4.1 Automatic working mode

Control system is in automatic working state, automatically completes the whole process of fire detection,
alarm, linkage control and fire extinguishing.

Steps:

Step 1: After a fire signal is detected by a detect circuit in the protection area, fire alarm controller activates
the alarm bell in the protected zone and provides a fire pre-alarm signal.

Step 2: After the other detect system inside the same defence area defects the fire signal, the fire alarm
control system activates the voice and light alarm from the defence, meanwhile, alert the people to escape.
Then the airconditioner and airflow fan instruments will be cut off. The fire alarm system will enter into
delayed period（0-30S).

Step 3: When the delay is over, fire alarm control system outputs active signal to activate the solenoid valve
on the gas cylinder, and spray fire extinguishing agent into the protection area.
The fire alarm control system actives the deflation indicator of the protection area to remind the staff that on
this protection area is spraying fire extinguishing agent and do not allow enter into.

4.2 Manual working mode

Emergency start
When the fire protection system is in the manual start state, fire alarm control system only sends out alarm
signal, no output action signal. After the on-duty personnel confirm the fire alarm signal, press the
emergency start button on the control panel of the fire alarm control system or the emergency start-stop
button in the protection area to manually start the fire extinguishing device and spray the HFC-227EA fire
extinguishing agent.

Emergency Stop
When the fire alarm control system into the 30s delayed period, if the on duty people confirms that it is a
false alarm, can manually operate the emergency stop button on the control panel of the fire alarm control
system or the emergency start-stop button in the protection area and stop spraying HFC-227EA fire
extinguishing agent.

4.3 Mechanical emergency start mode

An emergency start is required only if both automatic and manual control fails or the system loses power.
This moment can active the gas fire control system by operate the manual start device on the HFC-227EA
fire extinguisher.

5. Temperature control system

In order to overcome the shortcomings of slow cooling and poor consistency of the existing battery compartment
thermal management scheme, the utility model proposes a thermal management scheme using improved air
ducts, wind walls and heat dissipation channels in the battery box to improve cooling efficiency and consistency.

The thermal management scheme of the energy storage container battery storehouse proposed by the utility
model is that an industrial air conditioner is arranged at one end of the battery warehouse aisle, the maximum
refrigeration capacity of the air conditioner is the same as the maximum heating power of all the batteries in the
battery storehouse, the air supply and return mode of "top air supply and front air return" is adopted, the top air
outlet of the air conditioner is connected with the air duct, and the air duct is installed above the battery rack
along both sides of the aisle, and the air duct height is the direction decreases step by step. This design can
make the air pressure of each outlet close to each other, and ensure the uniform outflow of cold air from each
outlet. A wind wall is arranged between each battery rack and the wall of the warehouse. The upper part of the
wind wall is connected with the air duct. The non blocked side of the wind wall is welded seamlessly at the edge
and the battery rack. Its function is to guide the cold air flow from the air duct into each battery box evenly. Along
the width direction of the battery box, a heat dissipation channel is arranged every two cores. The heat dissipation
channel connects the wind wall and the walkway, enlarges the heat dissipation surface of the cores, and is
conductive to uniform heat dissipation.

The utility model has the beneficial effects that the stepped air duct effectively equalizes the wind pressure, and
realizes the even distribution of the cold air flow in each wind wall. The cold air is accurately guided to the
heating electric core to realize efficient heat dissipation. The cold air is overflowed by the wind wall and evenly
enter the heat dissipation channel of each battery box to improve the heat dissipation of the battery core.
