Lithium-Ion Battery Fires

Talk to a safety specialist

Lithium-ion batteries are essential in our modern world, powering everything from smartphones to electric vehicles. They are found in many everyday products, such as hand tools, mobile equipment, and renewable energy storage systems (ESS).

However, their high energy density and chemical composition can pose serious safety risks if stored improperly, as they can malfunction and ignite.

A lithium-ion battery safety cabinet is designed to mitigate these risks, providing a secure environment for storing and charging lithium-ion batteries.

Dangerously Explosive

_________________________________

Lithium-ion batteries are more susceptible to explosions when burning, resulting in fires spreading faster and posing a more significant threat of injury and burns to people.

Highly Toxic

__________________

Fumes and gases are released when a lithium-ion battery is on fire, posing several short-term and chronic threats to people and negative environmental impacts.

Difficult to Extinguish

________________________________

Lithium-ion batteries can generate heat and fuel, combust, react chemically with water, burn at higher temperatures, and unexpectedly reignite.

Gives Little Warning

_____________________________

Given the nature of lithium-ion batteries, they can mask potential indicators of battery failure. Because of the fast-spreading nature of a lithium-ion battery fire, it’s difficult to stop it from spreading.

Lithium-Ion Battery Charging and Storage Cabinet

Justrite's Lithium-Ion battery Charging Safety Cabinet is engineered to charge and store lithium batteries safely. Charge lithium-ion batteries and avoid catastrophic losses by containing fires, smoke, and explosions with their proprietary 9-Layer ChargeGuard™ system.

How does the 9-Layer ChargeGuard Containment System work?

This state-of-the-art cabinet features multiple layers of advanced shielding specifically designed to reduce the risks of battery fires and thermal runaway, minimizing potential losses from fire, smoke, and explosions caused by lithium-ion batteries.

Eight receptacles allow for simultaneous charging of multiple batteries up to a maximum of 4kWh, providing a reliable and efficient solution. The lightweight benchtop design will enable users to conveniently relocate the cabinet with minimal effort, while lockable doors help control access to lithium-ion batteries while preventing opportunities for theft.

Crossflow Fan Ventilation System

____________________________________________

A constant supply of fresh air pulling into the cabinet helps keep the batteries cool while charging in their contained environment.

Convenient Benchtop Design

______________________________

Keep your batteries easily accessible while they charge in a safe and contained environment at a convenient counter height.

Lockable Doors

________________

Control the access to lithium-ion batteries, helping to prevent theft and enforce protocols with its lockable paddle latch handle.

Small Footprint

________________

Maintain safety and battery charging capacity without bulky storage units that consume valuable and limited space.
