Re: [PSES] EN 62368-1 - device include batteries (LiPo)

Amund,

You should also consider any UN 38.3 transportation requirements that may
apply.  For example, if you plan to ship an appliance with removable
batteries in place, they should not be electrically connected during
shipment, and if permanently soldered into place the power switch cannot be
inadvertently enabled from bumping or jostling.

[PSES] EN 62368-1 - device include batteries (LiPo)

[Amund Westin]

Some thoughts .

Device with a metallic enclosure, covering the batteries, will reduce the
concern for -issues, as long as there are no significant
large holes in the enclosures.

PCB and other components close to the battery compartment, are V-0 flame
class, and no possible path for potential spread for internal fire.

 

Are the other aspects that should be kept in mind, when we are planning the
needed space (volume) for the battery inside the device. Usually, an energy
source should have some distances to the surrounds, but here the battery is
placed in a metallic cover.
