Mobile Phone Will Run Parallel Testing First,
Mobile Phone,
For the security of person and property, Malaysia government establishes product certification scheme and puts surveillance on electronic appliances, information & multimedia and construction materials. Controlled products can be exported to Malaysia only after obtaining product certification certificate and labeling.
SIRIM QAS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Malaysian Institute of Industry Standards, is the only designated certification unit of the Malaysian national regulatory agencies (KDPNHEP, SKMM, etc.).
The secondary battery certification is designated by KDPNHEP (Malaysian Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs) as the sole certification authority. Currently, manufacturers, importers and traders can apply for certification to SIRIM QAS and apply for the testing and certification of secondary batteries under the licensed certification mode.
Secondary battery is currently subject to voluntary certification but it is going to be in the scope of mandatory certification soon. The exact mandatory date is subject to the official Malaysian announcement time. SIRIM QAS has already started accepting certification requests.
Secondary battery certification Standard : MS IEC 62133:2017 or IEC 62133:2012
● Established a good technical exchange and information exchange channel with SIRIM QAS who assigned a specialist to handle with MCM projects and inquiries only and to share the latest precisely information of this area.
● SIRIM QAS recognizes MCM testing data so that samples can be tested in MCM instead of delivering to Malaysia.
● To provide one-stop service for Malaysian certification of batteries, adapters and mobile phones.
This month, IECEE issued two resolutions on IEC 62133-2 concerning the selection of upper/lower limit charging temperatures of cell and the limited voltage of battery. The following are the details of the resolutions:The resolution clearly states: In the actual test, no carrying out the +/-5℃ operation is acceptable, and charging can be carried out at the normal upper/lower limit charging temperature when charging in the manner of Clause 7.1.2 (requiring charging at upper and lower limit temperatures), though Appendix A.4 of the standard states that when the upper/lower limit temperature isn’t 10°C /45°C, the expected upper limit temperature shall be increased by 5°C and the lower limit temperature needs to be reduced by 5°C.In addition, the Panel of IEC SC21A(Sub-Technical Committee on Alkaline and Non-Acidic Batteries) intends to remove the +/-5℃ requirement in Appendix A.4 in the case of IEC 62133-2:3.2017/AMD2.BIS lab/BIS recognized labs can initiate testing of battery without R-number of cell. The lab will mention the test report no. along-with the name of lab (in place of R-Number of cell) in the final test report of the battery.Similarly, the lab can initiate the testing of Mobile Phone without R-number of cell, battery & adaptor. The lab will mention the test report number(s) & name(s) of the lab for these components in the final test report of the mobile phone.
