Dukosi will be using Keysight Technologies‘ SL1001A Battery Test System to support the development of battery degradation tracking and prediction algorithms, as well as state-of-charge monitors. 

Dukosi is working with the Battery Advances for Future Transport Applications (BAFTA) project to develop a framework to optimize performance and system management for safer and more efficient battery packs. To support its work, Dukosi chose Keysight’s Scienlab Battery Test Solution, including the SL1001A Battery Test System and Energy Storage Discover (ESD) software.

Dukosi CTO Joel Sylvester said, “Dukosi is conducting lithium-ion cell degradation studies, which means that experiments need to run safely for many months with minimal intervention. After considering many options, we chose Keysight to deliver a complete cycler and test chamber solution, to the highest safety levels, as one package.”

Keysight’s ESD software enables Dukosi to conduct tests that deliver concrete, stable and reproducible results. The software can monitor the charging behavior of different batteries in various temperature and climate conditions and use cases in stressed real-life environments.

Keysight’s Scienlab Test Solution enables Dukosi to:

• Design battery modules with increasing energy/power density
• Monitor degradation in different temperature environments
• Record several temperatures to investigate the reciprocal electrical and thermal influence of the cells in the modules.
