IEC 62259 pdf download Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes – Nickel-cadmium prismatic secondary single cells with partial gas recombination
1 scope
This International Standard specifies marking，designation，dimensions,tests and require-ments for vented nickel-cadmium prismatic secondary single cells where special provisionshave been made in order to have partial or，under very specific conditions,full gasrecombination.
NOTE ln this context, “prismatic” refers to cells having rectangular sides and base.
When there exists an lEC standard specifying test conditions and requirements for cells usedin special applications and which is in conflict with this standard， the former shall takeprecedence.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions contained in IEC 60050-486 and
the following apply.
3.1
vented cell
a secondary cell having a cover provided with an opening through which gaseous products may escape
NOTE The opening may be fitted with a venting system, which may include an overpressure vent.
3.2
nominal voltage
the nominal voltage of a vented nickel-cadmium rechargeable single cell with partial gas recombination is 1 ,2 V
3.3
rated capacity
quantity of electricity C 5 Ah (ampere hours), declared by the manufacturer, which a single cell can deliver during a 5 h period when charged, stored and discharged under the conditions
specified in clause 7.2.1
3.4
partial gas recombination
ability of a cell to recombine most of the gases evolved during charging under the conditions specified in 7.9
4 Parameter measurement tolerances
The overall accuracy of controlled or measured values, relative to the specified or actual values, shall be within these tolerances:
a) + 1 % . for voltage;
b) + 1 % for current;
c) + 2 °C for temperature;
d) + 0,1 % for time;
e) + 1 % for capacity;
f) + 5 % for gas volume.
These tolerances comprise the combined accuracy of the measuring instruments, the measurement techniques used and all other sources of error in the test procedure.
For assistance in selecting instrumentation, see IEC 60051 for analogue instruments and IEC 60485 for digital instruments. The details of the instrumentation used shall be provided in any report of results.
