Product Description: The LiCELL AA500 is a portable fire extinguisher containing AVD (Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion), designed to combat lithium battery fires. It's suitable for lithium battery fires (Li-ion and Li-poly), electrical fires, and class A fires. This environmentally friendly extinguisher has no Global Warming Potential (GWP) and is non-toxic to people, animals, and plants.
Lithium battery fires are dangerous due to thermal runaway caused by cell failure from damage, defect, short circuits, overcharging, or overheating. The LiCELL™ extinguishers encapsulate the fire source with a non-flammable oxygen barrier that cools to stop thermal runaway. This unique technology can protect lives and assets on oceans and waterways from catastrophic fires.
Causes of Lithium Battery Failure:
Physical impact or penetration
Overheating
Short circuits
Internal cell failure
Manufacturing defects
As technology with lithium batteries becomes more prevalent, so does the risk of lithium battery fires. Are you prepared for a lithium battery fire? The consequences can be severe, so having the right precautions in place is critical.
