Emtez LithiumVault FirePro® Cabinets
Secure your organisation with Emtez's LithiumVault FirePro® Cabinets. Setting new standards in safety, these cabinets come equipped with the standalone FirePro® generator, ensuring optimal protection in the face of fire emergencies.
What is a FirePro® system & how does it stop thermal runaway?
FirePro® is an innovative and environmentally friendly fire suppression system. In the event of a fire, the LithiumVault cabinets equipped with the stand-alone FirePro® generator are activated by a bulb thermal sensor at a preselected temperature. The liquid in the bulb expands when the surrounding temperature increases. At 70°C the glass bulb bursts, causing the release of an active agent composed of potassium salts, which completely floods the cabinet in 10 seconds, in order to suppress the ongoing fire and neutralise dangerous electrolyte decomposition products such as hydrogen fluoride (HF).
Extinguishing occurs by blocking the chemical reactions within the flames and not by reducing oxygen or cooling. This neutralising action prevents the formation of highly flammable gases such as hydrogen (H2), ultimately allowing the temperature in the enclosure to drop below the threshold necessary for a thermal runaway to sustain itself. The FirePro® extinguishing system plays a crucial role in safeguarding against fires.

European Standard | EN14470-1
All Emtez LithiumVault FirePro® cabinets boast a rigorous adherence to safety standards, having undergone meticulous compliance checks in accordance with EN 14470-1. These cabinets hold certificates attesting to the thoroughness of tests conducted by Bureau Veritas (BV). This commitment to compliance and certification ensures that our cabinets meet and exceed industry regulations, providing you with a level of assurance and trust in the safety and quality of our LithiumVault FirePro® cabinets.
Emtez FirePro® Cabinets | Standard Safety Features
All Emtez FirePro® safety cabinets are crafted rom cold-pressed sheet steel with a thickness ranging from 1-1.5mm, featuring a protective coating of anti-acid epoxy powder to enhance durability. Within each steel wall, there is a dedicated insulation layer, consisting of high-density fiber panels that are ceramic-fiber-free. This insulation is designed to endure elevated temperatures, reaching up to 800°C.
Each FirePro® cabinet is equipped with an automatic hydraulic closing system, which activates when temperatures exceed 47°C. This system is designed to automatically close the doors, as a precautionary measure to manage fires and prioritise safety.
All FirePro® cabinets come with dual-purpose anti-spark hinges, enhancing both door stability and safety by substantially lowering the risk of ignition from sparks. Each cabinet is furnished with height-adjustable feet to accommodate uneven floors, ensuring smooth door closure.
All FirePro® cabinets are certified for 90-minutes of fire resistance according to the EN 14470-1 TYPE 90 standard. Which means, in the event of a fire, they will provide 90 minutes of protection, ensuring plenty of time for the emergency services to arrive.
Each FirePro® cabinet is designed with two small grids on the back wall for passive ventilation, accompanied by closing valves. The ventilation inlet shuts at 47°C, while the fire damper on the top ventilation outlet closes at 72°C.
Every FirePro® unit is equipped with a key-operated lock and a door block system, ensuring quality security measures to safeguard your assets.
Emtez FirePro® Cabinets | Enhanced Safety Features
The central alarm system is designed with multiple mechanisms to swiftly detect and address potential dangers. Within the cabinet, there’s a temperature sensor that activates both audio and visual alarms when a predefined temperature threshold is exceeded. Similarly, the smoke sensor initiates the same alarm response upon detecting any signs of vapors or smoke. To ensure optimal visibility, the visual alarm is positioned atop the cabinet and flashes a red light when activated.
The FirePro® FPC-2V2 Panel Protection Controller enables monitoring detection and automatic extinguishing of a fire in an electrical cabinet using a linear heat detection cable or automatic smoke detectors and FirePro® Aerosol Generators. The FPC-2V2 has one detection input for connection of linear heat detection cable, smoke detectors or a combination of both which is monitored for disconnection of the detection devices. Four outputs are provided for the connection of FirePro® Aerosol Generators and disconnection of any of these will announce a fault condition. Volt-free contacts are available to signal fire and fault conditions to the plant or other monitoring equipment. By selecting the appropriate jumper link arrangement, it’s possible to signal an addressable input module via a simple, two-wire connection.
