Abstract: A battery device (3) is provided. The battery device comprises a casing having a plurality of sides (10a-10f) including a bottom side, a top side opposite to said bottom side, two lateral sides, a front side, and a rear side opposite to said front side, wherein the plurality of sides are assembled to form a sealed container, and a battery cell pack (20) located within the sealed container. The casing comprises at least one outlet (31) arranged at at least one of the plurality of sides. The sealed container is configured to prevent heated gases generated upon a malfunction of the battery cell pack from escaping the casing except via the at least one outlet. The battery device further comprises a filter (13) arranged at said at least one outlet for limiting at least flames from escaping the casing, and terminals for connection of the battery device to a load, another battery device or an external power source, arranged at the front side, and wherein said at least one outlet is arranged at the rear side of the casing.
