Safety Tests for Battery Transport Boxes: We Offer Top-Level Fire Testing!

Trust in Precise Tests for Maximum Transport Safety

As a leading testing laboratory for battery safety testing, we now offer targeted fire tests for manufacturers of battery transport boxes to verify the safety of their transport boxes. In our specialized bunker, designed for highly hazardous tests and equipped with precise data loggers, we conduct realistic fire and explosion tests. These tests are carried out on transport boxes that can contain smaller batteries in accordance with ADR packaging regulation P911, or larger batteries (from 400 kg) according to LP9036.

Our strengths in the testing process

  • Realistic load scenarios
    We bring batteries in the transport boxes to targeted propagation, for example through overcharging, heating, or other hazardous influences like nail penetration.
  • Generous test volume
    We test transport boxes with an interior volume of up to 3 cubic meters, allowing us to accommodate various battery types and sizes.
  • Adapting criteria to the later use
    We assist you in determining the appropriate requirements for the batteries to be tested in your transport box, considering the future use and transport conditions of the box.
  • Provision of initiating battery possible
    If you do not have your own batteries for the tests on your transport box, we can provide a battery of the required size, chemistry, and power.

Why our tests are important for you

  • Required tests according to BAM guidelines
    As a laboratory accredited according to DIN EN ISO 17025, we can conduct the tests required by BAM (Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing) in accordance with BAM-GGR024 Appendix 2. This is a prerequisite for the approval of the box for transport use under the Special Regulation 376 ADR.
  • Controlled conditions
    All tests are carried out in our specially designed bunker, which meets the highest safety standards. Gas formation and potentially explosive reactions are effectively controlled by our exhaust system.
  • Proof through a test report
    After successful fire testing, we will provide you with the necessary documentation required for the approval of your transport box by BAM.
