Typical Systems
A typical Fire and Explosion Detection and Suppression system is comprised of modular components designed to fit into any type of armored vehicle. The system incorporates explosion/fire detection and fast suppression technologies. Special systems are designed for the crew/troop compartments (where several soldiers occupy the area) and different systems for the engine compartment (which is usually a much smaller area).
 |
Combined Combat SystemThe system is an Automatic Fire/Fuel Explosion Detection and Suppression
System, for the Combat Vehicle covering both its crew and engine
compartments. In the crew compartment, the system protects personnel by reducing
pressure build-up resulting from fuel explosions, limiting the skin damage and
minimizing formation of toxic gaseous by-products. In the engine compartment,
the system has the capability of detecting overheat and fire and of successfully
extinguishing fires, at all possible working conditions of the engine. |
|
Compact Tactical Vehicle SystemThe Compact system is specifically designed for MRAP Tactical Vehicles providing
increased survivability against fires initiated by IED's and penetrating
munitions. It comprises a unique detector/controller coupled with extinguishers
and an additional optional detector. |
|
Troop/Crew Compartment systemThe Crew Compartment systems are based on High Speed Optical UV/IR
Flame Detectors, sensitive to slow growth fires as well as vehicle penetration, free of false alarms that respond to fire in under 5
milliseconds, communicating with reliable control system with normal and combat
modes and activating extinguishing cylinders with high speed valves dispersing
the extinguishing agent within 5 milliseconds and allowing for a second shot
capability. |
|
Tactical Engine CompartmentThe systems are based on spot heat detectors and fast
suppression technologies. The system is designed to fit
specific engine configurations |
