Battery EN62133 Certification
EN62133 Battery Certification Introduction
EN62133 Certification

In March 2013, CENELEC, the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization, officially released the battery safety standard EN 62133: 2013. This standard mainly targets 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 version of EN62133: 2003 released in 2003. At the same time, CENELEC also specified the expiration date of the old version of EN 62133 standard. According to the requirements, EN 62133: 2003 will be officially revoked on January 10, 2016. Micro Test reminds major battery manufacturers and battery product manufacturers to pay attention to the introduction of the new version of EN 62133: 2013 as soon as possible to avoid affecting the export of battery products to Europe in the future.

Electrical products entering the EU (such as mobile phones, tablets, electric toys, electric tools, etc.) need to meet the requirements of the EU new method directive and affix the CE mark. As an accessory of many terminal products (such as mobile phones, electric toys, tablets, etc.), the safety of batteries needs to be considered in combination with these terminal products. Therefore, many terminal product customers require that their components should also be affixed with the CE mark for the safety of their own products, so that their products can better meet the requirements of relevant directives.
Therefore, if the battery products of exporting companies can meet the requirements of the EN62133 standard and affix the CE mark, it will enhance the competitiveness of their products in the market and win a larger market for the company.
