4:00 MODULE 1:
Battery Characteristics
This session introduces a historical prospective of
batteries, detailed battery definitions and features
(electrical, mechanical, standards, etc.). Module 1 lays
the foundation for the attendants to share a common
“battery language” and provides all the background
needed for upcoming modules.
5:00 MODULE 2:
Primary Cells & Batteries
This session reviews and compares primary battery
chemistries (Alkaline Manganese Dioxide, Zinc Carbon,
Zinc Chloride, Silver Zinc, Nickel Oxyhydroxide, Lithium
Iron Disulfide, Lithium Iodine, Lithium Manganese
Dioxide, Lithium Carbon Monofluride, Lithium Sulfur
Dioxide, Lithium Thionyl Chloride, Lithium Sulfuryl
Chloride, Lithium Bromine Chloride and High Power
Organic Lithium).
6:00 Refreshment Break
6:30 MODULE 3:
Rechargeable Cells & Batteries
This session reviews and compares rechargeable
batteries chemistries (Nickel Cadmium, Nickel Metal
Hydride, Rechargeable Alkaline, Lithium Ion and
Lithium Polymer).
4:00 MODULE 4:
Battery Chargers
This session reviews battery chargers, charging
techniques per battery chemistry, charging problems
and solutions, personal chargers, industrial chargers
and charger types by charging time.
5:00 MODULE 5:
Battery Design Process
This session introduces battery design processes (cell
and raw materials selection, cell level testing, battery
design documents, battery electrical, mechanical and
safety design and final verification tests (electrical,
mechanical, safety).
6:00 MODULE 6:
Battery Safety
This session introduces the safety risks along the
battery cycle life and provides safety guidelines for
safety event elimination. Module 8 also addresses the
procedures involved in handling safety events, including
first aid.
