Phoenix Battery Fighter Lithium-Ion Battery Charging Safes
The Phoenix Battery Fighter BS0440 series provides lockable storage with internal power sockets for charging compatible lithium-ion and rechargeable batteries. The range is designed for domestic, workplace and commercial environments where batteries and chargers need to be stored together in a controlled cabinet.
Rechargeable batteries can present a fire risk if they are damaged, defective, incorrectly charged or exposed to excessive heat. A site risk assessment, suitable charger, correct electrical supply and appropriate operating procedures should be used alongside the cabinet.
Suitable Battery Applications
Phoenix Battery Fighter safes can be used to store and charge compatible batteries for:
- Power tools and cordless workshop equipment
- Garden tools and grounds-maintenance equipment
- E-bikes and electric scooters
- Drones and surveying equipment
- Laptops, tablets and mobile phones
- AAA, AA, C, D and 9V rechargeable batteries
Always follow the battery and charger manufacturers’ instructions. Batteries that are damaged, swollen, recalled, leaking or overheating should not be placed on charge.
Charging Socket Options
| Cabinet model | Power distribution units | Charging sockets |
|---|---|---|
| BS0441 | Two double PDUs | Four sockets |
| BS0442 | Three double PDUs | Six sockets |
| BS0444 | Four double PDUs | Eight sockets |
Fire-Test Scope
BS0441 and BS0442 models are stated as tested to NT Fire 017-90 Paper. The larger BS0444 is stated as tested to NT Fire 017-120 Paper.
These ratings relate to the protection of paper documents under the relevant test conditions. They should not be described as certification that the cabinet will contain or suppress a lithium-ion battery thermal-runaway event.
Impact Testing
The cabinet range is stated as fire and impact tested from a height of 9.1 metres. This test assesses resistance to the impact associated with a safe falling through the burning floors of a building.
Cabinet Construction
Battery Fighter cabinets use double-wall construction with an internal fill of Styronite F insulation. The insulated construction is intended to provide cabinet strength and resistance to external heat.
| Internal fittings | Height-adjustable shelves, a pull-out drawer and internal key hooks |
|---|---|
| Floor fixing | Prepared for floor fixing with bolts supplied for a suitable concrete floor |
| Warning labels | Safety warning labels stated as conforming to ISO 3864 and ISO 7010 |
| Finish | Scratch-resistant white paint, RAL 9003 |
| Optional monitoring | Internal temperature monitoring with an external display and alarm |
Battery Fighter Locking Options
| Model suffix | Lock type | Lock features |
|---|---|---|
| K | Key lock | Supplied with two keys |
| E | Electronic lock | Electronic code access with a scrambled-code function |
| F | Touchscreen and fingerprint lock | LED display, internal alarm, dual control, hidden-code and scrambled-code functions, with capacity for up to 32 fingerprints |
Optional Internal Temperature Monitoring
An optional monitoring system provides an external display of the cabinet’s internal temperature. An alarm can provide an early warning of an abnormal temperature increase, allowing site procedures to be followed before conditions escalate.
Temperature monitoring is an additional warning feature. It does not replace supervision, battery inspection, electrical checks or an appropriate emergency-response plan.
Cash and Valuables Guidance
Phoenix states a recommended overnight cash risk of £2,500 or a valuables risk of £25,000. These figures are guidance and do not guarantee insurance cover. Confirm the cabinet model, location and installation requirements with the relevant insurer.
