LBSA has partnered with Fireblock Lithium to integrate an advanced fire suppression solution into its battery systems, creating a new benchmark in lithium battery safety for both commercial and industrial installations.
How Fireblock Integration Works
Each Fireblock canister is installed within or adjacent to the battery rack. The system continuously monitors the internal temperature and, when a critical threshold is reached, automatically activates to disperse Fireblock’s proprietary biodegradable suppression gel. This gel rapidly smothers any potential flames or smoke without damaging nearby components or releasing harmful residues.
Automatic Detection & Response
Unlike conventional suppression systems that rely on manual triggers or external sensors, Fireblock is self-contained and autonomous. Once the battery’s internal temperature exceeds safe operational limits, the Fireblock module activates within milliseconds, delivering precise containment exactly where it’s needed.
Environmental & Safety Benefits
- Eco-friendly gel: 100% biodegradable and non-toxic, safe for indoor and outdoor use.
- Non-conductive formula: Ensures electrical safety even when deployed within live systems.
Integration with LBSA Systems
The Fireblock module is designed to complement LBSA’s Rhino IntelliFlex HV architecture, fitting directly into rack enclosures or battery cabinets. Its passive design requires no additional wiring, communication ports, or inverter connections—making it ideal for both new installations and retrofits.
Why It Matters
In the rare event of a thermal incident, Fireblock’s automatic suppression can make the difference between a safe shutdown and a catastrophic failure. This integration underscores LBSA’s commitment to safe, reliable, and future-ready energy storage solutions.
