24、2014 National Electrical Manufacturers Association Foreword (This Forew ord is not part of American National Standard C18.3M, Part 1-2013.) This edition of an American National Standard for Portable Lithium Primary Cells and Batteries is based in part on the previous American National Standard for L
25、ithium Primary Cells and BatteriesGeneral and Specifications, ANSI C18.3M, Part 1-2008, and recognizes the work of the International Electrotechnical Commission (refer to IEC Publications 60086-1 and 60086-2) in establishing world-wide standard requirements for portable lithium primary batteries. As
26、 with the previous edition, this edition includes the following chemistries: Lithium/carbon monofluoride; Lithium/manganese dioxide; Lithium/iron disulfide. After review, certain selected performance tests and dimensions were revised or added. In April 1996, the then ANSI Accredited Standards Commit
27、tee C18 on Specifications for Dry Cells and Batteries established a new general format for the publication of its standards, dividing this standard into two parts. Part 1 of this American National Standard for Portable Lithium Primary Cells and Batteries contains two basic sections. The first sectio
28、n has general requirements and information, such as the scope, applicable definitions, general descriptions of battery dimensions, terminal requirements, marking requirements, general design conditions, test conditions, etc. Section 2 of Part 1 is comprised of specification sheets for various types
29、of cells and batteries. Part 2 of the standard, a separate document, contains safety requirements. Suggestions for the improvement of this standard are welcome. They should be sent to the National Electrical Manufacturers Association, 1300 North 17th Street, Suite 1752, Rosslyn, VA 22209, Attention:
30、 Secretary ANSI ASC C18. This standard was processed and approved for submittal to ANSI by the American National Standards Committee C18 on Portable Cells and Batteries. Committee approval of this standard does not necessarily imply that all committee members voted for its approval. At the time Comm
31、ittee C18 approved this standard, it had the following members: Michael H.

36、3 Page 1 2014 National Electrical Manufacturers Association AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD ANSI C18.3M, PART 1-2013 For Portable Lithium Primary Cells and Batteries General and Specifications 1 General NOTEPart 1 does not include safety requirements. Safety requirements can be found in Part 2. 1.1 Scope
37、 and purpose 1.1.1 Scope This standard applies to portable lithium primary cells and batteries. This edition includes the following electrochemical systems: a) Lithium/carbon monofluoride; b) Lithium/manganese dioxide, and c) Lithium/iron disulfide. 1.1.2 Purpose The purpose of this publication is t
38、o: a) Ensure the electrical and physical interchangeability of products from different manufacturers; b) Minimize proliferation of cell and battery types; c) Define a standard of performance and provide guidance for its assessment, and d) Provide guidance to consumers, manufacturers, and designers.
39、This is achieved by specifying items such as: nomenclature, dimensions, polarity, terminals, marking, test conditions, and procedures. 1.2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this American National Standard.
