Large vehicles, particularly those used in mining and construction, represent substantial investments for firms in these industries. The cost of replacing a large vehicle damaged by fire can be a significant financial setback. Similarly, authorities need to ensure reliable and safe working conditions for operators. To safeguard both these assets and the people who depend on them, the installation of a Vehicle Suppression System is crucial. This system is designed to be installed in the engine compartment and other areas identified as potential fire risks through risk analysis. It deploys a kinetically charged Foam Mist Extinguishing Agent, tailored to the specific environment the vehicle operates in.
Linear Heat Detection Tubes are employed to detect and initiate suppression in case of fire. These systems offer several advantages, including resilience to temperature variations and movement, high reliability, quick and easy recharging after activation, minimal downtime and cleanup, gradual cooling without causing thermal shock, safety for humans, and cost-effective maintenance.
