Hot Cell® Sensors for Cylindrical Batteries
Testing Cp of cylindrical cells
These three Hot Cell® sensors are primarily intended for testing cylindrical batteries. They have cell volumes that are matched to standardized cylindrical battery geometries. The cells are made of aluminium and have the shape of a tall cylinder. The three cell sizes have a width and height of 15 mm and 70 mm; 30 mm and 75 mm; and 50 mm and 85 mm, respectively. To improve the thermal contact of the cylindrical battery to the aluminium cell, we recommend the use of silicone oil.
The Hot Cell® sensors come with high-temperature foam insulation and two cable options – a standard grey-colored polymer-clad cable for use between -20°C to 50°C, or a red-colored silicone-clad cable for use between -60°C to 180°C. For the latter option, grey-colored adaptor cable is needed for connection to Hot Disk® instruments (or sensor switch units) and is offered separately.
- Option 1: Polymer cable cladding (-20°C to 50°C)
- Option 2: Silicone cable cladding (-60°C to 180°C)
