Furthermore, our ION-LINE PRO and ULTRA safety storage cabinets are now certified in accordance with VDMA 24994:2024-08!

What exactly does that mean?

The new standard sheet VDMA 24994:2024-08 outlines fire-resistant test requirements for lithium battery safety storage and charging cabinets.Alongside the 90-minute fire resistance tests from outside to inside (in accordance with EN 14470-1) and inside to outside (based on EN 1363-1), these standards now define the latest state of the art.

How did our cabinets obtain VDMA 24994:2024-08 certification?

The practical test:A worst-case scenario was simulated in a real fire test: battery cells were combined into a single unit and triggered into thermal runaway by using controlled heating inside the cabinet. Both of our cabinets withstood the full reaction of the cells and successfully passed the test!Product certification:asecos was subsequently audited by the certification body European Certification Body (ECB) GmbH.

THE CERTIFICATION TEST PLATE

Only genuine with the type plate

All our ION-LINE PRO and ULTRA cabinets will now carry an additional type plate from the ECB certification body.In future, you will find it on the inside of the cabinet doors.
