Xerotech, a battery technology company have announced they are collaborating with LifeSafe Technologies, a fire safety technology business, to advance safety in their battery packs.
LifeSafe manufactures several fire safety products, but most relevant to Xerotech is the newly launched, Pre-Trauma Fluid. Their PTF is a non-conductive coolant fluid with a flash point of over 225 degrees centigrade, explicitly designed to prevent thermal runaway in Lithium-ion battery packs. Their non-corrosive dielectric fluid can help reduce heat transfer.
“We are incredibly pleased to have signed this partnership agreement with LifeSafe, which provides the opportunity for us to use their unique fluids within large-scale battery systems and vehicle applications worldwide.” said Tony McDonald, Head of Engineering at Xerotech
