Four Popular EV Battery Vibration Testing Profiles
Lithium-ion batteries are the most common battery type used for electric vehicles. During their lifespan, these batteries undergo various vibrations and temperature changes. Several test standards have been developed to simulate long-term environmental effects on these batteries across different size levels (cell, module, pack).
SAE J2380
The SAE J2380 standard vibration profiles simulate the effect of driving 100,000 miles on battery packs and modules. The standard requires a series of random vibration profiles applied across all three perpendicular axes for time periods ranging from 9 minutes to 38 hours each.
SAE J2464
The SAE J2464 standard evaluates abuse tolerance for cells and battery packs, measuring response for any RESS (rechargeable energy storage system). These abuse scenarios are contrary to the battery's design intent but may occur during field use.
There are 2 specified test types: thermal shock cycling and shock vibration test. The thermal shock cycling consists of 5 cycles through hot and cold temperatures (70°C to -40°C). The shock vibration test applies 3 positive and 3 negative direction half-sine shocks in each of the three perpendicular axes.
IEC 62660-2
The IEC 62660-2 standard specifies reliability and abuse testing for electric vehicle lithium-ion cells. The vibration test requires random vibration for 8 hours on each plane of the cell, plus a mechanical shock test (half-sine) in all six spatial directions.
UN 38.3
The UN Manual of Tests and Criteria provides test procedures for transporting dangerous goods, with section 38.3 discussing lithium ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries must pass these tests before transport clearance.
There are 3 specified test types: thermal, vibration, and shock. The thermal test consists of 10 cycles through hot and cold temperatures (72°C to -40°C), followed by 24-hour storage at ambient temperature (20°C). The vibration test simulates transport vibrations with a swept sine test over 3 hours for each mounting position.
