Fire Protection For Lithium
Lithium-ion battery storage and manufacturing facilities require special protection from
fire risks that are present. It is important to understand the risks that are present as well
as the steps to take to protect against the dangers.
2. Fire Suppression systems: With the fire risks that are present with thermal
runway, special hazard fire suppression systems should be used for effective
protection. Clean agent fire suppression, water mist systems, inert gas
systems, and novec fire suppression systems are all options for special
hazard protection from the unique risks that are present with lithium-ion
battery storage and manufacturing.
3. Regular inspections and maintenance: It is important that once you have the
appropriate detection and suppression systems, they are also regularly
inspected for effective use.
