FDNY Approves CellBlock Fire Containment System for E-Mobility Batteries

CellBlock Fire Containment Systems announced its modular battery charging rack has obtained regulatory approval by the FDNY for use in charging lithium-ion batteries. The Charge Safe Battery Rack is the first and only approved system allowing for the bypass of NYC fire code 309.3, requiring 2 feet of separation between charging batteries not only adjacent but omnidirectional. "Our team is excited to not only offer safety in storage but passive fire suppression and measurable cost savings as perhaps the most impressive added value." "Until now, even a fortified 10 10 battery fire area would be spatially inadequate for 50kWh of stored energy. Our system is not only the safest charging system, it requires 1/12th the space" said Dylan Vandemark, CellBlock FCS CTO and Founder.
