The XL model has external dimensions of 2045 x 1194 x 612 mm (height x width x depth). The internal dimensions listed above refer to the available storage space (height x width x depth). The empty weight is 530 kg with a maximum internal cabinet volume of 0.95 m³. The cabinet can be driven under with a pallet truck for better handling.

54 Ah approved per stored cell

The maximum capacity of the individual lithium-ion cells that may be stored in the cabinet is 54 Ah. Please note that the 54 Ah does not refer to the entire battery, as each battery consists of several cells. This value covers the majority of batteries used today. Each storage level has a load capacity of 75 kg. The floor drip tray at the bottom of the cabinet has a volume of 22 liters. A video of the fire test carried out can be found in the "Videos" tab.

Two storage areas per storage level

Inside the Düperthal BATTERY standard line XL safety storage cabinet, the individual storage levels are divided into two separate storage areas. This makes it possible to physically separate the different batteries within the cabinet and thus significantly increase the level of safety.

Düperthal BATTERY standard line XL battery cabinet - safety at the highest level

The safe storage of Li-ion batteries was the top priority for Düperthal when developing this cabinet. The various safety mechanisms that protect the environment in the event of a battery fire or even a battery explosion are correspondingly comprehensive and sophisticated.

Fire resistance F90 / Type 90 - 90-minute protection in the event of fire

If a Li-ion battery catches fire, the environment must be reliably protected from the resulting hazards. The battery safety cabinets from Düperthal, such as the Düperthal BATTERY standard line XL safety cabinet presented here, have an F90 / type 90 fire resistance rating, i.e. they offer 90 minutes of protection before the burning batteries cause damage to the environment. Within these 90 minutes, the surrounding area can be evacuated, initial countermeasures can be taken with suitable battery fire extinguishers and extinguishing agents and the fire department can be called to ensure optimum safety.

Double protection - for the environment and for the stored lithium-ion batteries

Unlike many other manufacturers of safety storage cabinets, the Düperthal models are subjected to a double fire protection test. The F90 fire resistance rating applies both from the inside to the outside and from the outside to the inside. This means that the environment is protected if the batteries catch fire (protection from the inside out), but the Li-ion batteries are also protected if a fire breaks out around the safety storage cabinet (protection from the outside in).

Intelligent locking mechanisms for the cabinet doors

The door remains open in any position, but a cylinder lock with permanent locking can lock the hinged door. At a temperature of approx. 50°C in the cabinet, the thermal triggering of the automatic door closure ensures that the door closes automatically. A backdraft lock ensures that the door can no longer be opened. The fire department can open the doors using an emergency release on the top of the cabinet.

Exhaust air openings close automatically from the outside in the event of a fire

There is an NW110 exhaust air pipe with NW75 adapter on the cabinet. In the event of a fire outside the cabinet, the exhaust air openings are closed by the safety technology at a room temperature of approx. 70°C. Control cut-outs are incorporated above the false ceiling, which change to red when the exhaust air openings are closed. In the event of a fire inside, the smoke gases are "compressed" in the cabinet and can be discharged to the outside via the exhaust air connection. Please note that the connection to the exhaust air and the materials required for this are not included in the scope of delivery/service. The connection to the exhaust air must be provided by the customer.

Drip trays retain hazardous liquids

There is a floor drip tray at the bottom of the battery cabinet that can collect any leaking liquids. Especially when batteries are defective, environmentally hazardous liquids can leak out. Li-ion batteries contain electrolytes that pose a risk to people and the environment. The drip tray integrated in the cabinet effectively retains this.

Level compensation ensures ideal stability

The adjustable feet of the Düperthal BATTERY standard line XL safety storage cabinet are adjustable and enable level compensation. This ensures that the battery cabinet stands perfectly on virtually any surface.

Customization and further equipment available

Düperthal offers a wide range of customization options and accessories for the Battery-Line safety storage cabinets so that they can be perfectly adapted to your company's needs.

Cabinet doors available in other colors

The door is made of sheet steel in the color PANTONE 389 C (yellow-green). Other colors are available on request. This allows the cabinets to be optimally integrated into your company.

Temperature monitoring, load adapter and much more.

A Smartbox can be fitted as an option to monitor the status of the oven door. A potential-free contact can also be used to establish a connection to the fire alarm control panel. Tested pipe penetrations are also available as an option. If loads are to be stored on the enclosure roof, load adapters are available for installation to ensure that the fire resistance is not impaired.

Certification and maintenance of the battery safety cabinet

There are currently no legal regulations for the storage of lithium batteries / lithium-ion batteries. However, by purchasing this storage system, you are optimally equipped for any regulations that may arise. Lithium-ion batteries are class 9 hazardous goods.

Extensive testing in accordance with DIN / EN 14470-1

These battery cabinet systems from Düperthal are tested as safety cabinets in accordance with DIN. Type tests have been carried out by MPA/TÜV SÜD in accordance with DIN EN 14470-1 (fire resistance of safety storage cabinets for flammable liquids), DIN EN 16121 and DIN EN 16122 (test methods for determining the strength, durability and stability of storage cabinets for residential and non-residential use) and DIN 31000 loss prevention in accordance with VdS 3103:2015-06. CE marks are also available. The BATTERY line safety storage cabinets are also certified as type 90 in accordance with EN14470-1. This means that the fire resistance of the cabinets has been tested and classified for 90 minutes according to type.
