CATERPILLAR 320 | VEHICLE FIRE SUPPRESSION

A Dual Agent Automatic Fire Suppression System has been installed on a Caterpillar 320 Excavator, delivering superior fire protection for operations in the waste and recycling sector managing household waste.

How Fireward’s Dual Agent System Works:

Our Dual Agent system uses a combination of dry powder and wet chemical suppression agents to provide comprehensive fire safety:

• Dry Powder delivers rapid fire knockdown and suppresses hidden fires in hard-to-reach areas.

• Wet Chemical cools superheated engine components, preventing reignition through strategically placed nozzles in the engine bay.

Additional Features:

In-Cab Monitor - Alerts the operator when a fire is detected and suppressed
Manual Actuator - Allows manual activation of the system in an emergency
