IEC 62133-2: All you need to know about the new safety standard

The IEC 62133 is an important safety standard for Li-Ion-batteries used in medical devices, IT devices, tools, laboratory, household and consumer goods. In February 2017 the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) published an updated version of the safety standard which will replace IEC62133:2012 by March 14th 2020. 

The updated safety standard will be split in two new safety standards:

IEC62133-1:2017 [Part 1: Nickel Systems]

IEC62133-2:2017 [Part 2: Li-Ion Systems]

 

IEC62133-2:2017 includes new recommendations concerning the assembly of cells in battery packs, an updated index, mechanical vibration and shock tests similar to UN38.3 transport test.

IEC62133-2:2017 has already been implemented at RRC, the leading company for power supplies, batteries and battery charging technology.

RRC has partnered with Alexander Schneider to bring innovative power solutions to the Israeli market and put our customers a step ahead of the competition.
