Product information „PRIOCOVER Mobile fire protection cover – incl. cable bulkhead“
In warehouses where lithium-ion rechargeable batteries are stored, damaged cells can pose a high risk to employees and to the operating and storage technology. Explosive fires caused by batteries ("thermal runaway") are difficult to control. In its "General Safety Rules for Lithium Batteries (VdS 3103: 2019-06)", VdS recommends that damaged or defective lithium batteries be removed immediately from storage and production areas and temporarily stored at a safe distance or in a fire-protected area. This PRIOCOVER slip-on cover from PIORIT is a simple and portable solution for active and passive fire protection of lithium-ion batteries. If you are interested, please contact us for a customised quote.
Size, structure and function of the fire protection cover
The PRIOCOVER mobile fire protection cover has external dimensions of 1005 x 1390 x 900 mm and internal dimensions of 908 x 1300 x 900 mm (height x width x depth). It weighs 400 kg. Special sizes are also available on request.
The housing is made of a non-combustible panel material with a wall thickness of 42 mm. It features a solid construction, high stability and high surface hardness. It has a CPL (continuous pressure laminate) surface, in which the panel layers are pressed under constant pressure and temperature. The housing is light grey, similar to RAL 7035. In addition
,
the fire protection cover is recyclable and free of harmful substances.
Crane eyes on the sides make it possible to lift the housing using round slings and a forklift truck. When in use, the fire protection cover is simply placed over loaded Euro pallets, drip trays or mesh boxes.
For storage, the lithium-ion batteries/rechargeable batteries can remain on the pallet, avoiding the need for time-consuming reloading or rearranging. Damaged batteries can also be safely protected from further damage or access until they are collected or disposed of.
Optionally, a fitting set can be attached to the top to direct cooling water into the container and/or a cable bulkhead for safe charging of the batteries. This is the version with cable bulkhead.
A lifting set consisting of 2 round slings and 4 carabiners and a floor drip tray to collect any leaks is also available.
Certification and guidelines
The surface material is non-flammable according to classification A2 – s1, d0. The housing is suitable for manufacturing a fire resistance of 90 minutes. It has been tested in accordance with European standards (EN) and has a Green Building Declaration in accordance with LEED and DGNB.
The manufacturer
PRIORIT AG, based in Hanau, has been synonymous with innovative structural fire protection solutions for 20 years. Its product range extends from products for the structural protection of escape and rescue routes to solutions for tunnel construction and the protection of IT systems and storage of hazardous materials.
PRIORIT manufactures fire-resistant components with decorative surfaces based on non-combustible building materials, thus offering the possibility of harmonising safety and design aspects.
Future-oriented
Lithium-ion batteries will become indispensable in all industrial 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 this mobile fire protection cover, you can protect yourself against major financial losses right from the start.

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.
