Main hazards
You can expect zero danger from the battery under normal conditions. The battery corresponds to the
state of the art in science and technology. However, it is obviously impossible to completely exclude
risks if the battery is misused or in the event of technical failure. In case of lithium-ion batteries, these
generally include fire, explosion, chemical burns and electric shock.
The product-specific risk of hazards is elevated by
Water (e.g. flooding)
Heat exposure (> 70 °C)
Failure or malfunction of the control system due to electromagnetic radiation
Touching live components may cause an electric shock when Energypacks are connected in series. The
electric shock can have thermal or muscle paralyzing effects. The latter can lead to ventricular
fibrillation, cardiac arrest or respiratory paralysis, or death.
Overload, short circuit or arcing can cause a lithium-ion fire with thermal runaway. People can be hit by
electrolyte or molten material. In the event of fire, there is a risk of suffocation due to lack of oxygen
and a risk of poisoning due to toxic fumes.

Qualification of the users
Only the electricians qualified by the Axitec Energy or the Axitec Energy itself may work with the battery
system.
Do not leave the children unattended or allow them to be near the battery system.
High currents have effects on medical implants.
People with implants must be careful not to be in the direct vicinity of the
battery during operation.
