Fire Queen Limited can supply fire extinguishers for tackling Lithium-Ion battery fires. These high performance Lith-Ex fire extinguishers contain AVD (Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion) compound – a revolutionary fire extinguishing agent & are designed to target high risk fires of a limited size.
In all circumstances, only suitably trained personnel/emergency-responders should attempt to extinguish early-stage lithium-ion battery fires, when it is safe to do so. As lithium-ion battery fires create their own oxygen during thermal runaway, they are very difficult for fire and rescue services to deal with.
While the Firechief Lith-Ex is highly recommended, other options also provide effective fire suppression for lithium-ion batteries: CO2 Extinguishers: Carbon dioxide extinguishers can be effective in some cases, as they remove oxygen from the fire environment.
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.
Due to lithium-ion batteries generating their own oxygen during thermal runaway, it is worth noting that lithium-ion battery fires or a burning lithium ion battery can be very difficult to control. For this reason, it is worth understanding how lithium-ion fires can be controlled should a fire scenario happen.
Conventional fire extinguishers, such as those using water or foam, are unsuitable for lithium-ion battery fires due to the nature of the fire. Water can react explosively with the chemicals in these batteries, while foam extinguishers might not effectively suppress the fire.
