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: Expanded protection when handling lithium-ion batteries with improved monitoring.
- ULTRA: Improved fire protection, active smoke gas management, and expanded monitoring are useful even in sensitive areas with the highest safety requirements. The ION-LINE ULTRA is tested and certified in accordance with GS Principle EK5/AK4 22-01 for testing and certification of safety storage cabinets for active and passive storage of lithium-ion batteries.
No matter what safety level you choose, all cabinets off er 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 want 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.

ION-LINE Highlights
-
Safety level ULTRA
Improved fire protection, active smoke gas management and expanded monitoring are useful even in sensitive areas with the highest safety requirements.
ION-LINE ULTRA
- GS-certified fire resistance in accordance with GS test principle EK5/AK4 22-01
- Smoke-tight cabinet construction with pressure relief opening in the head section and self-closing, automatically locking doors
-
Safety level PRO
Expanded protection when handling lithium-ion batteries with improved monitoring.
PRO CHARGE
- If you intend to charge (active storage) batteries directly in the cabinet, then choose the CHARGE version.
PRO STORE
- If you only want to store batteries in the cabinet, choose the STORE version.
-
Safety level CORE
Comprehensive fire protection with the proven asecos evacuation and alarm forwarding concept.
CORE CHARGE
- If you intend to charge (active storage) batteries directly in the cabinet, then choose the CHARGE version.
CORE STORE
- If you only want to store batteries in the cabinet, choose the STORE version.
-
Smoke detector and temperature sensor
- All ION-LINE models (exception: ION CHARGE LOCKER) are equipped with a smoke detector
- The ULTRA and PRO models also have at least one temperature sensor (depending on the model) for fire detection and forwarding the alarm to the building management system
-
Alarm forwarding as a key component
All ION-LINE cabinets are equipped ex works with a potentialfree 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 remote signalling module is suited for all ION-LINE models.
-
Extraction unit
- Extraction unit for technical ventilation and to avoid heat build-up during the charging process (only for PRO Charge models)
- Already integrated in the head section of ULTRA models
-
LED display
- LED display with visual and audible alarm for a quick indication of emergencies without opening the cabinet doors (only for ULTRA and PRO models)
Locking system
- The cabinet can be securely locked to protect against unauthorized use
- The integrated red/green indicator quickly shows the locking status
-
Passive storage
- For the storage of new or used lithium-ion batteries, the ION-LINE PRO STORE or CORE STORE cabinet models are ideally suited
- Equipped with a smoke detector, at least one temperature sensor (depending on the model) and a potential-free alarm contact as standard, these cabinet models are ideally suited for passive storage
Active storage
- For the active storage of lithium-ion batteries, the ION-LINE ULTRA, PRO CHARGE and CORE CHARGE cabinet models are equipped with high-quality protective contact sockets
- Due to the sophisticated safety concept with smoke detector, (depending on model) temperature sensor and fire suppression unit, these ION-LINE cabinet models offer a high level of safety for charging lithium-ion batteries
-
Fire suppression device
- Available fire suppression system, which automatically triggers in the event of a fire inside the cabinet
- Standard on PRO models, available as an option on ULTRA models
-
Shelf
- Equipped with height-adjustable shelves (max. load 25 kg / 75 kg) as storage levels
- Perforated design to avoid heat accumulation during loading
Sump pallet
- Bottom collecting sump is used to catch any leakage which may occur from burning batteries
-
Single-hand operation
- Convenient storage and retrieval - open two cupboard doors at the same time with just one hand
- Permanent locking of the doors by automatic 2-point locking
Pressure relief opening in the head section
- serves as a supply air opening and closes in case of fire
- enables a defined pressure reduction and smoke removal
-
Transport base
- Cabinet can easily and quickly be evacuated in case of an emergency due to an integrated transport base
-
ION CHARGE UB safety storage under bench cabinet
Perfect size for any environment
- Charging lithium-ion batteries safely in cabinets with 90 minutes fire resistance and outlet strips with earthed sockets ready to use
- The under bench cabinet can be flexibly integrated under worktops due to a height of 78 cm
-
The locker system enables active and passive lithium batteries to be stored separately and protected from unauthorized access.
ION CORE CHARGE
-
Equip the ION CORE CHARGE with the "locker system" equipment package for separate active and passive storage of lithium batteries, protected from unauthorized access.
ION CHARGE LOCKER
- Fire-protected lockers prevent the spread of fire throughout the interior of the enclosure by allowing individual compartments to be removed and protect stored batteries from being engulfed by flames

Product video of the ION-LINE lithium cabinets
We have further developed our tried-and-tested safety storage cabinets for the active and passive storage of lithium batteries and divided them into three safety levels. In this video, we present the features of the ION-LINE Core, ION-LINE Pro and ION-LINE ULTRA model lines and the corresponding safety levels.
