Battery rooms, especially those housing large energy storage systems (ESS), are critical components of modern infrastructure. However, they also pose significant fire risks due to the chemical nature of batteries, particularly lithium-ion (Li-ion) and lead-acid batteries.
Selecting high-quality, flame-retardant UPS batteries and equipment forms the foundation of fire safety. Choose equipment with low internal resistance and minimal heat generation to reduce fault risks.
UPS battery fire prevention measures: 1. Control the charging amount without overcharging to reduce the amount of gas evolution. In the charging room, open flames are strictly prohibited and ventilation is maintained. 2. During charging, the wiring points must be firm to avoid sparks caused by looseness. 3.
UPS equipment rooms require efficient extinguishing and alarm systems to address fire risks promptly. It is recommended to install gaseous suppression systems (e.g., FM-200) or fine water mist systems in battery rooms, while automatic sprinkler systems are better suited for lithium-ion battery UPS due to their fire characteristics.
