Power management company Eaton has introduced a 3-in-1 battery pack vent valve for EV batteries. The valve is capable of three functions: battery case leak-checking, and both passive and active venting to provide battery pack overpressure relief. The company says the leak-check mechanism eliminates the need to install the vent valve as the final step of battery assembly and that leak testing is more thorough because it includes testing the sealing surface of the vent after the vent valve has bee
