Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion (AVD) is a revolutionary new extinguishing agent that uses fixed and portable delivery techniques to effectively combat lithium-ion battery fires. Lithium battery failure can be caused by physical impact or penetration, overheating, short circuits, internal cell failure and manufacturing defects resulting in a thermal runaway. With lithium batteries being used in a wide range of technologies from e-transportation to energy storage, there is an increased risk of high temperature lithium battery fires as part of your fire safety strategy.
HOW IT WORKS: AVD is applied as a mist dispersion. The water content suppresses the flames and cools adjacent cells. See it in action. Click Here!
As the water cools and evaporates, AVD forms a film over the cells & suppresses as follows:
- Isolating the fuel source
- Reduces Thermal propagation
- Vermiculite encapsulates
- Acts as an oxygen barrier
- Preventing re-ignition
The consequences of lithium battery fires are severe, so having the right precautions in place is critical.
AVD fire extinguishers offer a unique solution to effectively suppress and extinguish lithium battery fires across a wide range of applications.
