Firefighting Measures

Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection

Suitable media

Metal fire extinction powder, rock salt or dry sand shall be used. In case only water is available, it can be used in large amounts.

Unsuitable media

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is not suitable. Water in small quantities may have adverse effects.

Specific hazards

Cells may explode and release metal parts. At contact of anode material with water extremely flammable hydrogen gas and caustic liquid are released.

Firefighter Protection

Protective clothing including breathing apparatus.

06

Accidental Release Measures

Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection

Small spill

If battery casing is dismantled, small amounts of electrolyte may leak. Package the battery tightly including ingredients together with lime, sand or rock salt.

Environmental

Bind released ingredients with powder (rock salt, sand). Dispose off according to the local law and rules. Avoid leached substances to penetrate into the earth, canalization or water.

Cleanup methods

Then clean with water.

Materials: water

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Always follow the warning information on the batteries and in the manuals of devices. Only use the recommended battery types. Keep batteries away from children. For devices to be used by children, the battery casing should be protected against unauthorized access. Unpacked batteries shall not lie about in bulk. In case of battery change always replace all batteries by new ones of identical type and brand. Do not swallow batteries. Do not throw batteries into water. Do not throw batteries into fire. Do not short-circuit batteries. Do not recharge primary batteries. Do not open or disassemble batteries.

Storage

Storage preferably at room temperature (approx. 20°C). Avoid large temperature changes. Avoid direct sunlight. At higher temperature the electrical performance may be reduced. Storage of unpacked batteries can cause short circuit and heat generation.

Fire prevention

The storage area shall be monitored by an automatic fire detection system, connected to a permanently manned place. A fire-extinguishing system shall reflect the extinguishing agents mentioned in chapter 5.
