Description

Closed battery modules form the basis of modern energy storage solutions and are used in a variety of areas, such as electric vehicles, home storage systems or industrial energy storage systems. However, a battery module fire can quickly lead to dangerous damage. This is where the VLITEX fire blanket closed battery modules offer the ideal solution.

Effective protection for closed battery modules

The VLITEX fire blanket Closed battery module was specially developed to prevent the spread of fires in closed battery modules. Made from robust silica fibers and coated with vermiculite, it can withstand temperatures up to 1,800 °C. This high temperature resistance makes it the ideal choice for sensitive applications.

The blanket is placed over closed battery modules as a precautionary measure and provides effective insulation from flames in the event of a fire. This prevents the fire from spreading and protects the surrounding area. Within a few seconds, it provides a crucial safety barrier that minimizes damage and creates valuable time for further measures.

Areas of application and properties

The VLITEX fire blanket closed battery modules are particularly suitable for

  • Workshops
  • Car dealerships
  • Industrial companies

With a weight of approx. 14 kg and a size of 3.0 m x 4.0 m, the ceiling is compact, handy and quickly ready for use - ideal for daily use in demanding environments.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between fire blankets made of silica and special glass fiber fabric2025-01-10T07:46:25+01:00

Silicone-coated glass fiber fabric

This material consists of fine glass fibers that are known for their high tensile strength, temperature resistance and good insulating properties. The silicone coating improves the fire-retardant properties, provides thermal insulation and increases resistance to weathering, UV radiation and chemical influences.

Silica (silicon dioxide)

Silica fiber fabric consists of a high proportion of pure silicon dioxide and is characterized by an even higher temperature resistance. It retains its strength and flexibility even at extremely high temperatures and is chemically inert, meaning that it does not react with most chemicals.

Temperature resistance

Silicone-coated glass fiber fabric, such as in the VLITEX PREMIUM, can withstand temperatures of up to 1,000 °C and even 1,750 °C for short periods. Silica fiber fabric is more heat-resistant and can withstand temperatures of up to 1,800 °C (VLITEX SUPERIOR PRO).

Costs

fire blankets made of silica are more expensive, as the production of pure silica fibers is more complex. In contrast, ceilings made of silicone-coated glass fiber fabric are more cost-efficient.

Reusability

Special glass fiber ceilings can be used several times depending on the fire load. Silica ceilings, on the other hand, are intended for single use, as their fibers shrink when exposed to heat.

Why is the VLITEX fire blanket SUPERIOR only suitable for single use?2025-01-09T22:06:16+01:00

The VLITEX fire blanket SUPERIOR is made of high-quality silica glass fiber fabric that has been specially developed for use in extreme temperatures. On contact with intense heat, such as that generated by a burning vehicle, the silica fiber reacts by contracting strongly. This thermal reaction impairs the structure and effectiveness of the blanket, which is why it should not be used again after a fire.

For maximum safety and efficiency, we recommend one-time use to ensure that the blanket fulfills its full protective function.
