Publicly solicit opinions on “Lithium-ion Battery Industry Specification Conditions (2021 version)” (Draft for solicitation of comments) and “Lithium-ion Battery Industry Specification Annoucement Management Measures (2021 version)” (Draft for solicitation of comments),
Lithium-ion Battery,

▍SIRIM Certification

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

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.

▍SIRIM Certification- Secondary Battery

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

▍Why MCM?

● 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.

On November 18th, 2021, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has published the “Lithium-ion Battery Industry Specification Conditions (2021 version)” (draft for comments) and “Lithium-ion Batter y Industr y Specification Announcements Management Measures (2021 version)” (Draft for solicitation of comments), and now publically solicit the opinions. In order to further strengthen the management of the lithium-ion battery industry, and promote the transformation and upgrading of the industry and the improvement of the technology, Department of Electronic Information, Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology has organized to revise these two standards. If any comments or suggestions, please login in the website of Ministry of Industry and Information (as below link) to download the file and send it back to the Department of Electronic Information of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology by fax or email before November 28th, 2021.
Lithium battery industry specification puts forward requirements for lithium-ion batteries to meet national mandatory standards:“Safety requirements of lithium-ion batteries and battery packs for portable electronic products” (GB31241) “Safety technology specification of lithium-ion batteries and battery packs for Stationary electronic equipment” (GB40165) Mandatory standards requirements of “Safety requirements of power batteries for electric vehicles”, and pass the inspection by a testing organization with corresponding qualifications.
