Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Safety requirements for portable sealed secondary cells, and for batteries made from them, for use in portable applications - Part 2: Lithium systems (IEC 62133-2:2017); German version EN 62133-2:2017
Sekundärzellen und -batterien mit alkalischen oder anderen nichtsäurehaltigen Elektrolyten - Sicherheitsanforderungen für tragbare gasdichte Sekundärzellen und daraus hergestellte Batterien für die Verwendung in tragbaren Geräten - Teil 2: Lithium-Systeme (IEC 62133-2:2017); Deutsche Fassung EN 62133-2:2017
Overview
This third edition of the standard applies to the operation of gas-tight accumulators and batteries with alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes (except button cells) used in portable devices (for example, cell phones, laptops). It contains requirements and tests for safe operation. Compared to previous editions, the standard has been split into two parts. This Part 2 deals exclusively with batteries with a lithium-based electrochemical system. Specifications for nickel-based systems are included in Part 1. The responsible committee is DKE/K 371 "Akkumulatoren" ("Accumulators") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
