Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Secondary lithium cells and batteries for portable applications

This International Standard specifies performance tests, designations, markings, dimensions and other requirements for secondary lithium single cells and batteries for portable applications. The objective of this standard is to provide the purchasers and users of secondary lithium cells and batteries with a set of criteria with which they can judge the performance of secondary lithium cells and batteries offered by various manufacturers.

Akkumulatoren und Batterien mit alkalischem oder anderen nichtsäurehaltigen Elektrolyten - Lithium-Akkumulatoren und -batterien für tragbare Geräte

Accumulateurs alcalins et autres accumulateurs à électrolyte non acide - Eléments et batteries d'accumulateurs au lithium pour applications portables

La présente Norme internationale spécifie les essais de performance, les désignations, les marquages, les dimensions et autres exigences pour les éléments individuels et les batteries d'accumulateurs au lithium pour applications portables. L'objectif de la présente norme est de fournir aux acheteurs et aux utilisateurs d'accu-mulateurs au lithium un ensemble de critères au moyen desquels ils seront en mesure de juger de la performance des différents accumulateurs au lithium proposés par différents fabricants.
