4 FAQs about Anti-vibration measures for battery cabinets

What are the advantages of a battery system?

This concept allows effective passive and active thermal management, vibration and crash-proof housing and fixation of the battery cells / modules, fire protection in all directions, EMC safety, environmental protection, lightweight construction – which means resource saving and weight-optimization in one functional unit.

How thick is the battery housing?

The battery housing (B: HOUSE®) has an approx. 15 mm thick GVI® insulation - open on one side. The insulating effect is sufficient to keep the battery pack at operating temperature for more than 12 hours without additional heating! (ambient temperature minus 20 °C; starting temperature of the battery 25 °C; temperature after 12 h 20 °C).

What is the wall thickness of a fully enclosed battery?

Depending on the required thermal properties, the total wall thickness is between 5 mm and 15 mm. One possible design variant of a fully enclosed battery is shown in Figure 7. With the concept of a multifunctional battery housing - B: HOUSE® - a wide variety of basic requirements can be fulfilled within one single unit.

How much does a battery weigh?

In the largest version, the housing has approximately the following internal dimensions: approx. 700 x 600 x 1800 mm. The total wall thickness is about 18 mm - of which twice sheet thickness 0.8 mm. This housing weighs about 75 kg empty; the battery weighs about 1000 kg in this case.
