Li-Ion Battery Charging and Storage Locker
COMFIRE locker for charging and storing lithium-ion aircraft batteries, certified to contain a battery fire without affecting adjacent batteries.
Description
The Lithium-Ion Battery Charging and Storage Locker houses and stores lithium-ion aircraft batteries of various types, sizes and shapes. Built with COMFIRE fireproof composite, it is certified so that a fire in one battery does not affect adjacent batteries. Marine Systems Technology (MST), now part of Jered, obtained the first qualification of such lockers for the UK Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carriers.
