BAUER room container - 1 storage area

for lithium-ion batteries

Technical data

Material: Steel
Outer dimensions (mm): 2 830 x 3 800 x 2 750

Product information „BAUER Raumcontainer - 1 Lagerfeld“

The BAUER room container with a storage bay is a powerful and future-proof solution for the safe, clear, and compliant storage of lithium-ion batteries. Thanks to its robust steel construction, the integrated catching tray, and the high fire protection standard, this container is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and meets the highest requirements for safety, functionality, and longevity. The container has a general building supervisory approval from the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt), Approval no. Z‑38.5‑103, and thus complies with the current building regulations regarding fire protection, static, and environmental protection. It forms a self-contained, independent fire compartment and helps companies reliably minimize risks and design operational processes safely. Since every fire protection container is an individual project solution and must consider requirements such as battery type, storage quantity, installation location, fire protection class, and technical equipment precisely, we provide you with a structured project questionnaire. Based on the questionnaire, we can present you with your individual offer. → Our project questionnaire Technical data External dimensions: Width: approx. 2,750 mm Height: approx. 2,830 mm Depth: approx. 3,800 mm Clear interior dimensions: Width: approx. 2,500 mm Height: approx. 2,200 mm Depth: approx. 3,000 mm

Construction & Equipment

The BAUER room container convinces with a stable, welded frame construction designed for permanent industrial use. - Roof, walls, and door surfaces are clad with double-skin, thermally insulated steel sandwich elements (non-combustible, building material class A2-s1 d0 according to DIN EN 13501-1) - 100 mm thick insulation layer for optimized fire protection - Floor with 6 mm glass fiber fleece, aluminum-coated - Edge protection profiles at all corners for additional impact protection - Lockable double-leaf door across the entire front - Galvanized door jambs - Rokustrip seals, expanding in the event of fire - Single-sided operability for easy handling

Lagerung & Sicherheit

The container offers a flexible and practical storage solution for a variety of applications: - 1 storage level, no fixed rack installations – maximum design freedom - Galvanized, removable grates (mesh size: 30 x 30 mm) - Load capacity: 10 kN/m² - Catchment volume: 800 liters up to the bottom edge of the grate - Tray wall thickness: 5 mm, with leak test and factory certificate - 15 mm high footplates, prepared for floor anchoring - Crane eyes for easy repositioning and placement - Integrated splash protection

Electrical & Fire Protection

For early danger and fire detection, the room container is standardly equipped with plant-technical safety features: - 1 heat detector (not explosion-protected) - Potential-free contact to external alarm forwarding - Combined alarm device (strobe light / buzzer) - Note: If the fault signal is forwarded to a fire alarm control panel (BMZ) with fire brigade interconnection, an additional compatible fire detector must be installed on-site. - Switchgear cabinet (IP65) including: - Main switch - Cabinet heater - Terminal blocks for heat detectors - Overvoltage protection

Earthing & Protective Measures

- Structural equipotential bonding to protect against electrostatic charging - External grounding connection, including test protocol (on-site grounding connection required)

Optional Accessories

The room container can be individually expanded and adapted to your requirements, e.g. with: - Sun protection roof made of trapezoidal sheet metal E35, with gutter and downpipe - Electric heater (not ex): 2 × 2.5 kW, +10°C at −15°C outside temperature - Ex-electric heater: 2 × 2 kW, +10°C at −15°C outside temperature - Semi-stationary sprinkler system - Aerosol extinguishing system - Interior lighting (not ex), 2 LED tray lights - Interior lighting for Ex-zone 2, 2 LED tray lights - Fan (not ex) - ex-fan

Color Variants

- RAL 5012 – light blue - RAL 7005 – mouse gray - RAL 9002 – gray-white

FAQ

That depends on various factors that need to be considered:

  • size of the battery(ies)
  • condition (e.g. non-critical, defective, critically defective or prototype)
  • power

Transport boxes are available in many different sizes and specifications. The packaging group for which the box is suitable is indicated for each product.

Even if the batteries are not critical, remember to protect them from shocks and to order appropriate filling material if it is not already included in the box.

Yes. Should a battery reach a critical state and cause a fire, separating the batteries will prevent the fire from spreading and multiplying.

Generally, the insulation and protection material should line all sides of the container. The batteries are stored between individual layers.

We also have containers in our program that already have the protective material integrated into the outer wall. No further protective layer is necessary here.

The technical principles for storage and transportation solutions are very similar. The transport boxes are also subjected to extensive tests in accordance with ADR (drop test, fire test, etc.) to confirm compliance with the ADR regulations. The packaging regulations are extensive and regulated by law.
There are currently no comparable regulations for storage. Nevertheless, manufacturers of storage boxes regularly carry out appropriate tests.
The right container depends on the type and size of the battery to be shipped or stored.

The transportation of batteries is subject to ADR regulations.

The number, size and weight, energy density and condition of the batteries are crucial parameters for finding a suitable transport container for lithium-ion batteries. The selection process is complex and should be carried out by appropriately trained personnel. We have a trained hazardous materials officer on our team. Please feel free to contact us.

Plastic containers are cheaper but not as durable as metal containers. They are suitable, for example, for non-critical batteries, defective batteries, prototypes and end-of-life batteries. They can be used for both storage and transportation.

Metal containers are required, for example, when dealing with critically defective batteries.

The exact packaging instructions for these cases can be found in the ADR or by consulting a certified hazardous materials specialist.

To date, there are no legal requirements for the storage of lithium-ion batteries, which does not mean that they should be stored without suitable protective measures.

It is best to check with your insurer to find out which measures they recognize as suitable in the event of a claim.

For example, a suitable box could already be recognized as spatial separation.
