Related Factors Affecting The Service Life Of Battery Boxes

May 28, 2025

The service life of a battery box is affected by various factors, including battery type, usage environment, maintenance status, and manufacturing process. The following is a comprehensive analysis of the lifespan range and related influencing factors of different types of battery boxes:

 

1. Lead acid batteries

The typical lifespan is 2-3 years, but with proper maintenance and usage habits, it can be extended to 3-5 years

Temperature: For every 10 ° C increase in ambient temperature, the lifespan may be halved.

Usage habits: Frequent short distance driving, long-term low battery storage, and installation of high-power appliances can accelerate aging.

Maintenance: Regularly cleaning the oxide on the battery stack can extend its service life.

2. Electric vehicle batteries

The lifespan is usually between 1.5-2.5 years, but in actual use, it may be shortened to around 2 years due to improper maintenance.

Lithium iron phosphate battery: Long cycle life, but poor low-temperature performance.

Ternary lithium battery: high energy density, but slightly shorter cycle life.

Charging and discharging strategy: avoid overcharging and overdischarging; Due to the smaller battery capacity, the extended range model may have 5 higher cycles.

3. Industrial battery box

Life range: The design life is generally 5-10 years, and strict temperature control is required for actual use .

Temperature management: Maintenance free lead-acid batteries decay faster at high temperatures.

Manufacturing process: For example, IOK brand battery cases use laser welding and graphene heat dissipation materials to improve sealing and heat dissipation efficiency.

Test standard: Simulate the coupling effect of temperature, humidity, and vibration through three comprehensive test boxes to verify long-term reliability.

4. Portable device battery box

Life range: usually 3-7 years, depending on the frequency of use and the number of charge and discharge cycles.

Design optimization: The battery box with a "sandwich" structure can extend its service life by 4 years and has a high level of protection.

Intelligent management: The battery management system monitors the charging and discharging status to prevent overload and overheating.

Environmentally friendly materials such as silicone sealing strips and biodegradable shells to reduce the impact of aging.

Suggestions for extending the service life:

 

★ Environmental control: Maintain appropriate temperature and avoid extreme high or low temperatures.
★ Regular maintenance: check sealing, clean oxides, optimize charging and discharging strategies.
★ Choose high protection design: such as using composite material battery boxes, which have better impact resistance, dust and water resistance.
