(Main)Safety requirements for secondary batteries and battery installations - Part 1: General safety information
Safety requirements for secondary batteries and battery installations - Part 1: General safety information
IEC 62485-1:2015 specifies the basic requirements for secondary batteries and battery installations. The requirements regarding safety, reliability, life expectancy, mechanical strength, cycle stability, internal resistance, and battery temperature, are determined by various applications, and this, in turn, determines the selection of the battery design and technology. In general, the requirements and definitions are specified for lead-acid and nickel-cadmium batteries. For other battery systems with aqueous electrolyte, the requirements may be applied accordingly. The standard covers safety aspects taking into account hazards associated with: - electricity (installation, charging, discharging, etc.); - electrolyte; - inflammable gas mixtures; - storage and transportation.
Sicherheitsanforderungen an Sekundär-Batterien und Batterieanlagen – Teil 1: Allgemeine Sicherheitsinformationen
Exigences de sécurité pour les batteries d'accumulateurs et les installations de batteries - Partie 1: Informations générales de sécurité
L'IEC 62485-1:2015 spécifie les exigences fondamentales des batteries d'accumulateurs et des installations de batteries. Les exigences relatives à la sécurité, la fiabilité, l'espérance de vie, la résistance mécanique, la stabilité du cyclage, la résistance interne et la température de batterie sont déterminées par diverses applications, et celles-ci à leur tour déterminent le choix de la conception et de la technologie des batteries. En général, les exigences et les définitions sont spécifiées pour des batteries au plomb et au nickel-cadmium. Pour d'autres systèmes de batterie à électrolyte aqueux, les exigences peuvent être appliquées en conséquence. La norme couvre les aspects liés à la sécurité prenant en compte les dangers associés aux éléments suivants: - l'électricité (installation, charge, décharge, etc.); - l'électrolyte; - les mélanges de gaz inflammables; - le stockage et le transport.
Varnostne zahteve za sekundarne baterije in baterijske naprave - 1. del: Splošne varnostne informacije
Ta del standarda IEC 62485 določa osnovne zahteve za sekundarne baterije in baterijske naprave.
Zahteve v zvezi z varnostjo, zanesljivostjo, pričakovano življenjsko dobo, mehansko trdnostjo, stabilnostjo cikla, notranjo upornostjo in temperaturo baterije so določene na podlagi različnih vrst uporabe, ki določajo izbiro zasnove in tehnologije za baterijo.
Zahteve in opredelitve so v splošnem določene za svinčeno-kislinske ter nikelj-kadmijeve baterije. Za druge baterijske sisteme z vodnim elektrolitom se lahko uporabljajo ustrezne zahteve.
Ta standard obravnava varnostne vidike, ki upoštevajo nevarnosti, povezane s/z:
– električno energijo (inštalacija, polnjenje, praznjenje itd.);
– elektrolitom;
– vnetljivimi plinskimi zmesmi;
– skladiščenjem in transportom.
Glede električne varnosti je omenjen standard IEC 60364-4-41.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation
