To mitigate these risks, industries and institutions are turning to advanced lithium ion battery cabinet solutions. These cabinets are specially designed to safeguard against internal fires, thermal runaway, and mechanical damage. Standard storage methods are often inadequate for lithium-ion technology.
NFPA mandates a minimum clearance between battery units to reduce the risk of fire propagation. Environmental Conditions: Maintain optimal temperature and humidity levels to prevent battery degradation. For instance, lithium-ion batteries perform best within a temperature range of 20°C to 25°C.
While there is not a specific OSHA standard for lithium-ion batteries, many of the OSHA general industry standards may apply, as well as the General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970). These include, but are not limited to the following standards:
UL (Underwriters Laboratories) Standards UL standards are widely recognized across North America and many other regions and set rigorous safety standards for lithium-ion batteries that focus on fire resistance, thermal stability, and electrical performance.
