Battery systems, modules and cells must be protected against external (electrical) fires. Possible measures: Fire alarm system with automatic extinguishing system for electrical risks. The extinguishing agent should ensure zero residue to the protection of the installation.
3S Incorporated designs and installs fire protection systems for lithium-ion battery storage and manufacturing. We understand the unique risks posed by lithium-ion batteries and how to protect against dangerous fires in storage or manufacturing areas.
Lithium-ion battery storage containers and manufacturing spaces require special hazard fire suppression systems to protect against the dangerous possibility of thermal runway. What is Thermal Runway? Lithium-ion batteries are charged and discharged to meet demands for power from the grid. This energy flow in and out of the batteries creates heat.
Evidence has shown that the key to successful fire protection of lithium-ion batteries is suppressing/extinguishing the fire, reducing of heat-transfer from cell to cell and then cooling the adjacent cells that make up the battery pack/module.
Provision of suitable compartmentation around the battery packs to limit the spread of any fire, this is probably much simpler in marine applications. Suitable Battery Management Systems linked to fire and gas detection systems to enable fast detection to allow for activation of fire protection systems and evacuation of passengers where applicable.
Some fire suppression systems used in these spaces include: Early detection of a fire is important in lithium-ion battery storage and manufacturing spaces. Some detection systems that are effective in these areas include: 3S Incorporated designs and installs fire protection systems for lithium-ion battery storage and manufacturing.
