Overview
The RS-6010C battery impact chamber is designed for free-fall impact testing of lithium-ion cells and small modules, simulating mechanical abuse during production, transportation and end-use. It verifies resistance to internal short circuit, deformation, fire and explosion, ensuring compliance with global safety standards.
Built with a fully enclosed protective structure and remote operation, the unit ensures operator safety while delivering repeatable, accurate and traceable test results for quality control, R&D and certification. Its robust construction and precise control make it suitable for various battery testing scenarios, providing reliable data support for product compliance and performance optimization.

FAQ
Q: Does this chamber meet the exact requirements for UL 1642 impact testing?
A: Yes. The 9.1kg weight, 15.8mm crossbar, and free-fall vertical alignment are all designed to meet UL 1642’s specifications. We also offer a 10kg optional weight for labs working with updated regional variations of the standard.
Q: Can we use this for large EV modules, or only small cells?
A: The standard model supports cells up to 350×350×300mm, but we offer custom chamber sizing for larger prismatic or pouch modules up to 500×500×400mm, tailored to EV OEM test requirements.
Q: How does this compare to cheaper impact testers on the market?
A: The biggest difference is precision and safety. Generic testers often suffer from skewed drops that deliver inconsistent data, and many lack pressure relief vents or interlock doors. The RS-6010C is built to eliminate these issues, with a focus on long-term reliability even after hundreds of tests.
Q: Is the test data exportable for compliance reporting?
A: Yes. The chamber automatically logs all test parameters (height, weight, timestamp) and supports USB export, making it easy to generate audit-ready compliance reports for certification or internal quality control.
Q: Does the remote control support real-time test monitoring?
A: Yes. The 10m wired remote control allows operators to initiate tests and monitor the process in real time via the touchscreen, without needing to be near the chamber—critical for safety when testing high-energy lithium cells.
