Secondary cells and batteries containing alkaline or other non-acid electrolytes - Vented nickel-cadmium prismatic rechargeable single cells (IEC 60623:2017); German version EN 60623:2017
Akkumulatoren und Batterien mit alkalischen oder anderen nicht-säurehaltigen Elektrolyten - Geschlossene prismatische wiederaufladbare Nickel-Cadmium-Einzelzellen (IEC 60623:2017); Deutsche Fassung EN 60623:2017
Overview
This standard is intended to replace the previous edition published in October 2002. The standard specifies the labeling, designation, dimensions, tests and requirements for closed prismatic rechargeable nickel-cadmium single cells. "Prismatic" in this context refers to cells that have right-angled sides and bases. If there is an IEC standard that covers tests and requirements for cells for special applications, and which is in conflict with this standard, the former shall be applied with priority. The responsible committee is DKE/K 371 "Akkumulatoren" ("Accumulators") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
