Lithium-ion batteries are commonly used in our daily gadgets like phones and laptops, as well as in larger setups like solar and backup power installations. However, if these batteries are mishandled or overcharged due to incorrect installation and use, they can catch fire. These fires involve two dangerous processes: Thermal Runaway within individual battery cells and Thermal Propagation between neighbouring cells. To effectively combat these threats, we require a robust solution. That’s where FIREBLOCK LITHIUM Fire Extinguisher Gel comes in. FIREBLOCK LITHIUM Fire Extinguisher Gel is a potent solution that swiftly cools down overheated batteries, stops Thermal Runaway within seconds, and forms a protective barrier between cells to halt the spread of fire. FIREBLOCK LITHIUM is essential for managing lithium battery fires effectively. Key Features: Non toxic and 100% bio-degradable Quick flame knockdown ability Cools battery temperature within seconds Can arrest and prevent thermal runaway and thermal propagation Reduces emissions of toxic smoke, lowering explosion risk Insurance Compliant Lithium Battery Fire Extinguisher 5 YEAR WARRANTY It’s important to note that when dealing with lithium battery fires, safety precautions should be taken, and the use of the appropriate fire extinguishing equipment, like a lithium battery fire extinguisher, is essential to minimise the risk of injury or property damage. Benefits of Fireblock Lithium Battery Fire Extinguisher: Specialised Extinguisher: Fireblock Lithium is a gel designed specifically to tackle lithium battery fires that other extinguishers can't handle. Eco-Friendly: It's non-toxic and completely biodegradable, making it safe for both people and the environment. Effective Cooling: Its unique formula swiftly knocks down flames and cools down the fire, thanks to its powerful composition. Surface Adherence: Fireblock Lithium sticks to surfaces well, minimising run-off and ensuring efficient firefighting. Temperature Reduction: It significantly lowers the temperature of the battery pack, preventing further escalation of the fire. Quick Action: Tests have proven that Fireblock Lithium rapidly reduces battery temperature in under a minute, curbing thermal runaway. Prevents Spread: Acting as a barrier between cells, it stops fire propagation within battery packs, enhancing safety. Minimal Run-off: With less than 10% runoff, it minimises environmental contamination from lithium chemicals. Smoke Reduction: By substantially reducing toxic smoke, Fireblock Lithium mitigates environmental impact and lowers explosion risks in confined spaces.
