BATTERY ROOM SOLUTION
Batteries present both chemical and electrical hazards, which vary depending on the type. Lead-acid batteries store large amounts of energy and are used in battery storage systems, which capture off-peak energy for use during peak hours. These systems involve both charging and discharging processes.
There are early warning signs prior to the actual thermal runaway event. Electrolyte outgassing is a reliable indicator. A thermal runaway event is imminent as soon as electrolytic gas develops. However, there is still time to automatically initiate appropriate counter or extinguishing measures.
This is accomplished through a two-pronged approach:
- First, introduce a sufficient concentration of extinguishing agent into the room where the battery is located before the separator in the first battery cell fails.
- Second, using the battery management system to initiate shutdowns in order to prevent the spread of a runaway caused by overcharging or overload.
We at AITO offer experienced advice, consulting services, and a solution for Battery Room Protection.
