Armorgard VoltHub

The VoltHub is a unique solution to safely charging Lithium-Ion batteries. Designed with an integrated fire safety system that auto-activates in an emergency, it uses a special fire suppressant designed and tested with Lithium-Ion battery fires.

The VoltHub uses a specialist system designed to suppress Lithium-Ion fires. Using the pressurised targeting system, the foam will be smother the burning battery in a cooling foam. This attacks any naked flames and burning parts by smothering them and cutting off the oxygen supply like a normal fire extinguisher.

The reason normal fire extinguishers are ineffective with Lithium-Ion batteries is that Lithium-Ion battery fires are prone to re-ignite even if completely smothered, because the chemical reaction inside the battery is not stopped.

The foam suppressant in the VoltHub contains a special formula, which is designed to neutralise the chemical reaction in a failed Li-Ion battery. This makes it almost impossible for the fire to reignite and the aftermath can be safely dealt with. Environmentally friendly, the foam suppressant has no harmful long lasting effects to humans, animals, or plant life.
