What does it look like inside the Phi-TEC BTC ?

The new feature available on the Phi-TEC BTC allows you to watch the battery during a thermal / electrical safety testing, whilst charging and discharging.  Watch the video below (no sound):

Thermal Stability of Batteries

By Dr Jasbir Singh

HEL were invited to make a presentation on safety testing of batteries, using adiabatic calorimetry, at the meeting of the Thermal Methods Group (TMG) of the RSC, to be held 30/31 March in Harwell, England. 

The Abstract of the talk I plan to give entitled "Thermal Stability of Batteries"  is available via this link;  it is  focused on Phi-TEC Battery Testing Calorimeter (BTC), developed especially for small and large batteries alike, based on the principles of the “ARC” calorimeter produced by Dow Chemical, back in the 1980s. The Phi-TEC is already established as the bench mark replacement for the “ARC” and is used worldwide for chemical safety testing.
