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.
Power generation and energy storage fires can be very costly, potentially resulting in a total write-off of the facility. Fires happen quickly and may spread fast, destroying critical company assets. Passive fire protection may lower risk but ignition sources and fuel supplies remain.
Most name and market the higher generated airflow value, but can only maintain this over a very short time – Desired clarity brings here the new standard DIN 14963 – BlowHard firefighters fans were one of the first and few tested and comply with the new standard DIN 14963 for portable ventilation equipment.
The International Fire Code (IFC) published its most robust ESS safety requirements in the most recent 2021 edition. By far the most dominant battery type installed in an energy storage system is lithium-ion, which brings with it particular fire risks.
The airflow of a BLOWHARD firefighting fan can be adjusted steplessly and easily by up to 180 degrees. Ergo-Fold thus enables firefighters to adapt the fan to any operational situation and thus ensure optimum pressure build-up in buildings.
