Liquid Cooling & Fire Protection

Thermal Management & Fire Protection

The pack liquid-cooling system uses zoned cooling, each zone with its own circuit, ensuring even pack temperature and higher pack efficiency; fire protection is offered in two PACK-level schemes (optional).

35℃
Cell temperature control Cell Temperature

Thermal management keeps cells within 35 °C for optimum operation.

Cell ΔT Cell ΔT

Cell ΔT within a cluster stays below 3 °C for better consistency and longer life.

Zoned Liquid Cooling · All-Weather Control

Zoned Liquid Cooling

The thermal system consists of one inverter-driven liquid cooling unit and its piping: when cells run hot, cooler medium is supplied to remove heat; when too cold, warmer medium raises cell temperature, keeping cells in their optimum range.

  • Zoned cooling Modules are divided into multiple independent cooling zones
  • Independent circuits Each zone has its own coolant loop for tighter control
  • Variable frequency Cooling delivered on demand to save energy
  • Uniform temperature Even temperature across the whole pack

Fire Scheme 1 · With Host Detection

SCHEME 1 · WITH HOST DETECTION

A five-in-one detector monitors H₂/CO/VOC concentration, smoke and temperature, triggering a non-pressurized perfluorohexanone unit that suppresses fire through piping and nozzles.

Detection H₂ · CO · VOC · smoke · temperature
Extinguishing agent Perfluorohexanone (non-pressurized)
 

Fire Scheme 2 · Independent Type

SCHEME 2 · INDEPENDENT TYPE

Independent perfluorohexanone inside the PACK protects the modules; during thermal runaway it spreads across the enclosure faster and isolates air — safer, cleaner and more efficient than alkane or water-based agents.

Installation Independent type inside PACK
Extinguishing agent Liquid perfluorohexanone
