This document specifies requirements and tests for the safe operation of secondary lithium cells
and batteries used in industrial applications, including stationary applications.
When there exists an IEC International Standard specifying test conditions and requirements
for cells used in special applications and which is in conflict with this document, the former
takes precedence (e.g., IEC 62660 series on road vehicles).
The following are some examples of applications that utilize cells and batteries under the scope
of this document:
• Stationary applications: telecom, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), electrical energy
storage system, utility switching, emergency power, and similar applications.
• Motive applications: forklift truck, golf cart, automated guided vehicle (AGV), railway
vehicles, and marine vehicles, with the exception of road vehicles.
Since this document covers batteries for various industrial applications, it includes those
requirements which are common and minimum to the various applications.
Electrical safety is included only as a part of the risk analysis of Clause 8. In regard to details
for addressing electrical safety, the end use application standard requirements need to be
considered.
This document applies to cells and batteries. If the battery is divided into smaller units, the
smaller unit can be tested as the representative of the battery. The manufacturer clearly
declares the tested unit. The manufacturer can add functions, which are present in the final
battery to the tested unit.
This document addresses first life cells and batteries. Reuse, repurpose, second life use or
similar are not taken into consideration by this document.

This document specifies methods for the clear identification of secondary cells, batteries, battery modules and monoblocs according to their chemistry (electrochemical storage technology). The markings described in this document are applicable for secondary cells, batteries, battery modules and monoblocs with a volume of more than 900 cm3. The marking of the chemistry is useful for the installation, operation and decommissioning phases of battery life. Many recycling processes are chemistry specific, thus undesired events can occur when a battery which is not of the appropriate chemistry enters a given recycling process. In order to ensure safe handling during sorting and recycling processes, therefore, the battery is marked so as to identify its chemistry. This document defines the conditions of utilization of the markings indicating the chemistry of these secondary batteries. The details of markings and their application are defined in this document. NOTE Nothing in this document precludes the marking of batteries with recycling and chemistry symbols required by state, federal, national or regional laws or regulations or with a seal under license by a national recycling program.
