Sprinklers for Lithium-Ion Battery Storage
The LB11 HSW In-rack Sprinkler is a true game changer for safeguarding your storage. It’s the first of its kind to be rigorously tested and effectively proven to protect against the unique fire risks posed by the storage of lithium-ion batteries. Plus, it’s also the only horizontal sidewall sprinkler that is UL listed for protection of storage in racks, increasing flexibility in the configuration of your storage space.
Watch for yourself as our team puts the LB11 HSW In-rack Sprinkler to the test! We set fire to lithium-ion batteries within a warehouse, where they were being stored in racks.
Deluge Sprinkler Systems for Tunnels
Fire can escalate quickly in vehicle tunnels, due to the enclosed nature of the space and the likely fuel sources. Here, deluge systems are the ultimate defense.
Deluge systems consist of water supply, a valve, a system of piping and nozzles that are open to atmosphere, and a means of detection and actuation. When the deluge valve is activated, water flows through all nozzles controlled by the valve. Unlike automatic sprinkler systems, where water flows only through individual sprinklers that have activated close to the heat source, deluge systems are designed to “surround and drown” an entire zone to prevent the spread of fire in hazardous environments.
The Reliable® TNL280 pendent nozzle has been specifically designed to provide an extended coverage nozzle suitable for use in vehicle tunnels. Learn more about the nozzle in our case study.
