Embodiments of this application provide a fire-fighting switch device and a fire-fighting system, which are applied to the field of fire-fighting. The fire-fighting switch device includes a plurality of fire detection switch units, where the fire detection switch unit includes one or more fire detection switches, the one or more fire detection switches form at least one switch path, the fire detection switch is configured to turn on when a fire is detected, and any one of the switch paths is configured to transmit a voltage signal to a fire-extinguishing device when all of the fire detection switches on the switch path are turned on. In this solution, when a fire is detected by one fire detection switch unit, the fire-extinguishing device can be controlled to extinguish the fire provided that all fire detection switches on one switch path in the fire detection switch unit are turned on.

A fire suppression system for a vehicle includes a housing, multiple battery cells positioned within the housing, an off-gas detector, and a controller. The off-gas detector is provided within the housing and is configured to detect a presence of off-gas in the housing. The controller is configured to receive signals from the off-gas detector indicating whether off-gas is detected in the housing, and activate a fire suppression apparatus to provide fire suppressant agent to any of an exterior or interior of the housing in response to detecting off-gas in the housing.

A system for mitigating fire within a battery storage container enclosing an energy storage system includes a sensor configured to detect a precursor condition indicative of a potential fire or explosion, a controller, and a set of extendable battery trays, each including a tray ejector and containing a set of battery cells. The controller detects a precursor condition in a battery tray via the sensor and ejects the battery tray to increase the distance between the battery tray and adjacent battery trays. The system can include a cooling channel in the battery tray configured to cool the set of battery cells, and/or a nozzle configured to direct fluid into the battery tray to suppress the precursor condition. In one variation, the system includes a door of the container configured to open, venting the interior of the container in response to detection of a precursor condition indicating a potential explosion.
