Product catalog summary
Li-Ion Battery Disclaimer Overview
LINAK provides a disclaimer regarding the use of Li-Ion batteries, emphasizing the balance between compact size and high energy capacity, which increases the risk of thermal runaway due to internal short circuits. Despite the low risk, estimated at 1 PPM or less, the potential for thermal runaway has led to stricter transport regulations, particularly in air transport.

Design and Safety Measures
LINAK designs its Li-Ion batteries using cell types with a proven safety record, such as those used in electric cars. The batteries are approved according to UL standards and reviewed by external experts to ensure compliance with the latest safety recommendations. Only cells from reputable manufacturers are used.

Recommendations for Use
Customers are advised to conduct thorough risk analyses for their applications, ensuring batteries are not placed near flammable materials. LINAK's batteries pose no greater risk than other reputable Li-Ion cells on the market.

Warranty and Liability
If a LINAK Li-Ion battery is found defective under warranty, a replacement will be provided. However, LINAK disclaims liability for any indirect, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages related to thermal runaway risks. This includes profit loss, unrealized savings, or third-party claims, even if advised of potential damages.

Conclusion
While LINAK takes extensive measures to ensure the safety of its Li-Ion batteries, the inherent risks associated with Li-Ion technology remain, and users must take appropriate precautions.

Li-Ion battery disclaimer-2

Li-Ion battery disclaimer Li-Ion batteries are moving in the direction of minimising the physical size and, at the same time, increasing the capacity. This gives a very compact battery with a high energy concentration. It also increases the risk of thermal runaway (see note below) due to internal short circuits. The general use of Li-Ion batteries has increased, and the inherent risk of thermal runaway has led to stricter rules within the transport industry, specifically air transport with tightened restrictions on the quantity, handling, and storage of specific products. The OEMs and consumers...
