Lithium-Ion Risk Prevention System Wins Innovation Award at 2021 DCS
We are excited to announce that the LPG Lithium-Ion Risk Prevention System has been awarded the Data Centre Safety/Fire
Suppression Innovation of the Year at the DCS Awards.
The system is engineered to provide early-warning detection of battery failure in Lithium-Ion Energy Storage Systems (ESS)
and other applications using Lithium-Ion batteries such as UPS systems in data centers and manufacturing facilities.
Acoustic Solution Wins Innovation Award at 2020 DCS
We are excited to announce that the LPG SAPPHIRE Acoustic Nozzle has been awarded the Data Centre
Safety/Fire Suppression Innovation of the Year at the DCS Awards.
The SAPPHIRE Acoustic Nozzle is specifically designed to be used as part of the SAPPHIRE PLUS 70 bar system using Novec 1230
fire protection fluid. This solution joins the inert gas acoustic product introduced in 2017 and is fully implemented in the acoustic calculator,
a unique tool designed to model the acoustic effects in the Data Centre environment.
NEW Lithium-Ion Risk Prevention System
The LPG Lithium-Ion Risk Prevention System is designed to monitor Lithium-Ion batteries used in Energy Storage Systems; giving an early warning detection to prevent catastrophic thermal runaway. The system seeks to detect the presence of off-gases, indicating the early stages of battery cell malfunction prior to thermal runaway. The system will communicate with the battery management system, to shut down the failing batteries and may activate the suppression system to mitigate off-gas ignition, while providing local and remote alarms to inform personnel and emergency response teams.
