Battery Energy Storage Fire Protection
Orbis Fire Suppression provides enclosure-level fire protection solutions designed to detect and control early-stage fire events inside energy storage enclosures, helping limit fire growth, reduce heat release, and slow escalation. By delivering fast, localized suppression at the point of origin, Orbis systems support early intervention, improve system resilience, and create safer conditions for emergency response.

The Orbis® Solution
Orbis solution for BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems)
Orbis systems deliver automatic, enclosure-level fire control using inert gas suppression designed to operate safely in energized BESS environments and confined battery enclosures.
What this means for BESS installations:
Early fire control at the point of origin
Reduced heat release and slower fire escalation
No water, no residue, no cleanup
No damage to electrical or electronic components
Improved conditions for emergency response
Reduced asset damage and recovery time
Orbis systems use inert gas fire suppression agents:
Nitrogen (IG-01)
Argon (IG-100)
Properties:
Electrically non-conductive
Zero residue
Non-corrosive
Safe for energized electrical equipment
Suitable for sealed and semi-sealed enclosures
No water damage. No chemical residue. Designed to control fire development, not claim full suppression of thermal runaway.
