Excerpt

There are a number of gaps in the available information regarding lithium-ion fire hazards related to designing fire protection systems to protect personnel working in facilities where lithium-ion cells are stored and to protect personnel responding to a potential incident, as well as for protecting the surrounding environment in the case of an incident, and finally to protect property and structures. These gaps can be generally categorized into three areas:
  • A limited understanding of the composition and flammability of leaked cell electrolyte and cell vent gases
  • The lack of a fire protection commodity specification for bulk packaged lithium-ion cells or large format lithium-ion battery packs
  • Limited data regarding the effectiveness of potential suppressants, specifically water
we discuss each of these areas in further detail as well as fire and flammability testing approaches that could be used to close these gaps. …

1
The most widely used standard in terms of design and installation of sprinkler systems is NFPA 13 Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems developed by the National Fire Protection Association. It addresses sprinkler systems applications and proposes requirements for storage protection. Most of the current sprinkler system design criteria are based on full-scale testing and the application of experimental results that prove to provide a minimum level of protection. The most current edition of NFPA 13 is the 2010 edition.
