Description

Gas detection system that detects the venting of battery electrolyte solvent vapours (off-gassing phase) that occurs early in the failure mode of lithium-ion batteries (LIB).

Designed to be easy to install and configure, consisting of several components: sensors, hub, power switch, network switch, controller.

Features and benefits:

  • Early warning of lithium-ion battery failures - enables thermal runaway prevention with proper mitigating actions.
  • Single cell failure detection without mechanical or electrical contact to the cells.
  • Scalable deployment for cost effective protection of a wide range of battery storage systems.
  • Temperature and humidity monitoring at each sensing node.
  • Extended product lifetime.
  • Calibration-free product with highly reliable output signal.
  • Compatible with all lithium-ion battery form factors and chemistries.
  • Easy installation.
  • Independent and redundant perspective on battery health.
  • Auto diagnostic capabilities.
  • Reduction/ removal of false positive signals.
  • Communication protocols including relays and Modbus serial, that can connect to the building management system (BMS) or other control systems.
  • UKCA marked.
