This SAE Standard serves as a guide for testing procedures of automotive 12 V storage batteries. The information contained herein was originally developed based on traditional ICE operation but can be more broadly applicable to other vehicle architectures. Although the test procedures contained herein are written from the standpoint of a 12 V nominal battery, they can be scaled for batteries with different nominal voltages.

This SAE Standard applies to lead-acid 12 V heavy-duty storage batteries as described in SAE J537 and SAE J930 for uses in starting, lighting and ignition (SLI) applications on motor vehicles and/or off-road machines. These applications have some of the following characteristics: a High levels of power are required to start the vehicle’s internal combustion engine. The need to supply this power limits the maximum depth of discharge to a fraction of the total capacity of the battery.

LIFE TEST FOR HEAVY-DUTY STORAGE BATTERIES

HISTORICAL

J2185_199709

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to 12 V storage batteries which operate in a voltage regulated charging system. It simulates heavy-duty applications by subjecting the battery to deeper discharge and charge cycles than those encountered in starting a vehicle. The deeper discharge and charge cycles in service may come from a combination of the following conditions: a Frequent occurrences of total electrical load exceeding the alternator output. b Frequent occurrences of battery system supplying the electrical loads when the engine is not operating. c Frequent occurrences of prolonged vehicle storage combined with high vehicle key-off loads. Batteries will be classified into two types for this life test. Type 1 applies to batteries with reserve capacity of 200 min or less. Type 2 applies to batteries with reserve capacity greater than 200 min. (“C” value for Type 1 equals 25.0; “C” value for Type 2 equals 50.0.)
