This guide examines how Li-ion Tamer® advanced detection technology can reduce insurance risk and liability with Li-ion BESSs while eliminating costly false positives and adding a layer of remote system monitoring. This new approach to fire safety can help protect insurance companies against probable maximum loss (PML) with greater confidence.
RISCAuthority and the Fire Protection Association (FPA) has published a need-to-know guide outlining the hazards and risk control recommendations for battery energy storage systems (BESS). Recommendations to minimize the risk or consequences of BESS fires include installation of battery sensor and gas detection technology.
Li-ion Tamer will be attending Energy Taiwan from October 18-20, 2023 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center Hall 1. During the same week, the Li-ion Tamer team will be attending Lithium SAFE: Battery Safety Workshop 2023 which is being held from October 17-19, 2023 in Greenville, South Carolina.
To address safety concerns across the spectrum of people involved in EV manufacturing, transport and use—from drivers to EV plant workers to first responders and others—Honeywell (Nasdaq: HON) and Li-ion Tamer have created a number of ready-now solutions to not only protect individuals and assets, but also to help detect the risk of battery fires sooner.
FM Global recently updated its Property Loss Prevention Datasheet 5-33 which provides guidance on the design, installation, and maintenance of lithium-ion battery systems. The datasheet covers various aspects of fire protection, electrical safety, and thermal management for these systems. Li-ion Tamer is an industry leading provider of off-gas detection systems.

The UL 9540A test method continues to set the standard for battery energy storage safety testing. The method quickly answers questions regarding the ability for a lithium-ion battery energy storage system (ESS) to deal with thermal runaway.
Lithium ion battery failure follows four primary stages, which are initial abuse, off-gas generation, smoke generation, and fire propagation. Both the initial abuse and off-gas generation stages fall within what’s called the “preventative region”.
