Product information „Fingerhuth fire containment blanket / extinguishing blanket H-TYPE FFZ 7 x 7 m“

1. Brief Overview

The Fingerhuth fire containment blanket H-TYPE (hereinafter also referred to synonymously as an 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 spread of smoke and toxic gases, lower the temperature, and limit explosions under the blanket.

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

Please note: In general usage, the term “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 & Operating Conditions

  • Fire containment and enclosure of fires or fire sources involving lithium-ion batteries

  • Suitable, among other things, for:

    • (Electric) vehicles such as e-scooters and industrial trucks

    • Areas of use: e.g. auto repair shops, garages, charging stations, and warehouse logistics
  • Use as a heat shield and for the controlled containment of battery fires:

    • Containment of flames

    • Reduction of smoke and gas emissions

    • Limitation of the ambient temperature

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

3. Technical Data

  • Non-combustible according to 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 or significantly contained within a short time
  • To support sufficient cooling (below approx. 100 °C), the blanket should remain on the object as long as possible

Important notes:

  • After removing the blanket, check that no reignition occurs – even individual battery cells can react again after a delay
  • If possible, always use personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • In the event of fires, the fire brigade should always be called

Storage / Safekeeping:

  • Store the blanket in the trolley
  • Store in a dry place; do not place any loads directly on the blanket

6. Conclusion

The fire containment blanket H-TYPE is designed for the enclosure and limitation of fires related to lithium-ion batteries. Thanks to its heat-resistant glass fabric with silicone coating, tested temperature resistance, and electrical insulating effect, it supports controlled burn-off behavior and the reduction of smoke and gas release.
