500KWh LIB pack or Modules. Or you could use portable electrical water sprayer or hang type water spray
fire extinguisher (photo 1) . The water based spray fire extinguisher could be used for fire type ABCE = solid
(A), flash point >60℃ liquid (B), gas (C), <36Kv electrical (E) fire. It was recommended to prepare water based
sprayers in the trucks.
2） Water protection sets: raincoat, galoshes, rubber gloves. Plastic rollers. Rags.
3） PPE: breathing mask, safety glass, face mask, gloves for high temperature.
4） Smoke escape: fans in wall one per 20m or portable fans in rooms. Keep gas exchange hole in trucks.
5） Gas explode tools: open condition for devices & rooms. Some devices like high or low temperature ovens
must be sealed, there was one copper film with the diameter 200mm & thickness 8um as the safety vent. The
wall should have one fan per 20m, ≥5000m3 per hour for flow rate.
6） Neutralized material: prepare 10kg Ca(OH)2 powder per 500KWh LIB pack or modules, it was used for
neutralized for release electrolyte. Because electrolyte met with water, 8% HF would be created.
7） Voltage measure. Multimeter. Please physical block the current measure function, the mistake would lead
instrument exploding.
8） People training: (a) turn on fans or portable fans for smoke escape. (b) wear the water protection sets  use
water spray fire extinguishers  dry by cloths with rubber gloves  insulated by plastic film. (c) neutralized by
Ca(OH)2 or NaOH for released electrolyte. (d) use multimeter to measure voltage. Take care of the mistake.
Fire Extinguisher Flow Chart
1） Alarm if you found the smoking or burning.
2） Wear PPE. (Breath mask, face mask. If using water, PPE should include the raincoat, galoshes, rubber
gloves).
3） Turn Off power supply in devices or power supply.
4） Use any fire extinguishers for solid material fire, the recommended sequence was water or mist water,
sand, fire extinguisher blanket, CO2, powder.
5） Smoke Escape by turn on fans or open air environment.
6） Dry and neutralize. Drying by fans, Neutralization by Ca(OH)2 powder if water was used.
Additional information
If possible, remove cell(s) from fire fighting area. If heated above 125°C, cell(s) can explode/vent. Cell is
not flammable but internal organic material will burn if the cell is incinerated.
