Emtez LithiumVault Quarantine Cabinets
When it comes to safeguarding your valuable assets and ensuring a secure environment, Emtez presents a groundbreaking solution — the LithiumVault Quarantine Cabinets. Beyond conventional safety measures, our cabinets are equipped with an innovative, built-in quarantine water tank system that takes fire protection to a whole new level.
How do water quarantine safety cabinets effectively prevent lithium-ion battery thermal runaway?
In addition to the standard Emtez safety cabinet features, in the event of a fire, our LithiumVault Quarantine Cabinets also feature a built-in quarantine water tank system. The cabinet automatically triggers a safety response at 70°C that tips over all shelves.
This action allows the batteries to descend into a specially designed water tank positioned at the cabinet’s base. As soon as they’re immersed, the fire will be rapidly extinguished, and the potential risk of subsequent self-combustion, arising from the chemical reagents present in the batteries, will be effectively eliminated. This safety mechanism ensures the containment and reduction of fire-related dangers.
Water pump and algaecide
Our Quarantine cabinets are outfitted with a water pump designed to facilitate the controlled replenishment of water within the tank. This pump serves to effectively cycle and renew the water content. An algaecide is added into the tank with the function of hindering the growth of algae and bacteria. This combination limits the growth of unwanted microorganisms.

European Standard | EN14470-1
All Emtez LithiumVault Quarantine cabinets are subject to rigorous compliance checks in accordance with the standards outlined in EN 14470-1.

This adherence to industry standards and the endorsement by Bureau Veritas underscores our commitment to ensuring the highest quality and safety standards for our customers.
Standard Safety Features
Emtez Quarantine cabinets are crafted exclusively from cold-pressed sheet steel with a thickness ranging from 1 to 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 Quarantine cabinet is equipped with an automatic hydraulic closing system, which activates when temperatures exceed 47°C. This system is designed to autonomously close the doors, serving as a precautionary measure to manage fires and prioritise safety.
All Quarantine cabinets come with dual-purpose anti-spark hinges, enhancing both door stability and safety by substantially lowering the risk of ignition from sparks. Furthermore, each cabinet is furnished with height-adjustable feet to accommodate uneven floors, ensuring smooth door closure.
All Quarantine cabinets are certified for 90-minutes of fire resistance according to the EN 14470-1 TYPE 90 standard. This means, in the event of a fire, they will provide 90 minutes of protection, giving plenty of time for the emergency services to arrive.
Each Quarantine cabinet is designed with two small grids on the rear wall for passive ventilation, accompanied by closing valves. The ventilation inlet on the back wall shuts at 47°C, while the fire damper on the top ventilation outlet closes at 72°C.
Every Quarantine unit is equipped with a key-operated lock and a door block system, fortifying security measures to safeguard your assets.
