IEC EN 60896-21 Fixed Lead-Acid Batteries - Part 21: Valve Regulated Types - Test Methods

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 60896-21 testing. This part of IEC EN 60896 applies to all fixed lead-acid cells and monoblock batteries of the valve regulated type for float charge applications (i.e. permanently connected to a load and a dc power source) in a static position (i.e. not generally intended).

IEC EN 60896-21 Fixed Lead-Acid Batteries - Part 21: Valve Regulated Types - Test Methods

The purpose of this section of IEC EN 60896 is to specify test methods for all types and construction of valve regulated fixed lead acid batteries and monoblock batteries used in backup power applications.

This part of IEC EN 60896 does not apply to lead-acid cells and monoblock batteries used for vehicle engine starting applications (IEC 60095 series), solar photovoltaic energy systems (IEC 61427) or general purpose applications (IEC 61056 series).

In this part of IEC EN 60896, the following characteristics are considered necessary to fully ensure the ability of a fixed valve sealed lead-acid battery to perform its function as a reliable backup power source.

This section of IEC EN 60896 is a summary of the test methods used to define specified properties. The application condition and related requirements of a test method are specified in IEC EN 60896-22 for each battery application. These features are grouped into functional safety, performance and longevity features.
