Preventing Hydrogen Explosions in Industrial Battery Charging Installations


Reducing or eliminating the thousands of grievances each year brought on by unions, individual employees and safety concerns regarding the possibility of gas explosions is critical to keeping insurance costs down.



Installing hydrogen detectors in a battery charging facility makes sense if you operate electric forklift trucks, AGV’s, EV’s, or standby flooded battery systems. A primary concern in battery charging areas is the possibility of hydrogen gas, which is generated during battery recharge, accumulating to concentrations that may become explosive.



Hydrogen gas is a very serious issue in battery charging facilities, but there are detection solutions that continuously and effectively monitor these concentration levels. These hydrogen detection solutions help ensure the safety and peace of mind among employees and ultimately save management time and money.



The Risks of Unmonitored Hydrogen in Battery Installations White Paper thoroughly examines the hazards of hydrogen relative to battery installations and addresses fire code regulations and enforcement. The white paper further demonstrates the dangers of hydrogen with actual cases involving hydrogen detonation while also providing invaluable information on what you can do to greatly reduce the risk of a hydrogen buildup-related incident.
