Firechief 9ltr Lith-Ex G2 Extinguisher

A lithium-ion battery fire may result from physical damage that causes a short circuit, overcharging or increased external temperature.

Firechief Lith-Ex is the world’s first fire extinguisher designed to tackle Lithium-ion battery fires in mobile phones, tablets, laptops, toys, power tools and electric scooters.

• Designed for use on Lithium-ion battery fires
• BSI Kitemarked to EN3
• Can extinguish Lithium-ion battery fires, uncontrollable by other extinguisher types
• Quickly cools and prevents excessive heat, forming a thermal barrier to stop fire propagation
• Easy to store
• Non-toxic
• Environmentally friendly
• Ideal for use on mobile phones, laptops, tablets, power tools, toys, electric scooters, and e-bikes

The following table demonstrates the AVD testing that has been carried out to date:

The results from these lithium-ion battery fire tests are as follows:

• AVD is practically effective when applied in a form of a mist
• AVD is suitable for application for both portable extinguishers and fixed systems
• AVD encapsulates the fuel source and insulates the cells preventing further thermal runaway; this prevents the propagation of the fire
• The system can be designed to suit the specific requirements of the location and application
• AVD is Dielectric Test approved in line with BS EN 3-7: 2004 + A1: 2007
