View details →Battery Safety Test Equipment
Short circuit testers, thermal abuse chambers, crush and needle puncture machines — engineered to verify batteries under the world's toughest safety standards.
Safety Testing
Test to the Standard. Survive the Unexpected.
The VT-SAFE series recreates the worst-case conditions a battery can face — external short circuit, thermal runaway, mechanical crush and nail penetration — inside a containment chamber engineered to protect operators and equipment.
- ✓ Short circuit testers: up to 10,000 A with < 5 mΩ circuit resistance
- ✓ Thermal abuse chambers: -40 °C to +200 °C with rapid ramp control
- ✓ Crush testers: up to 20 T force with real-time force/displacement curves
- ✓ Needle puncture machines: precision speed and depth control
- ✓ Explosion-proof, vented enclosures with fire suppression options
