Can a lithium-ion battery energy storage system detect a fire?

Since December 2019, Siemens has been offering a VdS-certified fire detection concept for stationary lithium-ion battery energy storage systems.* Through Siemens research with multiple lithium-ion battery manufacturers, the FDA unit has proven to detect a pending battery fire event up to 5 times faster than competitive detection technologies.

What is a lithium-ion battery energy storage system (Lib-ESS)?

Lithium-ion battery (LIB) energy storage systems (LIB-ESS) come in a variety of types, sizes, applications, and locations. The use of the technology is continually expanding, becoming more available for a range of energy storage applications, from small residential support systems to large electrical grid systems.

Why is early detection important for lithium-ion battery energy storage systems?

Early detection allows mitigation steps to be carried out long before a potentially disastrous event, such as lithium-ion battery With 5 times faster detection capability, Siemens fire detection products contribute to stationary lithium-ion battery energy storage systems manageable risk.

What are the NFPA 855 fire-fighting considerations for lithium-ion batteries?

For example, an extract of Annex C Fire-Fighting Considerations (Operations) in NFPA 855 states the following in C.5.1 Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) Batteries: Water is considered the preferred agent for suppressing lithium-ion battery fires.

Are Li-ion batteries a fire hazard?

The importance of Li-ion battery storage systems has increased dramatically in recent years. Since the market introduction of Lithium-ion batteries, they have been used in a wide variety of applications including stationary energy storage in smart grids. However, this type of battery can present a considerable fire hazard.

What is the best solution to protect lithium-ion battery fire hazards?

Nitrogen suppression is the best solution to effectively protect lithium-ion battery fire hazards. By using high-pressure nitrogen cylinders (4351 PSI), the Sinorix NXN N2 solution has a smaller footprint, allowing for better utilization of space in smaller enclosures (e.g. a 20' BESS unit). licenses.
