Day Two

9:00 AM BATTERY SAFETY TRAINING COURSE - BATTERY SAFETY HAZARDS, GUIDELINES, EQUIPMENT AND DESIGN

Batteries become daily use components for many applications. More than that we can say that without batteries our life will change dramatically – Just think on life with no mobile phones. In the race for energy density we sometimes forget the safety. Unfortunately we face daily safety events with injures and severe damage.


This training program focuses on portable and stationary battery safety along battery cycle life (acceptance, testing, assembly, use, transportation and disposal). The training incorporates Shmuel De-Leon and other experience on battery safety for over 25 years of work in the field. The motivation behind the training is to provide attendees with the knowledge needed to handle safely the batteries in their organization and to support reduction in safety events.
