ATEX Batteries

There are several different technical design options available to ensure battery packs comply with the ATEX directive, including explosion-proof enclosures, specific protection devices and encapsulation. This includes the pre-certification standard of "Intrinsically Safe" (IS) components such as batteries that do not produce sparks and should not release electrical or thermal energy that could caused any sort of reaction, even when the component is abused (for example short circuited).

Rechargeable Li-ion, NiCd, and lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl2) are examples of IS batteries. The design of the ATEX battery or IS battery pack is very important and many factors must be considered in addition to environmental conditions, such as life cycle, performance and weight.

For long life, Li-ion ATEX batteries offer unrivalled nominal capacities, the most innovative feature is the ability to be charged and discharged over a wide temperature range, especially at low temperatures. 

The necessity for IS batteries is clear and PMBL have the experience to meet the demands of high-risk applications.
