Key Features and Safety Innovations

Our Dexiang Battery Fire Test Chamber is built tough with explosion-proof construction. The interior uses SUS304 stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance, while the exterior features anti-spark materials to prevent ignition risks during testing.

Safety is top priority with an advanced CO2 fire suppression system that automatically activates when smoke, hydrogen (H2), or carbon monoxide (CO) are detected. This rapid inerting helps control flames fast and safely.

Pressure relief vents and chain-locked doors protect the chamber from overpressure events, ensuring a secure testing environment every time.

For real-time insight, the chamber includes gas analyzers, thermal sensors, and video surveillance to monitor conditions closely throughout each test cycle.

We also offer customizable add-ons like inert gas purging and rapid cooling systems, designed to meet the strictest EUCAR Level 6 safety standards.

Here’s how Dexiang compares to generic battery fire test chambers:

With these features, the Dexiang chamber offers reliable, repeatable testing for lithium ion flammability and thermal runaway, keeping your safety standard high and risks low.
