Pass/Fail criteria are defined by the relevant safety standard (like IEC 62133-2). Generally, a “pass” requires that the cell does not explode or catch fire. Additional criteria often include limits on maximum temperature rise, duration of flame (if any), and that no projectiles are ejected. The tester’s data logging provides the evidence for this assessment.

10. Q: Who uses this equipment and in what phase of production?
A: FISC Testers are used by battery cell manufacturersEV and ESS integrators, and independent testing labs. They are primarily used in the R&D phase for material and design validation, and for qualification and certification testing. Due to its destructive nature, it is typically not used on every cell in mass production but on a sampling basis for quality assurance.
