MODEL NO: EV500, EV1000
Thank you for purchasing a Sealey product. Manufactured to a high standard, this product will, if used according to these instructions,
and properly maintained, give you years of trouble free performance.
1. SAFETY
1.1. PERSONAL SAFETY
Wear re-resistant clothing, gloves, etc. to avoid injury when using the re blanket. These instructions are provided as a guide only.
Always refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s service instructions, or a proprietary manual, to establish the current procedure and data.
Inspect the re blanket for damage before use. IMPORTANT: Once in position, the blanket should not be removed until emergency
services have assessed the situation.
1.2. OXYGEN DEPRIVATION
EV re blankets work by cutting o the oxygen supply to the re, which starves the re of the oxygen it needs to continue burning. This
helps to rapidly extinguish the re and prevent it from spreading.
NOTE: In electric vehicles, even without oxygen the lithium battery will continue burning. We therefore recommend that a re blanket
be kept on the tow truck when transporting electric vehicles.
1.3. QUICK RESPONSE
EV re blankets are designed to be quickly deployed in the event of a re, allowing for rapid containment and extinguishing of the re.
1.4. REUSABLE
Please note the EV500 is for single-use only. The EV1000 can be reused up to 5 times if the blanket has been closely inspected and
fabric is not compromised.
2. INTRODUCTION

method to contain flames, smoke and toxic fumes. Suitable for isolating and extinguishing high temperature fires produced from EV
car batteries. Effectively starves oxygen to control self-oxygenating EV battery fires and prevents damage of thermal runaway and
