EXTON, PA — United Safety & Survivability Corporation, headquartered in Exton, Pennsylvania, has announced the launch of its groundbreaking innovation – a Lithium-Ion Battery Failure Detection Sensor. This product represents a new standard in safety for electric vehicles across various industries.

In recent years, lithium-ion batteries have become an integral part of our daily lives. From powering school transportation and public transit to first responder vehicles and construction equipment, the global rise of electric vehicles is undeniable. However, with the increasing prevalence of lithium-ion batteries, safety concerns have also risen. Once a lithium-ion battery enters thermal runaway – a situation where an increase in temperature changes conditions in a way that causes a further increase in temperature, often leading to a destructive result – there is no stopping it. This makes the need for enhanced monitoring and early detection paramount.

The Lithium-Ion Battery Failure Detection Sensor from United Safety & Survivability Corporation is designed to address these concerns. In the early stages of failure, the battery cell begins to generate various gases. These gases build up and increase the pressure inside the cell until the pressure relief activates venting. The sensor detects these gases being released, detecting potential failures long before they become critical.

While the device can be installed on its own, it can also be combined with a fire suppression system, such as the Fogmaker Fire Suppression System, to provide a comprehensive detection and suppression system. This combination offers an unparalleled level of safety and security for electric vehicles and their operators.

Joseph Mirabile, CEO of United Safety, has hailed this new product as a game-changer in the field of electric vehicle safety. “With the rise of electric vehicles in all sectors, the risks of fire are greatly different than what many are used to,” Mirabile said. “When a fire starts within an electric vehicle, all we can hope for is to give occupants the greatest window of time to evacuate. It is truly unique to be able to offer a product that stops a fire – let alone a thermal runaway event before it even happens. Couple this with our Fogmaker system and I believe this is the best detection and suppression package available on the market today for electric vehicles.”
