Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus capable of suppressing a fire of a battery pack when a fire occurs at the battery pack. The fire suppression apparatus includes a fire detection sensor for detecting the probability of fire occurrence at a battery pack, a fire-extinguishing chemical tank containing a fire-extinguishing chemical in an inner space therein, and a control unit for allowing the fire-extinguishing chemical of the fire-extinguishing chemical tank into the battery pack when fire occurrence is detected by the fire detection sensor.
