Unlike traditional water-based systems, F-500 EA® Micelle Mist uses advanced encapsulator technology to rapidly cool the fire’s ignition source and encapsulate flammable electrolytes. This reduces water damage while offering faster and more effective suppression of lithium-ion battery fires.

Yes, F-500 EA® Micelle Mist is safe to discharge in occupied spaces, making it ideal for use in critical facilities such as data centers, telecom facilities, and EV charging stations. It suppresses fires effectively without causing harm to building occupants or first responders.

Smart-LX by Embedded Logix replaces traditional manual monitoring with automated alerts. By using customizable rules, it sends notifications directly to your device at the first sign of temperature rise or vapor release. This advanced system provides real-time monitoring, enabling immediate action to prevent fires and explosions in rack systems.

How F-500 EA® Micelle Mist Works

20 Years of Proven Lithium-ion Battery Fire Protection—Now in Water Mist

F-500 EA® Micelle Mist uses Encapsulator Technology to transform small water droplets into a powerful fire suppression agent. By introducing spherical micelles, the fine mist is able to extinguish fires that traditional sprinkler systems cannot. This advanced water mist formulation has been tested over two decades with proven success in suppressing lithium-ion battery fires, making it the most reliable solution available for modern fire hazards in energy storage systems.

Flammability

F-500 EA® Micelle Mist mitigates lithium-ion battery fires by encapsulating flammable electrolyte and absorbing thermal energy. This halts thermal runaway propagation and rapidly cools the fire’s ignition source.

Explosivity

F-500 EA Micelle Mist® reduces explosion risk by encapsulating hazardous vapors and gases, preventing the buildup of explosive atmospheres, and safely suppressing volatile conditions.

Toxicity

F-500 EA® Micelle Mist significantly reduces exposure to harmful emissions and carcinogens present in smoke. We actively protect building occupants from the dangers of lithium-ion battery fire suppression.

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)

Mitigating Fire and Explosion Risks in Energy Storage Systems

Battery energy storage is crucial for stabilizing the renewable power grid, as it stores solar and wind energy for use during peak demand. But its rapid adoption poses serious fire risks, especially in rural areas with limited resources. Lithium-ion battery thermal runaway releases hazardous vapors and intense flames that endanger lives and property.

Unlike plain water, F-500 EA® Micelle Mist can contain these fires and mitigate unseen threats, such as the release of hazardous vapors and flammable electrolytes.

Parking Garages and EV Charging Stations

Addressing Fire Hazards in Confined Spaces

Fires in parking garages involving electric vehicles (EVs) have become more common in recent years. Research shows most EV fires occur while the vehicle is parked or charging. The confined space of a garage increases the challenges faced by firefighters. F-500 EA® Micelle water mist system can stop thermal runaway propagation in its tracks, offering a proven solution for modern automotive hazards.

Data Centers and Telecom Facilities

Water Mist Fire Protection System for Lithium-Ion Battery Risks

Lithium-ion batteries are replacing lead-acid batteries in data centers due to their higher energy density, faster charging, and longer life at a lower cost. However, the risks posed by lithium-ion battery fires demand innovative fire protection solutions. F-500 EA® Micelle Mist is safe to discharge in occupied spaces, making it an ideal choice for battery fire suppression in critical facilities like data centers.

Marine, Maritime, and Offshore Installations

Mitigating Fire Hazards from Marine Applications

Global transport of lithium-ion batteries is increasing, and so are the risks of severe marine fires. These difficult blazes are endangering passengers, crews, vessels, and cargo. That’s why advanced fire detection, containment, and suppression systems are becoming essential for marine fire safety. The F-500 EA® water mist fire suppression system is saltwater-friendly and expertly designed to safeguard offshore operations.
