Application area

Trade & Construction

On construction sites, locations, weather conditions and contacts change constantly — dedicated on-site fire protection is often not available at all.

Starting point

The starting situation in this area

RUK Li-Ion Safety Box – example placement in Trade & Construction

Tool batteries are often charged in the site trailer right next to wood, packaging material and other combustible materials. The Li-Ion Safety Box can move with the construction site and creates its own safety zone there.

A construction site has no built-in fire protection, because it is not a finished building. The only safety on site is what each company brings itself — and takes with it when it moves to the next site.

Charging happens in the site cabin or container, because that is the only lockable room with power. The same container holds timber, insulation, packaging and tools. An incident there hits everything at once.

Then the conditions: dust, moisture and temperature swings put extra stress on the charging equipment, after hours nobody is on site, and the trades change. Every subcontractor brings their own batteries and their own habits.

How it works

How it works in practice

01
Take the box to the site
Thanks to its compact, robust build, the RUK Li-Ion Safety Box is easy to take along in the site cabin or container.
02
Charge tool batteries in one place
Instead of improvised charging on benches or in the container, all batteries are charged in one defined, protected place.
03
Keep out weather and dust
IP54 keeps dust and spray away from charging — also in rough outdoor conditions on site.
04
Protect automatically after the shift
Monitoring stays on even when nobody is left after work — until the box moves on to the next site.

Benefits

What the deployment achieves in practice

IP54 protection rating

Designed for use in dusty and splash-water-exposed environments.

Can be used on the move

Can easily be taken along to changing construction sites and locations.

Independent of fixed infrastructure

Also works where no permanent structural fire protection is available.

Protects site trailer and tools

Reduces consequential damage to containers, site trailers and the tools stored inside.

In detail

Typical situation, risk and solution

Typical situation	Risk without protection	With the RUK Li-Ion Safety Box
Tool batteries charge in the site trailer or container	Confined space with a lot of combustible material (wood, packaging) close by	Enclosed charging area with extinguishing system in the same container
Changing construction sites and locations	Permanent fire protection is usually not available on site	Mobile system that moves with the construction site
Dust, moisture and harsh outdoor conditions	Increased stress on charging equipment used outdoors	IP54 protection rating for use in rough conditions
No continuous supervision on the construction site	Incidents after working hours go unnoticed for a long time	Automatic monitoring even outside working hours
Frequent changes of trades and subcontractors on site	Inconsistent handling of batteries, depending on the trade and the contact	One fixed safety standard on site, visible to every trade
Moving the box between several sites in the same period	The level of safety changes with the current site	Compact, mobile design that is easy to transport and set up again
