Battery EN62133 Certification

In March 2013, CENELEC, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization, officially released the EN 62133: 2013 version of the battery safety standard. This standard is mainly aimed at the safety requirements of single cells and batteries containing alkaline or non-acid electrolytes and portable sealed single cells and batteries. The new standard will replace the first edition of EN62133:2003 published in 2003. At the same time, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization also specified the expiration date of the old EN 62133 standard. China Recognition Testing reminds major battery manufacturers and battery product manufacturers to pay attention to import the new version of EN 62133:2013 as soon as possible, so as not to affect the export of battery products to Europe in the future.

Introduction to EN62133 Battery Certification

In March 2013, CENELEC, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization, officially released the EN 62133: 2013 version of the battery safety standard. This standard is mainly aimed at the safety requirements of single cells and batteries containing alkaline or non-acid electrolytes and portable sealed single cells and batteries. The new standard will replace the first edition of EN62133:2003 published in 2003. At the same time, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization also specified the expiration date of the old EN 62133 standard. China Recognition Testing reminds major battery manufacturers and battery product manufacturers to pay attention to import the new version of EN 62133:2013 as soon as possible, so as not to affect the export of battery products to Europe in the future.  

 Electrical products entering the EU (such as mobile phones, tablets, electric toys, power tools, etc.) need to meet the requirements of the EU New Approach Directive and affix the CE mark. As the accessories of many end products (such as mobile phones, electric toys, tablet computers, etc.), the safety of batteries needs to be considered in combination with these end products. Therefore, many end product customers require their parts and components to be the highest for the safety of their own products. Hao also affixes the CE mark so that its products can better meet the requirements of the relevant directives.

Therefore, if the battery products of export enterprises can meet the requirements of EN62133 standard and affix the CE mark, it will enhance the competitiveness of their products in the market and strive for a larger market for the enterprise.
