Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Secondary lithium, nickel cadmium and nickel-metal hydride cells and batteries for portable applications - Guidance on environmental aspects

This document provides requirements and recommendations on environmental aspects of secondary lithium, nickel cadmium and nickel-metal hydride cells and batteries for portable applications (hereafter referred to as "relevant secondary cells and batteries"). Relevant secondary cells and batteries are specified within the scopes of IEC 61960-3, IEC 61960-4, IEC 61951-1, and IEC 61951-2. NOTE Portable applications are defined in IEC 61960-3 as comprising hand-held equipment, transportable equipment, and movable equipment. See IEC 61960-3 for examples. This document is not intended to be applied to batteries embedded in end-use products. Once the embedded battery is removed from an end-use product, this document becomes applicable to it. The safety and control circuits as well as cases associated with relevant secondary batteries, except for those forming part of an end-use product, are covered by this document as parts of the relevant secondary batteries.

Accumulateurs alcalins et autres accumulateurs à électrolyte non acide - Accumulateurs et batteries d'accumulateurs lithium, nickel-cadmium et nickel-métal hydrure pour applications portables - Recommandations relatives aux aspects environnementaux

IEC 63218:2021 fournit des exigences et des recommandations sur les aspects environnementaux des accumulateurs et batteries d'accumulateurs lithium, nickel-cadmium et nickel-métal hydrure pour applications portables (ci-après dénommés "accumulateurs et batteries d'accumulateurs concernés"). Les accumulateurs et batteries d'accumulateurs concernés sont spécifiés dans les domaines d'application des normes IEC 61960-3, IEC 61960-4, IEC 61951-1 et IEC 61951-2. NOTE Les applications portables sont définies comme suit dans l’IEC 61960-3: les applications portables comprennent l'équipement portatif, l'équipement transportable et l'équipement mobile. Voir l’IEC 61960-3 pour des exemples. Le présent document n'est pas destiné à être appliqué aux batteries intégrées dans les produits d'utilisation finale. Dès lors que la batterie intégrée est retirée d'un produit d'utilisation finale, le présent document lui devient applicable. Les circuits de sécurité et de commande ainsi que les boîtiers associés aux batteries d’accumulateurs concernées, à l’exception de ceux faisant partie d'un produit d'utilisation finale, sont couverts par le présent document en tant que parties des batteries d’accumulateurs concernées.
