Cell Holders

Built for high-precision testing

NOVONIX provides fully integrated systems that include cell holders. We manufacture cell holders configured for pouch cells, coin cells, cylindrical cells, and custom designs for high-precision testing.

Standard format cell holders

These cell holders are designed to be used with NOVONIX 2A Channel Modules. They carry a circuit board with an integrated RTD temperature sensor and a header to optionally connect an external RTD for cell surface measurements*. They can accommodate Coin, Standard Cylindrical (18650, 26650), and Pouch cells.

*See External RTD assemblies, below.

Standard format cell holders have maximum current ratings of 5A.

Coin Cell

Fully isolated V+/- and I+/- leads. Can accommodate standard coin cell sizes.

Cylindrical Cell

Fully isolated V+/- and I+/- leads. Can accommodate standard cylindrical sizes (18650, 26650) and is adaptable for other
cell sizes.

Alligator Pouch Cell

Fully isolated V+/- and I+/- leads. Configurable lead lengths can accommodate different cell tab layouts.

Clip Pouch Cell

Fully isolated V+/- and I+/- leads. Fixed clip position can accommodate various pouch cell sizes.

Large format cell holders

These cell holders are designed to be used on NOVONIX 10A or 20A Channel Modules. While they have no integrated RTD to temperature sensing, they provide a flying lead for an external RTD to optionally be used*.

*See External RTD assemblies, below.

Large format cell holders have a maximum current rating of 30A.

Clip Pouch Cell

High power, large-format pouch cell connector with clip connectors.

Ring Pouch Cell

High power, large-format cell connector with stripped wire, alligator clips, or ring terminal

NOVONIX can build custom-designed cell holders to accommodate specific test environments, from wire lead-length to different cell-fastening configurations.

*External RTD assemblies

All NOVONIX cell holders provide an optional 4-wire header to connect an RTD assembly. Once connected, the RTD temperature reading is logged alongside cycling data in UHPC systems.

All NOVONIX UHPC Channel Modules are calibrated to provide accurate temperature readings from these RTD assemblies.
