Illustratively, the cell voltage threshold is 1.5V and the cell temperature threshold is 100 ℃.
The first signal of flame means that flame is detected and a flame alarm signal is sent out.
In one embodiment, after controlling the second valve to remain closed and controlling the first valve, the first fan and the first ventilator to open, the method further comprises:
if a second gas signal or a second fire alarm signal or a second battery cell signal is received, controlling the second valve to be kept closed, and controlling the first valve, the first fan and the first air exchange device to be closed; the gas second signal is used for indicating that the gas concentration data is smaller than a second gas threshold, the fire alarm second signal is used for indicating that the fire alarm data is smaller than a second fire alarm threshold, and the battery core second signal is used for indicating that the battery core data is smaller than a second battery core threshold.
Specifically, the second gas signal, the second gas threshold, the second fire alarm signal, the second fire alarm threshold, the second electric core signal, and the second electric core threshold correspond to the first gas signal, the first gas threshold, the first fire alarm signal, the first fire alarm threshold, the first electric core signal, and the first electric core threshold, respectively, the second gas threshold is a critical value at which the gas concentration belongs to a normal range, the second fire alarm threshold is a critical value at which the temperature or smoke in the housing is normal, and the second electric core threshold is a critical value at which the temperature or voltage of the electric core is normal. The first gas threshold is greater than or equal to the second gas threshold, the first fire alarm threshold is greater than or equal to the second fire alarm threshold, and the first cell threshold is greater than or equal to the second cell threshold.
In one embodiment, the first valve, the second fan and the first air interchanger are controlled to be closed, and after the second valve is controlled to be opened, the method further comprises the following steps:

Specifically, the second signal of the flame corresponds to the first signal of the flame, and the second signal of the flame is a signal that the flame is not monitored.
As shown in fig. 3, when the gas detector 16 detects that the concentration of harmful gas such as toxic gas or combustible gas inside the housing 11 reaches a set lower concentration threshold (that is, the first gas threshold is generally 25% as the alarm threshold of combustible gas), the gas detector 16 sends an alarm signal (that is, a first gas signal) to the controller 17, and after the controller 17 receives the alarm signal, when the inside of the housing 11 needs to be ventilated, the controller 17 controls the first valve 142 and the third valve to be opened, controls the alarm 18 to operate and alarm, and sends an alarm message to a worker through the communication port 19. Assuming that the first ventilator 13 supplies air to the inside of the housing 11, the controller 13 controls the first fan 143 to start to draw air to the outside of the housing 11 to generate wind pressure, so as to drive fresh air to enter the inside of the housing 11 from the third valve, and the harmful gas enters the fire fighting pipeline 12 through the nozzle of the fire fighting branch pipe 122 (in fig. 3, the harmful gas enters the fire fighting pipeline through a part of the nozzle), passes through the exhaust branch pipe 141 and the first valve 142, and is discharged to the outside of the housing 11; when the concentration of the harmful gas falls below the set threshold (i.e. the second gas threshold, for example, the set threshold of combustible gas may be 10%), the controller 17 controls the first fan 143 to stop working, and controls the first valve 142 and the third valve, and the alarm 18 to close. It will be appreciated that in the event that the first air exchange means 13 is used to supply air to the interior of the enclosure 11, and the first air exchange means 13 comprises a second fan, the controller 17 controls the second fan and the first fan 143 to be reversed in direction to ensure that the second air exchange means 14 exhausts the air from the interior of the enclosure 11.
With continued reference to fig. 3, when the controller 17 receives the alarm signals (i.e., the first fire alarm signal) from the temperature detector and the smoke detector in the fire detector 17, the controller 17 controls both the first valve 142 and the third valve to open, controls the alarm 18 to alarm, and sends the alarm information to the staff through the communication port 19. The working processes of the first valve 142 and the third valve refer to the above embodiments, and are not described herein again.
When the controller 17 receives a first cell signal (i.e., for example, the cell temperature is greater than 100 ℃ and the cell voltage is less than 1.5V) sent by the BMS, the controller 17 controls the first valve 142 and the third valve to be opened, controls the alarm 18 to alarm, and sends alarm information to a worker through the communication port 19. The working processes of the first valve 142 and the third valve refer to the above embodiments, and are not described herein again.
As shown in fig. 4, when the controller 17 receives an alarm signal (i.e., a first signal of a fire) from a flame detector in the fire detector 17, the controller 17 controls the second valve 121 to open, fire water or gas enters the interior of the housing 11 through the fire fighting pipe 12, sprays water through the spray heads of the respective fire branch pipes 122 to start fire extinguishing (a part of the spray heads are shown in fig. 4), and controls the alarm 18 to operate and alarm through the controller 17, and sends an alarm message to the worker through the communication port 19. When the fire extinguishing (that is, the second signal of the flame is received) is completed and the temperature is reduced, the second valve 121 is controlled to be closed, the first valve 142 and the third valve are controlled to be opened (if the fire burns out the lines of the conventional power supply and the uninterruptible power supply, the second valve 121 can be manually closed, the first valve 142 and the third valve can be manually opened), the first fan 143 is opened (if the fire burns out the lines of the conventional power supply and the uninterruptible power supply, the external power supply is provided for the first fan 143), air is sucked out of the shell 11 for a period of time (the specific time duration can be determined according to the exhaust rate), and after harmful gas possibly existing in the shell 11 is exhausted, people enter the shell for treatment again.
