After extensive research and development, we are proud to introduce the CommanderEDGE LFX Lithium-ion Battery Fire Extinguisher range exclusively at The Fire Safety Event 2024!
The range will be available to pre-order from Tuesday 7th May 2024.
NTA 8133 Certified*
While there currently isn’t a recognised BS EN3 certificate for portable fire extinguishers on the use of Lithium-ion battery fires, KIWA (one of the major global players in the TIC market) and the Royal Netherlands Standardization Institute have developed a technical guideline to test the suitability of portable fire extinguishers for Lithium-ion battery fires with medium capacities up to 600 Wh.
This publication is recognised through certification number NTA 8133.
We’re extremely proud to announce that our CommanderEDGE LFX 6ltr and 9ltr fire extinguishers are both NTA 8133 approved!
How does LFX work?
LFX is an effective fluorine-free, water-based fire extinguishing agent that is excellent at putting out the flames of a Lithium-ion battery fire.
Absorbs the heat
It has remarkable heat-absorbing properties that break down the chain reaction in thermal runaway and prevent other cells from heating.
Protects from secondary fires
LFX also protects from secondary A-class fires, and this allows the extinguisher to quickly tackle ‘peripheral’ fires that have been caused by the exploding batteries.
