DESCRIPTION: Conventional Extinguishing Agents like water, powder, and foam often fall short when faced with Lithium-Ion Battery fires, frequently leading to re-ignition. To combat this issue, Safe-Quip, in partnership with AVD Lith-Ex, introduces a groundbreaking solution: Aqueous Vermiculite Dispersion (AVD). AVD represents a revolutionary fire extinguishing agent developed in response to the growing demand for effective Lithium-Ion Battery fire solutions. It consists of naturally occurring vermiculite combined with water, delivering superior performance compared to traditional agents. AVD is applied as a mist composed of fine water droplets, Containing vermiculite platelets. Upon contact with the burning fuel, AVD suppresses flames and cools the fuel source instantly, bringing the fire under control. As the mist evaporates, vermiculite platelets overlap and bind together, forming a barrier film that extinguishes Safe-Quip, a leading manufacturer and distributor of fire safety solutions, launches South Africa's SANS 1910-2022 Approved Lithium-Ion Battery fire extinguisher range.
