Off Gas Detector For Li-ion Battery Room

All in One Solution and Installation Service for Detection

Safety in a battery room is essential because lithium-ion batteries can release flammable and toxic gases such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and VOCs during charging or malfunction. These gases pose serious fire and explosion risks if not detected early. A gas detection system helps identify these emissions before they reach dangerous levels, allowing prompt preventive actions. Continuous monitoring ensures compliance with NFPA safety guidelines and protects both personnel and equipment.

In every modern battery room, safety is a top priority. Whether used in renewable energy systems, data centers, or EV charging infrastructure, lithium-ion batteries can release dangerous gases during overcharging or malfunction. This makes off-gas detection essential for preventing fires and ensuring worker safety. Ambetronics Engineers Pvt. Ltd. introduces the GT-6022-FLP Smart Multi-Gas Detector from the Deca Safe Series, an advanced solution designed to protect your battery room from potential hazards.

Why Gas Detection Is Crucial in a Battery Room

During thermal runaway or cell failure, lithium-ion batteries emit flammable and toxic gases such as hydrogen (H₂), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These gases can ignite or cause suffocation if undetected.
Installing a reliable battery room gas detector provides an early warning before smoke or fire appears. This early detection allows operators to take corrective action—ventilate the room, isolate power sources, or trigger alarms—protecting people and property.

FAQ's

What is the purpose of gas detection in a battery room?

Gas detection in a battery room helps identify the release of flammable and toxic gases such as hydrogen (H₂), carbon monoxide (CO), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that occur during battery charging or failure. Early detection prevents explosions, fires, and health hazards.

Off-gas detection provides the earliest warning of potential thermal runaway in lithium-ion batteries. When a battery cell starts to fail, gases are released before smoke or fire appears. Detecting these gases early allows quick preventive action to avoid major incidents.

According to NFPA 855 and NFPA 69, battery energy storage systems must have continuous gas monitoring to detect flammable gases and prevent explosions. Ambetronics detectors are designed to meet these safety and compliance standards.

It supports RS-485 communication with MODBUS RTU protocol, allowing easy integration with BMS, PLC, and SCADA systems for centralized monitoring and control.

It can be used in energy storage systems (ESS), refineries, paint shops, power plants, cold storages, and chemical processing plants, wherever gas detection and safety monitoring are required.
