Vehicle Fires are difficult to contain, release toxins and carcinogens in the air and ground, and can take massive amounts of water to extinguish.
With the increase of Electric Vehicles on the road today and the challenges they pose, Fire Departments are receiving special training on using new techniques to ensure the safety of all on the scene when combating these fires.
A Vehicle Fire Blanket along with a Fire Suppression Tool (FST) provides rapid containment, cooling and fire suppression as the new first line of defense when confronted with not just an EV fire, but for ICE fires as well.
Deploying the Fire Cloak USA Fire Blanket at the first sign of potential fire can prevent the growth of the fire. If fire is visible, draping the Fire Blanket over the vehicle will contain the fire and potentially prevent spread while suppressing the flames. The Fire Blanket from Fire Cloak USA is not only a fire suppression solution but also a containment device.
EV Fires are a worry for firefighters as the batteries that operate electric vehicles are extremely high voltage and can generate temperatures of 4,900 - 5,000 degrees F when they burn.
The most common form of fire in electric or hybrid vehicles is when the high energy battery is damaged, or a fault causes the battery to go into "Thermal Runaway." This is when a cell short circuits and the heat generated starts a fire. This, in turn, creates a domino effect and the fire spreads from cell to cell.
Every Car Dealership, EV Owner, Fire Department, Parking Operator, Charging Station, Ferry, Tow Company, First Responder, Hotel, Mechanic and more should have easy access to a EV Fire Blanket; the Fire Cloak USA EV Fire Blanket is simple to deploy and can be used by anyone.
