Firechief® 28L Lithium-Ion Battery Aluminium Storage Case (141-1066)
Firechief® Lithium-Ion Battery Aluminium Storage Case – 28L
The Firechief® Lithium-Ion Battery Aluminium Storage Case is expertly designed to provide safer storage and transportation for lithium-ion batteries. Its strong yet lightweight aluminium construction delivers a practical balance of portability, durability and protection.
With a 28-litre capacity, this case is suitable for storing smaller lithium-ion batteries used in tools, electronic equipment and other rechargeable devices. The compact design makes it suitable for workplaces, workshops, warehouses, educational facilities and maintenance environments.
Robust Aluminium Construction
The case is manufactured from robust industrial-grade aluminium, providing a durable and corrosion-resistant outer shell. Aluminium helps keep the overall product weight manageable while maintaining the structural integrity required for demanding commercial environments.
A convenient carry handle is mounted on the lid, allowing the case to be lifted and transported by one person. Easy-to-use clasp fasteners help keep the lid securely closed during storage and handling.
Fire-Retardant Internal Lining
The interior is lined with lightweight, high-temperature-resistant fire insulation materials and fire-retardant foam. This lining provides an additional layer of protection around the stored batteries and helps manage heat should a battery failure occur.
The storage case is designed to reduce the risks associated with lithium-ion battery thermal runaway. However, businesses should always follow their site-specific fire risk assessment and the battery manufacturer's storage and handling instructions.
Controlled Pressure Release
Lithium-ion batteries can release heat, pressure and flammable gases during thermal runaway. The Firechief® aluminium storage case includes ventilation points fitted with flame arrestors, allowing pressure to be released in a controlled manner while helping to prevent flames from escaping through the vents.
This combination of controlled ventilation, fire-retardant lining and durable aluminium construction makes the case a practical storage solution for organisations managing rechargeable batteries.
Compatible with PyroFlow™ Passive Granules
For enhanced thermal protection, the case can be combined with Firechief® PyroFlow™ Passive Fire Suppression Granules.
PyroFlow™ granules can be used as a thermally stable packaging filler around stored batteries. If a battery catches fire, the granules are designed to melt, absorb heat and form an impermeable shell around the fire load. This helps encapsulate the affected battery and restrict further reaction.
PyroFlow™ can also help limit the release of toxic gases produced during lithium-ion battery thermal runaway.

Important Safety Information
This storage case should be used as part of a suitable lithium-ion battery fire safety procedure. Always inspect batteries before storage and do not charge batteries inside the case unless the manufacturer has expressly confirmed that the product is suitable for that purpose.
Damaged, swollen, leaking or overheating batteries should be isolated and managed in accordance with your organisation's risk assessment and emergency procedures.
