FAQ | Lithium Safety Containers

What is PGS37-2 and why is it important for lithium batteries?

PGS37-2 is a set of safety guidelines specifically designed for the storage, handling, and transportation of lithium batteries. Adhering to the PGS37-2 standards ensures that lithium batteries are safely stored, transported, and handled, reducing the risk of fire, explosion, and other hazards associated with lithium-ion batteries. While PGS37-2 primarily focuses on lithium batteries, it also indirectly influences the design and construction of lithium safety containers to ensure they provide adequate protection.

What is a lithium safety container and why is it important?

A lithium safety container is a specialized container designed for the safe storage, transportation, or charging of lithium batteries and lithium-based energy systems. These containers are equipped with safety features to reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or other hazards associated with lithium-ion batteries. They are essential for the safe handling and storage of lithium batteries, reducing the risk of accidents or incidents.

What is the difference between PGS37-1 and PGS37-2?

PGS37-1 covers energy storage systems (ESS), while PGS37-2 focuses on the storage of movable lithium batteries, such as pallet storage, for example. Both are safety guidelines for the storage, handling, and transport of lithium batteries. PGS37-1 primarily focuses on small quantities of lithium batteries, while PGS37-2 has a broader scope and focuses on larger quantities and industrial applications. Additionally, PGS37-2 imposes stricter requirements on the safety and management of lithium batteries, including storage facilities and emergency planning.

What is the usual delivery time?

"Our standard products typically have a delivery time of 4-6 weeks. For custom-made products, it's best to contact us for the specific delivery time.

In what ways can I purchase a container?

You can purchase a container in various ways, including rental, purchase, and financial lease.

Is the exterior of the lithium safety container customizable?

Yes, the container can be customized by adding stickers, for example, or by having the container painted with your logo.

Where am I allowed to place my container?

Your container can be placed virtually anywhere, including against the façade and indoors. However, access for emergency services must always be ensured, and there should be no risk of collision. Therefore, the container can be safely placed against the façade or installed indoors.

What should I consider when placing indoors?

When placing indoors, it's important to ensure adequate ventilation for smoke and gas to exit. Additionally, it's advisable to lead a Storz fire hose to an accessible location, both indoors and outdoors. Always ensure that the container remains accessible for emergency services, such as the fire brigade.
