Gas Detection Solutions for Lithium-ion Battery Production

Providing safe work environments and stable production. Riken Keiki’s involved in the research and manufacturing of the lithium-ion battery since the early stage of development. Over 10,000 units are in operation at the lithium-ion battery production sites around the world. We will continue to support the safety of lithium-ion battery production by continuous improvement and responding to the costumers voices.

Products lineup for Drying process

In the production of electrodes for lithium-ion batteries, NMP is used as a solvent. NMP will only vaporize at high temperatures during the drying processes. As concentrations of NMP build up, the risk of explosion increases. An ideal location to detect NMP is within the exhaust duct. By utilizing direct insertion design into the exhaust duct, detection of NMP will be at the center of the duct and able to withstand high temperatures and high concentrations.

Why detect for gases in lithium-ion battery production?

During the production of lithium-ion batteries, processes use or generate gases, which can be combustible or toxic. Exceeding safe concentrations of these gases can put your people and equipment at risk. Protect your people and property by installing gas detection designed for lithium-ion manufacturing applications.

Testing Process Gas Monitors

Every Lithium-ion battery is required to pass a test without emitting gas in a harsh environment. Combustible gas and toxic gas may be generated from the battery in the evaluation test process. Gas concentration monitoring is essential to prevent ignition and poisoning accidents during the testing process. When the gas detector detects the target gas, it is necessary to take outside air from the intake / exhaust damper to reduce the gas concentration in the test equipment..
