Safe outdoor storage for lithium-ion batteries

The outdoor storage of lithium-ion batteries poses many challenges for workplaces who rely on these efficient energy sources. From heat and sunlight affecting the safety of the battery to incompatible substances and the unpredictability of climatic conditions, it’s vital that cells are stored in a way that minimises the risk of lithium-ion battery fires, impact damage and flammable electrolyte leaks.

Battery fire risk controls

Controlling emerging risks means developing stores that go above and beyond the standard options for dangerous goods storage. The Storemasta range of lithium battery outdoor storage includes a wide range of safety features including hazardous area rated HVAC systems, intrinsically safe electrical for charging, an over temperature indicator to ensure anomalies are monitored, and a visual and auditory alarm system.

Safe lithium-ion battery charging

Battery recharging in the outdoor environment is now easier with the Storemasta Outdoor Lithium-ion Battery Store. These Australian designed and made Outdoor Battery Stores come with 6 heavy duty, weatherproof charging outlets and IP 66 rated plugs to ensure safe battery charging in a cool, dry environment.

FAQs

What class of dangerous goods are lithium-ion batteries?

Lithium-ion batteries fall into the Class 9 Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods. This varied class includes other substances and articles such as air bag inflators, whie asbestos, dry ice and magnetised materials. You can find your class of dangerous goods on your safety data sheet.

Why do lithium batteries require dedicated storage?

Due to the volatility and sensitivity of lithium-ion batteries, specific storage and handling procedures must be maintained to reduce the likelihood and impact of a battery fire. Storemasta's Battery Management solutions include indoor Battery Charging Cabinets, Transport Units and the Outdoor Battery Store. These all provide multiple controls to ensure a stable, safe environment for storage.

Are there charging points in Outdoor Lithium-ion Battery Stores?

Yes, there are a small number of charging points in the Storemasta Outdoor Lithium-ion Battery Stores so you can safely charge your cells, as well as store them safely.

What hazards are associated with outdoor battery storage?

Due to the sensitivity of cells and the harshness of the outdoor environment, a cool, dry store that reduces the risk of ignition is ideal for Li-ion batteries.

How do Battery Stores reduce fire risk?

The outdoor battery stores manufactured by Storemasta provide hazardous area rated HVAC systems for temperature-controlled storage, in addition to a fire suppression system and alarm system. This, along with a range of additional controls, not only prevents battery fires by providing optimum storage conditions - but it also has a monitored suppression system in place to minimise the impact of a potential fire.
