vv b Wind Power Fire Protection

Nu, new energy is developing rapidly, and fire protection in the field of new energy will be the focus, all kinds of enterprises around the world have begun to focus on developing renewable energy products, the products include lithium batteries, lithium-ion battery packs, solar panel, inverter, energy storage container, UPS power, strömförsörjning, portable power station, wind power generator, electric vehicle, charging pile, hydrogen energy, nuclear energy etc.

For short, the main industries of renewable energy can be summarized as “wind, solar, storage and vehicle”, which means “vindkraft”, “photovoltaic”, “energilagring” och “fordon”, vindkraft, photovoltaic and energy storage belong to power generation field, and vehicles belong to consumption field.

The main equipment of the wind power industry is a wind turbine, the cost of the wind turbine is not only high, but also a difficulty in fire protection.
because its cost is very expensive and its internal space is very limited, people usually use ABC dry chemical powder fire extinguishers and aerosol fire extinguishers for this equipment, dry chemical powder is installed on the ceiling of the wind turbine, to total flood the room, and aerosol system to protect the electrical cabinets in the tower drum and foundation.

Photovoltaic Fire Protection

As for photovoltaic, mainly consists of solar batteries, controllers, panels, junction boxes, combiner boxes, växelriktare, etc, solar panels and inverters are the main components that need fire protection, because they often get hot, and they are electrical components.

According to our observation and discovery, an aerosol fire extinguishing system is the best choice for photovoltaic solar energy.

Energy Storage Fire Protection

Energy storage has only become popular in recent years, there are many upstream and downstream products involved, till exempel, mining equipment for lithium, nickel, cobalt, and other mineral resources, Battery and battery materials, new energy vehicles, laddningshögar, energy storage container system, UPS power, micro module cabinet.

The energy storage system has high requirements for fire extinguishing agents, so it is difficult to choose an ideal fire extinguisher. According to the research of foreign research institutions, the aerosol, the heptafluoropropane and the NYHET 1230 systems are better choices. Aerosols are more used in small spaces, and heptafluoropropane and FK5112 are more used in large spaces.

Fire Protection for Electric Vehicles and Electric Vehicle Related Products

As for vehicles, It is a consumer products, there are many new energy consumer products, such as charging piles, new energy vehicles, portable power stations, on-grid and off-grid solar systems, och så vidare, all these products are also electrical equipment, they usually need fire protection to avoid from getting thermal runaway.

Selection of Different Fire Protection Systems

För närvarande, the fire extinguishing systems that can be used in the new energy industry are mainly aerosol, heptafluoropropane, and NOVEC 1230. the advantages of aerosols are non-pressure storage, no need for pipe network installation, and have high safety factor, heptafluoropropane has the advantage of high fire extinguishing efficiency, the advantage of NOVEC 1230 is that it is more environmentally friendly than FM200, and the fire extinguishing efficiency is also very good.

The usual choices are:

• For small spaces, such as an electrical cabinet, lithium battery, meter box, charging power station, inverter, etc, use an aerosol system.
• For bigger spaces, such as energy storage rooms, gruvutrustning, kraftgenereringsrum, etc, use the FM200 system or NOVEC 1230 systemet.
• For some places were not able to use FM200, NYHET 1230, and aerosol, so we chose to use the ABC dry chemical powder system instead.

Naturligtvis, the specific situation needs to be analyzed according to the actual installation environment, Fire protection is not an easy task, which involves budget, design, construction, och installation, Därför, we need to select appropriate fire extinguishing products according to the actual situation.

Green Renewable Energy and Fire Protection

Green renewable energy is the trend of future development, World famous companies are vigorously deploying new energy businesses, and business scope includes power generation equipment, power transformation and distribution equipment, brandskydd, energilagring, etc, Who can enter the new energy bureau first, who can benefit earlier.

Energy storage fire protection is an industry combining fire protection and new energy, and it is a wind vane at present all around the world.

The lithium battery in the energy storage container needs to be well protected, and an appropriate fire extinguishing agent needs to be selected, Extinguishing agents in the field of energy storage should not be randomly selected; They should not only be able to extinguish fire but also not damage lithium batteries and pollute the environment.

För närvarande, the vast majority of fire extinguishing systems on the market are not suitable for the protection of new energy products, especially lithium batteries in the field of energy storage. Through research, it is found that most fire extinguishing systems fail to successfully extinguish the fire in lithium batteries and their packs and containers.

Selection and Types of Energy Storage Fire Extinguishing Systems

After continuous search and exploration, new energy companies and research institutions have found that 3 types of fire extinguishing systems can be used as energy storage fire protection solutions: one is aerosol fire suppression system, the second gas of HFC-227ea or NOVEC 1230 systemet, the last is ABC dry chemical systems.

Aerosol systems normally be installed inside the lithium batteries pack, to protect each pack one by one; HFC-227ea/NOVEC 1230 gas-based and ABC dry chemical-based systems are normally installed in the energy storage containers, together with wiring with fire alarm systems and pipes.

In fact, in the field of new energy (renewable industry), the best fire protection solution is the aerosol system and the piping HFC-227ea gas (or NOVEC 1230 gas) fire alarms. fire alarms are used to detect fire and start the fire extinguishing system automatically, HFC-227ea or NOVEC 1230 gas system is used to suppress fire in larger container space, and aerosol fire extinguishers are used to protect the lithium battery, battery pack, and inverters.

HFC-277ea or NOVEC 1230 is decided as per the specific installation environment, The specific installation process needs to be based on the layout drawings provided by the customer, The format of the drawing offered is PDF or DWG; for aerosols, because it has no requirements for the installation environment, So recommend the LITHIUM-ION BATTERY SUPPRESSION EXTINGUISHER.
