Energy storage fire protection manufacturer

How does Fike protect lithium ion batteries and energy storage systems?

Learn how Fike protects lithium ion batteries and energy storage systems from devestating fires through the use of gas detection, water mist and chemical agents.

Can a battery energy storage system control electrical fires?

However, these systems may be used in the computer or control rooms of an ESS to control any electrical fires. Thermal runaway in lithium batteries results in an uncontrollable rise in temperature and propagation of extreme fire hazards within a battery energy storage system (BESS).

What is HI-FOG water mist fire protection system?

The HI-FOG system ensures the fire safety of lithium-ion battery energy storage systems. The HI‐FOG water mist fire protection system has several advantages over traditional sprinkler systems for Li-ion battery fire suppression: cloud_download Download Fire protection of Li-ion BESS white paper

Does a battery have a fire protection system?

Battery manufacturers concentrate a lot of effort in preventing thermal runaway from occurring, but – despite all safety measures – it may still happen. When it does, an active fire protection system is needed to extinguish any resulting fires and prevent the fire damage from spreading to adjacent battery modules.

What is NFPA 855 – energy storage systems (ESS)?

NFPA 855 – Energy Storage Systems (ESS) – Are You Prepared? Energy Storage Systems (ESS) utilizing lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are the primary infrastructure for wind turbine farms, solar farms, and peak shaving facilities where the electrical grid is overburdened and cannot support the peak demands.

Are battery energy storage systems coming online?

Battery energy storage systems are coming online at a rate not seen with other industrial investments. Lithium-ion battery technology has become a standard solution in this application due to its technical performance.
