As a company committed to sustainable energy supply, we place the highest value on the quality and reliability of our products. For this reason, we exclusively use high-quality lithium-ion high-voltage batteries from renowned manufacturers that are characterised by their outstanding performance and durability.
We know that every battery storage system carries a certain level of risk. Therefore, we have decided to equip our battery storage systems with additional safety components.
Battery management system
Overall system control
Comprehensive fire protection concepts
The integrated battery management system (BMS) constantly monitors the battery and switches it off in case any operating parameters are exceeded.
System control ensures that the battery storage is constantly operating in the optimal range. This system control handles, for example, thermal management at system level, monitoring, remote access, and checks of system control values.
We have implemented specific fire safety measures for both our commercial storage systems and our large-scale storage systems.
Mechanical fire protection enclosure
In addition, we have developed an innovative fire protection enclosure for the battery modules as part of a comprehensive protection concept. With its fully mechanical construction, the fire protection system by INTILION reliably and securely meets all fire protection requirements according to VDE-AR-E 2510-50.
Fire alarm system and fire suppression
Our comprehensive approach includes sensors, smoke detectors, aerosol fire extin-guishing generators, signalling devices, and a control panel to provide early warning to individuals on-site. This ensures prompt fire containment, maximising safety, and minimising potential damage.
Our commercial battery storage systems provide the best possible protection with three different safety levels, effectively preventing fires. The third safety level is a mechanical fire protection enclosure, offering additional safety features that ensure enhanced protection for the storage units and the environment. It has been specifically designed for INTILION | scalebloc and INTILION | scalestac.
Prevents fire spread by diverting the outgassing through a specially designed labyrinth system and retaining ignition sources.
The increased flow resistance compresses and oversaturates the gas making it no longer flammable in the module enclosure and therefore unable to explode.
Limits the propagation to a maximum of one module. Since no open flames can occur, a fire is safely prevented
In the event of an accident, electrolyte cannot leak nor enter the ground or wastewater
Our commercial storage INTILION | scalebloc is equipped with a fire protection system as a standard feature, regardless of its capacity. According to the regulation on the construction of operating rooms for electrical installations, there are specific fire protection requirements for battery systems. These requirements are addressed for lithium-ion batteries in the regulation VDE-AR-E 2510-50. The described tests demand that the battery system avoids cell propagation, fire, explosion, and the ejection of flying parts. Furthermore, the propagation of other modules must be prevented. With its fully mechanical construction, INTILION’s patented fire protection system reliably and securely meets these requirements.
Even though the outdoor system already provides reliable protection, we take it a step further with FLEPS – the Fire Limiter and Environmental Protection System. The fire protection enclosure of INTILION | scalebloc serves as the foundation for the innovative FLEPS, specifically developed for our INTILION | scalestac for indoor use. FLEPS prevents fire or even an explosion by feeding generated gas through a kind of labyrinth, making it no longer flammable. Additionally, FLEPS prevents electrolyte leakage out of the system in the rare event of a fire or mechanical cell damage, as it comes with an integrated containment tray as a standard feature.

We know that fire protection is highly significant when it comes to large-scale storage systems. In the development of our fire protection concepts, we consider all aspects of operating such systems. We understand that each system is unique and has different requirements, which is why we provide custom-fit solutions. Our team of experts works closely with our customers to ensure that their systems are optimally protected.
Comprises of sensors, smoke detectors, aerosol fire extinguishing generators, signalling devices and control panel
Provides early warning to individuals on-site and send signals to our service team through cloud connectivity
Due to the quick reaction and limitation, large financial damage is avoided
Limits the propagation to a maximum of one module. Since no open flames can occur, a fire is safely prevented
Our fire alarm system with fire suppression is the ideal solution for protecting battery rooms and control rooms. We rely on tested aerosol fire extinguishing generators that rapidly suppress secondary fires. With multi-sensor detectors for smoke and heat and connectivity to the central fire alarm system, reliable monitoring is ensured at all times. Upon detecting a fire, both visual and audible signalling devices are activated. In case of emergency, the fire alarm system can also be manually triggered from outside the container. The fire control panel is accessible from outside and can be quickly reached to intervene if necessary. To prevent any electrolyte from entering the environment, our containers are equipped with containment trays.
Our fire protection system for skid systems is similar to that of container solutions. In this case, each individual battery unit is equipped with its own fire alarm and suppression system. This system comprises a smoke detector, a heat detector, and aerosol fire extinguishing generators, all perfectly synchronised. The fast action of the aerosol ensures rapid containment of the fire, limiting the propagation to a single battery unit and minimising the damage. Additionally, each unit is connected to the central fire alarm system. Through our cloud connectivity, signal is immediately sent to our service team, enabling prompt intervention in the event of a fire.
