Safe Battery Test Chambers
for Testing Lithium-Ion Cells, Modules, and Systems
Our innovative battery test chambers are specifically designed for testing lithium-ion cells and modules. Battery tests are complex and require the highest safety standards to minimize potential hazards.
Handling lithium-ion batteries involves various risks, ranging from overheating to chemical reactions. Therefore, it is crucial for test facility operators to carefully assess these risks and implement a well-thought-out safety concept. With BINDER by your side, you are well-equipped to meet these challenges.
Discover how our solutions can help you test safely while ensuring compliance with all relevant regulations.

Our Product Solutions for reliable test environments
Safe classification and handling of energy storage devices is a key factor in conducting reliable battery tests. The basis for this is the EUCAR Hazard Level – a scale developed by the European Council for Automotive R&D for the systematic assessment of potential battery hazards. Naturally, our test environments meet all relevant industry standards such as DIN EN IEC and ISO.
Based on these hazard levels, BINDER has developed modular safety packages, designed for EUCAR Levels 0 to 6, which integrate seamlessly into BINDER temperature and climate chambers. Combinations with various models and sizes are possible. We also implement custom project-based solutions – for maximum safety and reliability in every test.
