Fire Suppression System

For fire protection, the outdoor version of the battery cabinet is equipped with an optical smoke detector, a temperature sensor and an aerosol fire suppression system. When the fire alarm system detects both signals, it activates the aerosol fire suppression system.

A thermal conductivity detector is also installed. When the thermal conductivity detector detects a corresponding signal, it activates the aerosol fire suppression system.

When the aerosol fire suppression system is activated, the LCU is alerted and the battery is switched off.

An integrated gas detector detects flammable gases. If the gas concentration exceeds a low threshold, a fan is switched on. If the gas concentration exceeds a higher threshold, the battery signals a disturbance and switches itself off.
