Conventional fire protection measures are insufficient in the event of an EV fire. LOXXER develops and delivers solutions that are specifically tested for lithium-ion batteries, from the first intervention to the controlled inundation of a complete vehicle.
The LOXXER immersion container and fire suppression blankets are specifically developed and tested for managing lithium-ion fires in electric and hybrid vehicles.
Relevant LOXXER products comply with applicable standards and guidelines, including ADR certification for the transport box and PGS 37 for storage containers.
From compact extinguishing kits for the workshop to large immersion containers for a dealer or emergency service site. LOXXER covers the entire chain.
With the fire suppression blankets and lithium extinguishing kits, staff can respond immediately to an incident, even before the fire department arrives.
The submersion container is a waterproof solution for safely extinguishing, cooling, and transporting electric and hybrid vehicles after an incident. By fully submerging the vehicle, battery temperature is stabilized and the risk of re-ignition is prevented.
The shelving container is a space-efficient solution for the safe and organized storage of lithium-ion batteries. Thanks to the stacked rack structure, the available floor space is optimally utilized, while batteries remain organized and quickly accessible.
The walk-in container is the versatile solution for safely storing lithium-ion batteries of various sizes, larger equipment, or even a small electric vehicle, all under one roof. Thanks to advanced fire protection systems and high fire resistance, the unit offers optimal safety for long-term storage.
The LOXXER lithium fire kit is intended for first intervention by trained workshop or dealer personnel. The kit includes a containment bag with flame protector, a fire extinguisher, and gloves. The E-Powershield construction is resistant up to 1,100 °C. The kit is available in Medium and XL and is suitable as a supplement to the broader fire safety equipment in the workplace.
For the storage of larger quantities of lithium-ion batteries or vehicles with damaged batteries, guidelines such as PGS 37 apply. LOXXER containers for battery storage have been developed in accordance with the PGS 37 guideline. We always advise consulting the local fire department or a certified safety advisor for the specific situation at your location.
A fire suppression blanket does not fully extinguish the fire, but it limits the spread of flames and significantly slows down thermal runaway. This gives bystanders the chance to evacuate and emergency services the time to arrive on site with specialized equipment. For definitive extinguishing and cooling, inundation via a submersion container is generally necessary.
For a fully electric vehicle, the fire suppression blanket of 5 x 6 m is the recommended choice. This blanket can withstand temperatures up to 1,750 °C, does not produce harmful fumes, and limits flame spread. The blanket completely covers the vehicle, providing time for further intervention or waiting for specialized emergency services.
A submersion container allows an electric or hybrid vehicle to be fully submerged in water. This is the most effective way to manage a lithium-ion fire in a vehicle and prevent re-ignition. The LOXXER submersion container has a volume of 20 m³ (6,000 x 2,300 x 1,500 mm), is equipped with tie-down eyes for securing the vehicle, and can be fitted with a cover tarp, connections for extinguishing and cooling systems, and signaling.
LOXXER advises and delivers the right combination of products for your specific situation. Whether it's a dealer storage, a workshop, or an intervention vehicle for the fire department.
