5. Fire Fighting Measures
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:
Battery may explode or leak potentially hazardous vapors subject to: exposed to excessive heat (above the maximum rated
temperature as specified by the manufacturer) or fire, over-charged, short circuit, punctured and crushed.
Hazardous Combustion Products:
Fire, excessive heat, or over voltage conditions may produce hazardous decomposition products. Damaged batteries can
result in rapid heating and the release of flammable vapors.
Extinguishing Media:
Dry chemical type extinguishers are the most effective means to extinguish a battery fire. A CO2 extinguisher will also work
effectively.
Fire Fighting Procedures:
Use a positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus if batteries are involved in a fire. Full protective clothing is
necessary. During water application, caution is advised as burning pieces of flammable particles may be ejected from the fire.
