Fire Risk & Flammable Liquids

Lithium-Ion Battery Safety

Lithium-ion battery use is increasing across the workplace. Mining, warehousing, and industrial settings require advanced protection particularly as batteries are recharged.

Lithium-ion battery fires are especially dangerous as they are:

  • Dangerously explosive. Combustion or blasts cause fires to spread swiftly and expansively.
  • Difficult to extinguish and can even re-ignite after being extinguished.
  • Release toxic gases and fumes, with risks to health and environment.
  • Give little warning of malfunction, leaving little warning of emergency.

We help protect facilities from catastrophic loses with the Justrite Lithium-Ion Battery Charging Cabinet. This highly secure, benchtop storage and charging station is designed specifically for lithium-ion batteries. It accommodates up to eight batteries charging simultaneously, with a maximum capacity of 4kWh.

The cabinet features the patented 9-layer ChargeGuard protection system, engineered to guard against thermal runaway and fires, especially during charging, when most battery fires occur.

It keeps your gas detectors working, without you having to worry about repairs or planning replacements. INet Exchange covers calibration, bump testing, docking stations and training. It flags when a gas detector is need of service and replacement taking the guesswork out of gas detection maintenance.

Progressive Safety has a special partnership with Industrial Scientific, so you get this smart monitoring service backed by trusted local support.
