What are the inspection standards for vaping products? The inspection of vaping products focuses on taste experience and safety issues. The selection of raw materials, the use of additives, and technical planning all need to be inspected. The birth of a product comes from multiple sample tests and adjustments to achieve the ideal taste experience.

What are the inspection standards for vaping products?

The reliability testing of e-cigarette samples is generally divided into three parts: finished e-cigarettes, atomizers, and batteries. However, with the gradual evolution of e-cigarette structures and the trend towards integrated designs, the testing items for finished products and atomizers have almost merged into one.

What are the inspection standards for vaping products? Finished e-cigarettes

The taste experience of an e-cigarette is generally measured by the number of puffs, airflow, vapor volume, whether there is oil leakage, whether there is a burnt taste, and the temperature of the e-cigarette surface and the surface in contact with the user during the heating process, i.e., the working temperature.

1. Number of puffs

Testing the e-liquid counter

Automatic smoking machine: testing e-liquid with an automatic smoking testing machine.

2. Airflow

Manual smoking, testing e-liquid, ensuring smooth airflow.

Automatic smoking machine tests e-liquid by setting the timer for smoking time and pause time, for example: inhale for 2 seconds, pause for 5 seconds, testing the suction power under OK conditions.

3. Vapor volume

Manual smoking, subjective feeling of vapor volume.

4. Oil leakage

Manual smoking, ensuring no e-liquid is inhaled.

Vibration testing, product bare machine vibration frequency ** times/minute, shipping packaging vibration frequency ** times/minute, ensuring no oil leakage at the mouthpiece and cap.

5. Burnt taste

Testing e-liquid to ensure there is no burnt taste or any off-flavors.

6. Working temperature

Automatic smoking machine: during smoking, the temperature measuring point of the thermometer contacts the outer wall of the heating element to detect real-time temperature.

What are the inspection standards for vaping products? Atomizers

1. Resistance value

Using a digital bridge, the positive and negative electrodes are respectively contacted to the atomizer's electrodes and threads to measure resistance.

2. Airflow

Manual smoking, testing e-liquid, ensuring smooth airflow.

Automatic smoking machine tests e-liquid by setting the timer for smoking time and pause time, ensuring the vapor volume meets requirements.

3. Vapor volume

Manual smoking: subjective feeling.

Automatic smoking machine: adjusting standard sample smoking state, setting the timer for smoking time and pause time, ensuring the vapor volume meets requirements.

4. Oil leakage

Manual smoking, ensuring no e-liquid is inhaled.

Vibration testing, product bare machine vibration frequency ** times/minute, shipping packaging vibration frequency ** times/minute, ensuring no oil leakage at the mouthpiece and cap.

5. Burnt taste

Testing e-liquid to ensure there is no burnt taste or any off-flavors.

6. Working temperature

Automatic smoking machine: during smoking, the temperature measuring point of the thermometer contacts the outer wall of the heating element to detect real-time temperature.

What are the inspection standards for vaping products? Batteries

The battery testing mentioned here is not for testing the battery alone, but for measuring whether the battery meets the requirements for the entire product;

1. Battery capacity

Using a battery capacity tester, the positive and negative clamps are respectively connected to the positive and negative terminals of the battery.

2. Static current

Static current of the battery control board and the battery cell.

3. Charging function

The output voltage and current of the power supply must match the input voltage and current of the charger.

4. Smoking function

When smoking, the LED light should be on, and the vapor volume from the atomizer should not be less than that of real cigarettes. The adjustable voltage battery should be able to adjust the voltage according to the product specifications by rotating the tail end.

5. Smoking timeout protection

According to the product specifications for the continuous working time of the battery, when the battery button is pressed for smoking, the LED light will flash * times, and the output will be turned off.

6. Short circuit protection

During smoking, if the heating wire shorts, the battery will not output, and the LED light will flash * times.

7. Low voltage protection

When the battery voltage is lower than the low voltage standard in the product specifications, pressing the smoking button will cause the LED to flash * times, indicating low battery, and the battery will not output.

8. Charging protection

When the battery voltage reaches the rated level, it will automatically disconnect charging to prevent overcharging.

9. Overcurrent protection

When the discharge current exceeds the standard required by the e-cigarette after the battery is loaded, the battery will automatically shut down and stop discharging.

10. Charging time

The standard time for the battery to charge from a low voltage state to full charge.

The above is about "inspection standards for vaping products". It is generally more reliable to purchase from well-known brands, as they tend to have more standardized components.
