When it comes to fire safety, having the correct systems, approvals and certification is important. More and more insurance companies now require you to have fire suppression systems to gain coverage.
The P-Mark according to SPCR 183 has been developed for fire suppression systems in engine compartments of buses and coaches. With this global leading approval it ensures that your product can perform at the highest level in the most stringent and challenging conditions. Realistic and repeatable fire tests are performed then all components are put through the industry leading mechanical testing such as vibration, impact, corrosion and temperature cycling. Thorough factory production control of the manufacturer along with regular auditing provide the highest level of confidence with any system bearing the P-Mark logo.
P-Mark according to SPCR 199 has been developed for fire suppression systems in engine compartments of heavy vehicles. This relatively new approval has already been quickly adopted and referenced as the benchmark for heavy vehicles. All of the testing parameters shown in the P-Mark according to SPCR 183 are followed with the addition of a much more demanding pass criteria and extra tests for demonstrating the flexibility and performance of your system. Zero re-ignition is allowed and fire tests can be performed with a level of openness.
The UNECE Regulation 107 was developed to increase the safety of buses & coaches. It is a set of legislative documents that provide the framework through technical prescriptions and guidance documents for any contracting parties.
