Why Lithium-Ion Battery Fires Require Special Protection
Lithium-ion batteries contain a large amount of stored energy within a compact enclosure. When a battery is damaged, overheated, overcharged, internally short-circuited or exposed to unsuitable operating conditions, it may enter a process known as thermal runaway.
During thermal runaway, the battery may continue generating heat internally. This can result in:
- Rapid temperature increase
- Release of flammable gases
- Dense and hazardous smoke
- Fire spreading from one cell to another
- Jet flames from the battery casing
- Explosion or rupture of battery cells
- Re-ignition after the visible flames have been controlled
- Damage to nearby equipment and structures
An ordinary fire extinguisher may suppress visible flames but may not always remove the heat trapped inside the battery cells. Therefore, lithium-ion battery incidents require careful consideration of fire suppression, cooling, containment and post-fire monitoring.
What Is a Lithium Battery Fire Extinguisher?
A lithium battery fire extinguisher is a specialised firefighting unit intended for controlling early-stage fires involving lithium-ion batteries or battery-powered equipment.
Depending on the selected extinguishing medium and product design, a lithium battery fire extinguisher may help:
- Suppress visible flames
- Reduce the temperature of the battery
- Control heat transfer
- Limit fire propagation
- Prevent nearby battery cells from becoming involved
- Reduce the possibility of re-ignition
- Provide additional time for evacuation and emergency response
The suitability of an extinguisher depends on the battery chemistry, battery size, stored energy, enclosure design and expected fire scenario.
Small portable extinguishers may be suitable for mobile phones, laptops, power tools or small battery packs. Larger battery installations, electric vehicles and Battery Energy Storage Systems may require trolley-mounted equipment or an engineered fire detection and suppression system.
