Vehicle Fire Suppression Systems – Transport & Heavy Equipment

ANSUL Vehicle Fire Suppression Systems provide around-the-clock protection to excavators, tunnel boring machines, harvesters, transit buses and other heavy vehicles working under pressure in rugged, hazardous environments. Highly flammable fuels, oils and hydraulic fluids flow through pressurised lines within inches of super-heated engine blocks, manifolds and turbochargers. One ruptured line can result in fast-spreading fire. Torvac Solutions are an authorised supplier and installer of ANSUL products for Vehicle Fire Suppression and can advise you on the right fire protection strategy for your heavy vehicle assets.

A-101/LVS Twin Agent Vehicle Fire Suppression System

The combined performance of the A-101/LVS Twin-Agent Vehicle Fire Suppression System provides the ultimate protection. While the FORAY dry chemical knocks down flames, the LVS agent cools surrounding areas, minimising the possibility of reflash. The Vehicle Fire Suppression system safeguards substantial off-road construction and mining equipment, including large excavators/shovels, haul trucks, and wheeled loaders. The system protects underground mining equipment and speciality vehicles such as slag pot and/or slab carriers and tunnel boring machines. Waste management equipment and forestry vehicles are also protected.

Utilize FORAY multipurpose dry chemical agent to combat fires in combustible materials like wood, cloth, paper, rubber, and various plastics (Class A). Moreover, employ it to extinguish fires in flammable liquids, gases, and greases (Class B). Also fires involving energized electrical equipment (Class C).

LVS agent is a wet chemical agent that is a unique blend of organic and inorganic salts, coupled with surface-active ingredients. This blend provides a strong measure of freeze protection along with the foaming properties associated with conventional Class B liquid agents. The agent flows readily into areas where flammable liquids may settle. It provides both fire suppression and superior cooling of superheated surfaces. It also forms a blankets the fuel, cutting off oxygen to help prevent reflash. The FM Approved twin-agent combination has been proven effective in applications where superheated equipment, like a turbocharger, is used.
