VEHICLE FIRE SUPPRESSION

This CAT 950GC wheel loader is now protected with Fireward’s Dual Agent automatic fire suppression system, combining dry powder and wet chemical agents to deliver reliable fire protection in the demanding quarry environment.

How Fireward’s Dual Agent System Works

Our Dual Agent system provides rapid and effective fire control by:

• Pneumatic Detection – Tube bursts when exposed to flame, triggering the system

• Dry Powder – Provides rapid flame knockdown

• Wet Chemical – Delivers prolonged cooling of superheated components

• Indirect Release – Suppression agents are discharged through strategically placed nozzles targeting critical areas

Additional Features:

Manual Actuator – Enables manual system activation when required
Equipment Shutdown – Automatically powers down the machine to limit fire escalation
Battery Isolator – Cuts off electrical supply to prevent electrical fires
In-Cab Monitor – Alerts the operator when the system is activated
