Why should you use a FirePro battery storage system?
Utilizing total flooding technology, FirePro systems quickly cool and smother fires, reducing the possibility re-ignition and thermal runaway propagation. Tested and proven, they ensure rapid, efficient fire control, making them essential for safeguarding your battery storage solutions.
What happens if a battery is burned in a house?
If a battery (energy storage system) is burning or involved in a residential structure fire, whether it is in a garage, the side of a home or basement, firefighters can apply the same fire flow principles as the solar panel fire.
Does a battery room need a ventilation system?
The ventilation system for the battery room shall be separate from ventilation systems for other spaces. Air recirculation in the battery room is prohibited. Exhaust air through a dedicated exhaust duct system if the battery room is not located on an outside wall.
What should a firefighter do if a battery is in a confined space?
Specifically, if the battery is in a confined space, firefighters should first effectively ventilate the area, then approach it in full firefighting PPE, including SCBA, and start flowing water at a minimum distance of 20 feet with a straight stream.
How should a battery room be designed?
Battery rooms shall be designed with an adequate exhaust system which provides for continuous ventilation of the battery room to prohibit the build-up of potentially explosive hydrogen gas. During normal operations, off gassing of the batteries is relatively small.
What if a battery is in a confined space?
If the battery is in a confined space and exposed to any internal or external heat above 150 degrees F, then it is critical that firefighters ventilate the space first. Once the space has been adequately ventilated, firefighters can attempt to extinguish the fire if needed and then evaluate whether the ESS needs to be isolated. 3.
