6 FAQs about [Sint Maarten nfpa lithium ion battery storage]
Should lithium ion battery storage be included in NFPA 13?
A push to include lithium ion battery storage in NFPA 13 prompted this study. It included tests of batteries and comparable general stored commodities in cartons when exposed to an ignition source. Kathleen Almand explains the rationale behind the tests as well as the testing procedures and the encouraging conclusions. Phase I
Can lithium ion batteries be sprinkler protected?
At the request of the Fire Protection Research Foundation (FPRF), Exponent has reported on sprinkler protection of lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries stored in cartons. This report summarizes a full-scale, reduced-commodity fire test, a large-scale sprinklered fire test and a series of smaller-scale tests/evaluations, as reported by FM Global.
Are lithium-ion batteries safe?
While lithium-ion batteries ofer all these benefits, it’s important to remember that like all batteries, they can pose a fire risk. That’s why batteries are governed by fire codes and standards, to ensure their safe and efective placement and use in applications such as data centers. NFPA 855 is one such standard.
