APS Labs is unique in its ability to optically observe and measure cell-level thermal runaway events.
Instrumented enclosures and fixturing apparatuses are available for cell-level thermal runaway events, including the following diagnostics:
▪High-speed Schlieren/Shadowgraph photography
▪FTIR VOC and reducing gases identification
▪FLIR thermal imaging
▪CCTV/point-and-shoot video
▪Cell surface and ambient thermocouples
▪Pre and post burn mass analysis
▪Automated data acquisition and logging
