Quality Assurance

Superpack's quality department maintains records on each and every component and battery pack for years. All components that are used in their battery packs undergo incoming inspection to insure that they are compliant with all associated specifications. Component vendors are required to provide a certificate of conformance with every shipment and are maintained on file. All battery packs are subject to final inspection before packaging. Records are maintained for each battery including cell lot information, weld pull tests data and other key information.

Battery Testing & Quality Control:

Superpack utilizes first article inspection practices as well as on-line inspection, depending on the complexity of the battery. Every battery is 100% tested for functionality before it is submitted to final inspection. This ranges from a voltage and polarity test for batteries to pull testing for any battery with wire leads and connector, and to a charge / discharge system test for rechargeable batteries. Every battery is functionally tested, especially batteries containing communication circuitry, to make sure that the battery is fully operational. A final QC inspection is performed before the battery is packaged for shipment. Whatever the customer needs is for quality verification; Superpack can meet or exceed them.

Battery Pack Aging

Rechargeable batteries have to be charged and discharged a few times before they store and discharge to their full rated capacity. Upon request, Superpack can cycle each battery to be sure it is ready to use "out-of-the-box." Lithium-ion cells used in battery packs must be matched. Superpack only use the first class cells.
