UL 1642

The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) evaluates lithium-ion batteries, ensuring that they adhere to UL 1642 standards.
What is UL 1642?

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) developed UL 1642 as a safety standard for non-rechargeable and rechargeable lithium batteries. The scope of the standard includes batteries single and multi-cell battery configurations, as well as batteries containing lithium, lithium ions, and lithium alloy. The standard evaluates a battery’s risk for fire and explosion, and UL 1642 certification highlights a battery’s ability to resist the abuses associated with its application.

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Ability to withstand impact damage and similar stresses
  • Gas generation
  • Thermal stability
Upon completion of our UL 1642 services, our clients receive a certification that recognizes their products compliance with UL 1642 guidelines. However, if a battery fails to meet the criteria, we offer services that can assist clients as they make improvements to their products design and performance.
Why is it Important to Evaluate Lithium Ion Batteries?
Lithium ion batteries are commonly used in consumer and commercial products. Despite their popularity and efficiency, lithium ion batteries can pose serious risks to people and property if they aren’t thoroughly evaluated and tested. Our UL 1642 certification services help our clients confirm the reliability and safety of batteries, while helping to increase consumer confidence in the product.
