Product Detail

-40℃ to +130℃ Temperature Humidity Test Chamber for Battery Cell Reliability Testing


Product Overview and Ideal Applications

A temperature and humidity test chamber subjects products to precisely controlled climatic conditions to verify their performance, safety, and durability under stress. The TOB‑TH‑80C is a benchtop‑to‑floor‑standing 80‑litre environmental chamber purpose‑built for battery cell testing. It spans a temperature range of –40 °C to +130 °C and a humidity range of 20 % to 98 % RH, enabling the simulation of extreme cold, dry heat, and cyclic damp heat environments that lithium‑ion cells encounter during transport, storage, and operation.

What distinguishes this chamber from a generic climatic test cabinet is the suite of battery‑specific safety features. A smoke vent, two explosion‑proof chains on the chamber door, and a tri‑colour alarm light are integrated to mitigate the risks posed by failing cells. A mechanical pressure‑balance port prevents excessive pressure differentials during high‑humidity runs. The interior is constructed from SUS 304 stainless steel, and the 100 mm‑thick fire‑retardant polyurethane insulation ensures thermal stability and low energy consumption. The control system uses an American PT100 wet‑dry bulb sensor to deliver ±0.5 °C temperature stability and ±2 % RH humidity stability, meeting the repeatability requirements of IEC 60068‑2‑1, 60068‑2‑2, and 60068‑2‑30.


Ideal for:

  • Battery manufacturers and testing laboratories performing high/low temperature exposure, temperature cycling, and damp heat tests on lithium‑ion, sodium‑ion, and solid‑state cells.
  • R&D teams evaluating new cell chemistries for thermal runaway behaviour, SEI degradation, and capacity fade under controlled environmental stress.
  • Quality assurance departments that must comply with GB/T 2423 (IEC 60068) test standards for electronic products destined for global markets.
  • Any facility that needs to simulate the climatic journey of a cell from a cold winter warehouse to a tropical shipping container, all within a safe, monitored enclosure.


Temperature Humidity Test Chamber for Battery Cell Reliability Testing


Not sure which test profile (e.g., –20 °C to 60 °C cyclic, or 85 °C/85 % RH damp heat) best evaluates your cell’s weak points? Contact our application engineers with your cell type and target standard.


Where Environmental Testing Fits in Battery Development and Production

Environmental testing is positioned after cell assembly and formation, and before shipment or final qualification. A typical battery cell will undergo a sequence such as:

  • Formation and aging – Initial charge/discharge cycles to stabilise the SEI.
  • Performance screening – Capacity, internal resistance, and OCV checks.
  • Environmental stress tests – High/low temperature storage, temperature cycling, damp heat, thermal shock (using the TOB‑TH‑80C).
  • Safety and abuse tests – Overcharge, nail penetration, crush (in separate equipment).
  • Final inspection – Electrical and visual checks before the cell is shipped or built into a pack.
The TOB‑TH‑80C specifically addresses step 3. By subjecting cells to –40 °C cold‑soak and +130 °C dry‑heat, engineers can identify electrolyte freezing, lithium plating during low‑temperature charging, or accelerated SEI growth at high temperature. The damp heat test (e.g., 85 °C/85 % RH) is a standard accelerated aging protocol that reveals moisture‑induced degradation, such as HF generation in LiPF₆‑based electrolytes or corrosion of the aluminium current collector.

Because battery testing involves the risk of cell venting or fire, the TOB‑TH‑80C incorporates safety mechanisms that generic environmental chambers lack. The explosion‑proof door chains prevent the door from being blown open, the smoke vent channels any generated smoke out of the chamber, and the tri‑colour alarm provides immediate visual warning to personnel. These features enable the chamber to be operated in a standard battery laboratory without a separate blast‑proof enclosure, saving space and cost.


How the Temperature and Humidity Control System Works

The TOB‑TH‑80C uses a vapour‑compression refrigeration system combined with an electric heating and a barrel‑type humidification system to generate the required temperature and humidity conditions inside the 80‑litre workspace. A multi‑blade centrifugal blower circulates the conditioned air from the top to the bottom of the chamber through carefully designed ducting, ensuring a uniform distribution of temperature and humidity across the entire test volume.

 

Temperature control

A French‑brand (Tecumseh or equivalent) hermetic compressor, using R404A refrigerant, provides cooling. The compressor is air‑cooled and operates under the control of the chamber’s main controller, which modulates the refrigeration capacity via hot‑gas bypass or on/off cycling depending on the setpoint. Heating is provided by an exposed‑wire nickel‑chromium alloy heating tube, positioned in the air stream upstream of the fan. The controller uses a PID algorithm and feedback from an American PT100 wet‑bulb/dry‑bulb sensor pair to maintain the temperature within ±0.5 °C of the setpoint, even under fluctuating load conditions.

 

Humidity control

Humidification is achieved by a hot‑water barrel system, which generates steam that is injected into the air stream. This method offers faster response and better low‑humidity performance than traditional pan‑type humidifiers, and it minimises the build‑up of scale that can contaminate the chamber and test specimens. The humidifying tube is embedded and has an insulation resistance greater than 50 MΩ, with built‑in dry‑burn and explosion‑proof protection. Humidity is measured by the same wet‑bulb/dry‑bulb sensor, and the controller holds the relative humidity within ±2 % RH of the setpoint.

 

Air circulation and chamber construction

A Taiwan‑brand low‑pressure asynchronous motor drives a multi‑blade centrifugal fan that draws air from the treatment plenum and distributes it through the chamber in a “top‑to‑bottom” pattern. The inner chamber is fabricated from SUS 304 stainless steel, while the external shell is cold‑rolled steel with a durable painted finish. Between the two is a 100 mm layer of fire‑retardant high‑strength polyurethane foam insulation, which keeps the chamber surface cool to the touch and minimises heat exchange with the ambient environment.

 

Safety and monitoring

The chamber is monitored by an independent adjustable temperature protector (over‑temperature cutoff) and a specimen anti‑condensation circuit. A phase‑sequence protection relay prevents damage from incorrect mains wiring, and a no‑fuse protection switch guards against electrical overload. In the event of a cell failure, the smoke vent and explosion‑proof door chains contain the hazard, while the tri‑colour alarm light alerts laboratory staff.

Why battery testing groups invest in a purpose‑built chamber:

A generic chamber may reach the set temperature and humidity, but it lacks the mechanical and electronic safeguards that make it safe to test lithium‑ion cells for hours or days unattended. The TOB‑TH‑80C was designed with the real‑world failure modes of battery cells in mind, and each safety feature is there because a test engineer once experienced a cell venting in a standard chamber and wished for a better solution.
