BESS.TGV
Innovative side-wall deflagration venting for ultimate flexibility.

Deflagrations must always be vented to a safe location. Conventional deflagration vents can therefore only be installed on the roof of a BESS, venting the deflagration upwards. The revolutionary BESS.TGV by contrast can be installed on a BESS side wall, as it deflects the deflagration upwards by limiting the opening angle of the vent panel.
Application
BESS.TGV helps BESS designers move beyond conventional deflagration venting through the roof, and towards more flexible design opportunities while meeting safety requirements. It eliminates concerns with roof venting such as snow loads and hail impact, and frees up valuable roof area. Container stacking is made possible.
Advantages
- Limits opening angle to 45°.
- Reduced safety area.
- Side-wall installation at BESS.
- Uniquely slim profile < 15 mm: Blends in with the container walls, allows container to be stacked.
Mechanism
BESS.TGV limits the opening angle of the explosion vent and guides the explosion pressure wave, flames and heat into defined areas. This minimises the size of the safety areas required.
