Overview: Safety storage cabinets for active and passive charging of the ION-LINE model line
Safely charge and store lithium-ion batteries in Type 90 safety cabinets
For the safe active and passive storage of lithium batteries, the asecos ION-LINE offers three different safety levels:
- CORE: Comprehensive fire protection with the proven asecos evacuation and alarm forwarding concept.
- PRO: Enhanced protection when handling lithium-ion batteries thanks to improved monitoring in fume management - including pressure relief, venting attachment and the option of connecting to a fume extraction system.
- ULTRA: Improved fire protection, active flue gas management - including pressure relief, venting attachment and the option of connecting to a flue gas discharge system - offer extended monitoring even in sensitive areas with the highest safety requirements.
No matter what safety level you choose, all cabinets offer these key safety features:
- Fire protection, inside-out and outside-in
- Smoke detection
- Alarm forwarding
In addition, for the CORE and Pro models, you have these options:
If you only wish to store batteries in the cabinet, choose the STORE version. If you intend to charge (active storage) batteries directly in the cabinet, then choose the CHARGE version.

-
Smoke detector and temperature sensor
- The ION-LINE models ULTRA and PRO are equipped with at least one smoke detector and a temperature sensor. These detect incipient fires at an early stage and can forward alarms to the building management system.
-
Alarm forwarding as a key component
All ION-LINE cabinets are equipped ex works with a potential-free alarm contact for on-site alarm forwarding. The connection of this contact to a permanently occupied control centre (internal or external) has to be preferred as the most reliable way of alarm forwarding. Optional modules can be purchased as an alternative or extension.
Complementary option 1: Relay module
By choosing this option, you are opting for alarm differentiation instead of a collective alarm.The factory-installed module differentiates between four different warning and alarm levels.
The relay module is suited for the PRO models of the ION-LINE.
Complementary option 2: Module for remote signalling
The module offers an alarm forwarding via the mobile phone network (SMS/call) and is therefore especially suitable for companies and facilities without a central building management system. In an emergency, the immediate alerting of one or several defined persons is triggered. The module is easily installed on-site by the customer via plug (also suitable for retrofitting).
The module is suitable for the ION-Line PRO and CORE models.
