There are three main causes

• Electrical Abuse
• Mechanical Abuse
• Thermal Abuse

A Lithium-ion battery fire presents a unique and distinct fire hazard. Unlike traditional fires, Litihum-battery fires progress very quickly, release high amounts of energy, generate intense heat, and toxic and flammable gases, and have the potential for explosions.

Furthermore, Lithium-ion battery fires can reignite some hours, days, or even weeks later.

Existing fire extinguishers designed for conventional fires are ineffective in controlling thermal runaway reactions, so having the right precautions in place is critical.

AVD Fire offers a unique solution that can be used across a range of applications to effectively tackle the unique challenges of a Lithium-ion battery fire.
