PAT-Core

 

Release 1.0

 

4  PAT-Core assembly 

This section describes how the PAT-Core in combination with the compatible test cells has to 
be assembled in order to conduct proper battery tests.  

Note:

 The assembly has to take place under the protective atmosphere in a glove box .  

4.1  Safety precautions 

Use proper safety precautions when using hazardous electrode materials and electrolytes. 
Wear protective glasses and gloves to protect you against electrolyte that may accidentally 
spill out during disassembly. Upon cell disassembly, dispose all materials properly. Metallic 
lithium and some insertion compounds may decompose heavily in contact with water and 
other solvents, and can cause fire.
