Introducing Justrite's Lithium-Ion Battery
Charging Cabinet with Advanced ChargeGuard™ Safety Technology
DEERFIELD, Ill., May 16, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- In response to the critical need for safe
storage and charging of lithium-ion batteries, Justrite announces
the launch of its state-of-the-art Lithium-Ion Battery Charging
Cabinet. Featuring the innovative 9-Layer ChargeGuard™ Containment
System, this cutting-edge cabinet is engineered to prevent
catastrophic losses due to battery fires and thermal runaway.
The 9-Layer ChargeGuard Containment System features
double-wall welded steel construction, vented door panels, and
reinforced steel door latch plates to withstand explosions and
secure the enclosure. It also includes double-layer wire-mesh flame
arrestors, an insulating air gap, and door hinge flame guards to
trap heat and flames inside.
Additionally, it integrates spring-loaded dampers, a unique
filtration system, and heat-activated expanding door seals to
address the release of toxic smoke and gases. The crossflow
fan ventilation maintains a cool environment within the cabinet,
and its convenient benchtop design, lockable doors, and compact
footprint make it a versatile addition to any workspace.
The cabinet weighs 157 pounds and measures 24" H by 43" W
by 18" L. It includes eight charging receptacles and requires an
input power of 120VAC/60Hz. With a Total Energy Containment Rating
(TECR) of 2kWh, capacity varies based on individual battery energy
levels.
Lithium-ion batteries, which are widely used in modern
technology, pose serious fire risks, as evidenced by the over 5,000
battery fire incidents reported each year. These batteries can be
dangerously explosive, releasing highly toxic fumes, and are
notoriously difficult to extinguish once ignited. The technology
integrated into Justrite's Lithium-Ion Battery Charging
Cabinet is specifically designed to address and mitigate such
hazards by containing fires and explosions during charging and
storage.
To assist businesses in evaluating their risk associated with
lithium-ion batteries, Justrite is offering a comprehensive
Risk Assessment service. This assessment helps create customized
safety strategies designed for various work environments.
