Looking for a reliable battery partner for fire safety or emergency backup systems?
Himax Electronics provides custom battery solutions that improve safety, extend product lifespan, and enhance system reliability.
Part 1 – Customer Pain Points in Fire Safety Systems
A North American fire safety equipment manufacturer faced serious challenges with their fire alarm systems and emergency lighting devices. Their existing batteries suffered from high self-discharge, leading to unreliable standby performance. Additionally, in high-temperature environments, battery degradation accelerated, increasing failure risks. As a result, their systems could not guarantee instant activation during emergencies. Therefore, the client urgently required a custom fire safety battery solution with long standby life, thermal stability, and high reliability to meet strict safety regulations.
Part 2 – Himax Custom Battery Solution for Emergency Backup
To solve these issues, Himax Electronics developed a custom lithium battery for fire safety systems. First, we selected LiFePO4 chemistry for superior thermal stability and safety. Then, we optimized the design for low self-discharge, ensuring extended standby life. Moreover, we integrated a smart BMS with overcharge, over-discharge, and thermal protection. In addition, flame-retardant materials were used for the battery housing to meet fire safety standards. Consequently, the solution provided stable power for both standby and emergency activation scenarios.
Part 3 – Results & Business Impact
After deploying the new solution, the client achieved a 50% increase in standby battery lifespan, significantly reducing maintenance frequency. Furthermore, emergency activation reliability improved, ensuring instant response during fire incidents. As a result, their products met stricter compliance requirements and gained higher market acceptance. Additionally, the improved battery performance enhanced brand reputation and customer trust. Overall, this custom emergency backup battery solution strengthened the client’s competitiveness in the fire safety industry.
