Product information „Fingerhuth fire containment blanket / extinguishing blanket S-TYPE Battery 4 x 5 m“

1. Brief Overview

The Fingerhuth S-TYPE Battery fire containment blanket (hereinafter also referred to synonymously as a fire extinguishing blanket or fire protection blanket) is designed for covering damaged or burning devices with lithium-ion batteries. It serves to isolate flames under the blanket as effectively as possible, reduce the temperature, and limit explosions under the blanket.

Fires involving lithium-ion batteries present a particular challenge, as conventional fire extinguishers often reach their limits here. The S-TYPE fire containment blanket offers a simple, quickly deployable way to enclose a source of fire and thus protect the surrounding area.

Please note: In general usage, the term “fire extinguishing blanket” is often used. Technically, this is a fire containment or fire protection blanket – the fire is primarily contained, not actively extinguished.

2. Areas of Application & Conditions of Use

Fire containment and enclosure of fires or sources of fire involving lithium-ion batteries
Suitable, among other things, for:
- Lithium-ion batteries
- Areas of application: e.g. auto repair shops, garages, charging stations, and warehouse logistics
Use as a heat shield and for controlled containment of battery fires:
- Containment of flames
- Limitation of the surrounding temperature

Note on the standards situation (“fire extinguishing blanket”):
The European standard DIN EN 1869:2019-10 refers to fire extinguishing blankets for grease and cooking oil fires (deep-frying fats up to 3 l). The PREMIUM fire containment hood offered here is not certified according to this standard and is not intended for cooking oil and cooking fat fires. Its intended use is the containment or limitation of Li-ion battery fires.

3. Technical Data

4. Approvals & Safety Features

Compliant with DIN SPEC 91489 (fire containment blankets for lithium-ion batteries)

Non-combustible in accordance with DIN EN 13501 (A2)

High electrical resistance (DIN 54345-1)

5. Notes on Use & Operation

Basic principle of application:

The blanket is spread out using the handles and carefully placed over the burning or endangered object by 2 people
Depending on the fire load, the fire is usually smothered within a short time or significantly contained
To support sufficient cooling (below approx. 100 °C), the blanket should remain on the object for as long as possible

Important notes:

After removing the blanket, check that no re-ignition occurs – even individual battery cells may react again after a delay
If possible, always use personal protective equipment (PPE)
In the event of fires, the fire department should always be called in

Storage / Keeping:

Store the blanket in the trolley or in a PVC insert bag
Store in a dry place; do not place loads directly on the blanket

6. Conclusion

The S-TYPE fire containment blanket is designed for the enclosure and limitation of fires related to lithium-ion batteries. Thanks to its heat-resistant silicate fabric with vermiculite coating, tested temperature resistance, and electrical insulation effect, it supports controlled burn-off behavior.
