Product information „F-500 WD DD continuous pressure water extinguisher 3L (frost-proof)“

Please refer to our information centre on the topic of "How to extinguish lithium-ion batteries" at the following link: https://www.lion-care.com/wie-loescht-man-lithium-ionen-akkus

Extinguishing fires involving lithium-ion batteries will become an increasingly greater challenge in the future. The fire extinguisher is particularly suitable for fires involving plastic, rubber and batteries and can be operated by a single person. It is characterised by its exceptional serviceability and environmental friendliness.

Please note: No maintenance sticker is attached, included or available to order!

Compact fire extinguisher

The F-500 WD 3 DD fire extinguisher from Neuruppin has a capacity of 3 litres. This allows a spray time of approx. 15 seconds with a spray range of 5 - 6 m. The fire extinguisher has external dimensions of 445 x 225 x 225 mm and weighs 6.2 kg.

The fire extinguisher is also available in 6 litre size.

Easy to use

The environmentally friendly extinguishing agent, which is frost-protected down to -30 °C, can attack the fire quickly and effectively. It consists mainly of water and the fluorine-free additive F-500 Encapsulator Agent. F-500 encapsulates and suffocates fuels and combustible gases.

The proven constant pressure technology with galvanised brass valve, test valve and pressure gauge and its robust construction Made in Germany guarantee a long service life. An overpressure protection mechanism provides additional safety.

Versatile application

The fire extinguisher is specially designed for use on burning lithium-ion batteries, rubber tyres or plastics. It is already in use in the following areas, among others :

Offices & authorities
Car dealerships
Battery production
Firefighting for a wide variety of materials, especially plastics, rubber, wood, lithium-ion batteries, cars
Chemical factories
Printing works
Electric charging stations
Trade fairs & congresses
Car parks & garages
Recycling plants & landfills
Places of assembly

Further special advantages of the Neuruppin F-500 WD 3 DD fire extinguisher

Frost-protected, can be used down to -30 °C
Very strong cooling effect due to earlier energy release into the extinguishing water (phase change begins at approx. 70°C)
Reduced surface tension of the extinguishing agent improves the extinguishing effect
Can be used on electrical equipment up to 1,000 V at a safety distance of 1 m

F-500 EA extinguishing agent additive – proven firefighting

F-500 EA is an innovative, environmentally friendly and forward-looking multifunctional extinguishing agent. It has been tested and approved and has no hazardous properties according to the Chemicals Act. Thanks to its combined extinguishing properties, it is extremely effective as an active extinguishing agent additive and is ideal for fighting fires involving solid organic combustible materials, polar and non-polar combustible liquids, combustible light metals, burning fats and burning and reacting lithium-ion batteries.

F-500 EA as a multifunctional extinguishing agent additive to water is successfully suitable for 98% of all fires and also has a shelf life of 15 years when stored under the recommended conditions.

F-500 EA is already in use for firefighting at companies such as RWE, BMW, Tesla, Liebherr, Stihl, Bosch and many others.

Neuruppin fire extinguishers – the highest standards for the protection of people and property

The success story began back in 1905 with the start of production at the fire extinguisher factory on Lake Neuruppin. For over 100 years, fire extinguishers from Neuruppin have set the standard for preventive fire protection.

The fire protection products are manufactured in Germany in accordance with the highest European regulations. This guarantees the highest quality. In addition, production is ISO 9001:2008 certified and is regularly monitored by various testing organisations.

Future-oriented

Lithium-ion batteries will become indispensable in all industrial and, increasingly, private applications in the coming years. However, if used improperly, the batteries can pose a potential hazard that should not be underestimated during manufacture, storage and transport. By purchasing a suitable fire extinguisher, you can protect yourself from the outset against major financial losses that could result from battery fires, for example.

FAQ

+ - What fire rating do lithium-ion batteries have?

Lithium-ion batteries are not currently assigned to any specific fire class. These batteries consist of various solid and liquid components, which makes a specific classification difficult. Focusing solely on, for example, fire class D is not effective.

+ - What testing procedures are used for fire extinguishers designed for lithium-ion batteries?

There are currently no specific, standardized testing procedures that conclusively prove suitability. All systems sold to us have been tested for suitability through the manufacturers’ internal tests and/or, in some cases, verified by external laboratories. Where clear statements regarding suitability (e.g., maximum energy density) are available, these are included in the product description. Please contact us if you have any doubts or questions.

+ - How do the different types of extinguishing agents in fire extinguishers differ?

In most cases, this involves water with various additives. Bavaria’s Water Glue is a gel that adheres exceptionally well to surfaces and also ensures that the areas treated with the gel cannot ignite. The systems from Gloria and Neuruppin consist of water with an extinguishing agent additive (Imprex-C or F500-EA) that alters the properties of the water. These additives change the surface tension of the water, improve penetration depth, and enhance the water’s cooling effect. LithiumX from Bavaria is an aqueous dispersion in which natural silicon crystals are suspended in an aqueous solution. When sprayed onto the burning material, the water evaporates and the microscopic silicon flakes swell and fuse into an impermeable barrier layer. This isolates the fire, and the thermal radiation above the barrier layer immediately drops below 100°C. These systems are also marketed under the alternative designation “AVD.” PyroBubbles: PyroBubbles are small glass beads. In the event of a fire, the granules melt and form a closed, thermally insulating layer around the fire source, thereby depriving it of oxygen. Combustible reaction gases are reduced thanks to the pores in the beads. The high specific heat capacity absorbs thermal energy, and the temperature is lowered due to the cooling effect. Furthermore, combustible material is shielded by the low thermal conductivity. Please note: Active fire suppression with PyroBubbles requires a specific fire protection design.
