FOGTEC together with the Institute for Applied Fire Safety Research (IFAB) from Berlin have successfully executed the second round of fire tests. During this series, additional fire tests with Lithium Ion Batteries were carried out. The ignition was realised by overcharging the batteries.
The test series included several free-burn tests; moreover, a number of fire tests with different firefighting technologies were carried out, including the use of water mist, sprinkler, gas and aerosol systems. At the same time, various fire detection technologies were tested. We are currently evaluating the results which will be published in due course.
Zweite Brandversuchsreihe mit Batterien
/in News/von Marie KutschenreuterFOGTEC hat gemeinsam mit dem Institut für angewandte Brandschutzforschung (IFAB) aus Berlin erfolgreich eine zweite Brandversuchsreihe durchgeführt. Während der Versuchsreihe wurden mehrere Brandversuche mit Lithium-Ionen-Batterien realisiert. Das thermische Durchgehen der Akkus wurde mittels einer Überladung realisiert.
Die Testreihe beinhaltete mehrere Freibrandversuche sowie zahlreiche Versuche mit verschiedensten Brandbekämpfungssystemen. Unter anderem wurde die Wirkung von Wassernebel, Sprinklern, Löschgas und Aerosol-Systemen getestet. Gleichzeitig wurden diverse Detektionstechnologien auf Herz und Nieren geprüft. Aktuell werden die Resultate ausgewertet und zu gegebener Zeit veröffentlicht.
