Best-in-Class Lithium-ion Battery Protection
Early warning of lithium-ion battery failures and prevention of thermal runaway
Compatible with all lithium-ion battery form factors and chemistries
Li-ion Tamer GEN3 is a plug-and-play rack system that improves safety by sensing the off-gassing that precedes thermal runaway battery failures much earlier than smoke or traditional LFL gas detection would.
Product categories
Sensors detect lithium-ion battery electrolyte solvent vapours (off-gas detection), provide temperature and humidity monitoring of the space. Sensors transmit off-gas, temperature, and humidity readings via CANbus to the Hub.
Assembly comprises Li-ion Tamer G2+ sensor and Interface Module. Provides relays, Modbus 485 and CANbus outputs

Li-ion Tamer Benefits
- Provides battery sensor and gas detection technology that enhances the safety of all Li-ion batteries used in stationary energy storage and EV application.
- Enables mitigating actions to be taken before the failure progresses into a fire.
- Provides the earliest possible warning of battery cell failure–up to 30 minutes early warning.
- Is compatible with all Li-ion chemistries, form factors, and system designs.
- Delivers consistent and reliable signals with no downtime caused by false alarms.
- Easily integrated into existing platforms with direct feed to battery management systems.
- Sensors are independent of the battery’s operational state and require no calibration, allowing monitoring even during shipping and storage.
Technology Integration
Li-ion Tamer® is designed to provide enhanced safety for your battery systems and can be installed at a wide range of integration points throughout your design. Off-gas begins as gases that are generated inside individual cells due to exothermic reactions which begin to occur as a result of internal problems in the battery or external abuses. The release of these gases is the first stage of a battery failure which can self-propagate until the battery begins to smoke and go into fully developed thermal runaway. The ability to detect the gases provides a signal capable is providing early warning of the eventual cell failure and can enable actions which can help mitigate the effects of the battery failure. Li-ion Tamer® products are designed to detect and protect from individual modules, to EV batteries, to room level integrated solutions.
Markets We Serve and Beyond
Lithium ion batteries provide power and energy densities demanded by many of today’s energy storage needs. For this reason, lithium ion batteries are being utilized in battery systems across a wide range of markets. Li-ion Tamer® battery monitoring systems are designed with the flexibility of these markets in mind. The operating principles of the monitoring systems are applicable to all lithium ion battery chemistries, form factors, and battery system layouts; they also operate independent of the operational state of the batteries and can even provide valuable monitoring of batteries during shipping and storage.
