1 Litre Lith-ex Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Extinguisher
Product Details
Safequip Lith-Ex 1-Litre Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Extinguisher
The Safequip Lith-Ex 1-Litre Fire Extinguisher is a compact, specialised fire-safety solution designed for lithium-ion battery fires involving small electronic devices and battery packs.
It uses Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion technology, commonly known as AVD. The water-based agent cools the affected battery cells while forming a thermal-resistant film over the battery. This helps isolate the fire, limit the spread of thermal runaway and reduce the risk of re-ignition.
Its compact and portable design makes it suitable for homes, offices, workshops, laboratories and other environments where small lithium-ion batteries are charged, used or stored.

Placement and Maintenance
Position the extinguisher in an accessible and clearly marked location near areas where lithium-ion batteries are charged or stored. Inspect the pressure indicator regularly and arrange the required servicing through a qualified fire-equipment technician.
After any discharge, the extinguisher must be professionally inspected, recharged or replaced.
Important Safety Information
Only use the extinguisher if it is safe to do so and you have a clear escape route. Follow the instructions printed on the extinguisher. For a large, rapidly spreading or electric-vehicle traction-battery fire, evacuate the area immediately and contact emergency services. A compact 1-litre unit is not intended to replace professional emergency response.
