Cell Structure & Build

The IFR26650-34D uses a stainless-steel can with PET shrink film and laser-welded terminals. In-house electrode, assembly and formation processes keep internal resistance below 20mΩ and capacity consistent from batch to batch.

  • Stainless-steel can + PET film — mechanical protection and insulation
  • Laser-welded terminals — low-resistance, robust joints
  • 85 ± 2 g — consistent cell weight for PACK balancing
  • Batch-level traceability — from raw material to finished cell

Wide-Temperature Performance

Discharge is rated from −40 °C to +60 °C. At −20 °C the cell delivers at least 76% of its capacity at 1C, and charging is supported at −20 °C / 0.2C without external heating — useful for outdoor cabinets, cold-region equipment and winter mobility.

  • −40 °C to +60 °C discharge window
  • ≥76% capacity at −20 °C / 1C
  • −20 °C / 0.2C low-temperature charging
  • 10C short pulse (≤30 s) / 5C long pulse (≤60 s)

≈97%45 °C / 30-day capacity recovery
≈96%60 °C / 7-day capacity retention
≈97%60 °C / 7-day capacity recovery

Test conditions: charge CC/CV at 0.5C to 3.65V with 0.02C cut-off at 25 °C; discharge CC at 0.5C to 2.0V. Storage tests: 45 °C for 30 days and 60 °C for 7 days.

What does the −40 °C to +60 °C rating cover?
The rating describes the cell's discharge operating window. Charge and storage conditions depend on the BMS and pack design — share your operating profile and our engineers will confirm the safe charge window for your application.
How does capacity change at low temperature?
Available capacity in cold conditions depends on discharge current, cut-off voltage and pack insulation. PLB can provide temperature-specific discharge data for your load profile on request.
What cycle life can I expect?
The IFR26650-34D exceeds 2,000 cycles at ±1C and 100% depth of discharge. Actual life depends on charge/discharge rate, temperature and depth of discharge in service.
Which certifications does the cell support?
The cell is designed to meet UL1642, UL2054, UL1973, IEC62133, UN38.3, RoHS and REACH requirements. Final certification is issued for the completed pack and should be confirmed with our quality team for your project.
Can PLB build a custom PACK around this cell?
Yes. PLB designs and assembles custom LiFePO4 packs with matching BMS, enclosure, terminals and communication interfaces. Send your voltage, capacity, current and mechanical requirements for a proposal.
