The LT-DKT is the Honeywell Li-ion Tamer® GEN 3 Demo Kit: a case containing representative components of the Li-ion Tamer GEN 3 lithium-ion battery off-gas detection system. It is intended for demonstrating how the system works. Li-ion Tamer GEN 3 detects the venting of battery electrolyte solvent vapours (the off-gassing phase) that occurs early in the failure of lithium-ion batteries, giving early warning so that mitigation steps can be taken before thermal runaway.
Key features
- Carry case with representative Li-ion Tamer GEN 3 system components for demonstrations
- Shows the GEN 3 architecture: off-gas sensors networked through hubs and Ethernet switches to a central controller
- GEN 3 sensors are calibration-free, compatible with all lithium-ion battery form factors and chemistries, and include temperature and humidity monitoring
- System outputs via relays and Modbus TCP/IP to a BMS or other control systems
- Sensor response can be verified with a Diethyl Carbonate (DEC) bump test
Technical specifications
- Part number: LT-DKT (Li-ion Tamer Gen 3 Demo Kit)
- Weight: 7.4 kg
- System target gases: lithium-ion battery electrolyte solvent vapours, e.g. DEC, DMC, EMC (FM 6540 approved)
- System minimum detection threshold: 10 ppm/second; minimum response time: 5 seconds
- System fault detection: single cell failure
Note: Li-ion Tamer detects electrolyte vapours; it does not prevent fires or thermal runaway and should be incorporated into a proper safety system.
