Fire Risks in Mining Operations

Complexity, danger and physical aspects of engine fire: As the need to reduce emissions increases (Tier 4f and EPA 2013), higher fuel pressure causes the temperature in the engine compartment to rise sharply. Statistics show that nearly 55% of mine fires originate from vehicle fires, primarily caused by hot surfaces and overheating.

Mining operations are highly sensitive to unplanned downtime. Igniting an engine fire involving diesel and hydraulic oil under high pressure can lead to catastrophic events, vehicle damage, and safety risks to drivers.

Product Activated Principle
01

Detection: The detection tube ruptures when the temperature reaches 140ºC, releasing pressure through the hole. Alternatively, the manual button can be pushed to release pressure.

02

Activation: The resulting drop in pressure causes the head valve to activate. Simultaneously, the fire alarm is triggered.

03

Discharge: The valve opens and the extinguishing agent is discharged through the tubing to the nozzles.

04

Suppression: The agent covers the engine area, suppressing the fire quickly and thoroughly. The system is totally independent of electricity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the system require an external power source?
No, the system is completely automatic and operates based on temperature detection. It is totally independent of electricity, making it reliable in harsh mining environments.
What is the activation temperature of the system?
The system is designed to activate automatically when the detection tube reaches a temperature of 140ºC.
What extinguishing agents are available?
Depending on the specific requirements of the engine room, you can choose between 3% AFFF Foam, FM200, or Dry Powder systems.
How do I choose the right size for my equipment?
Equipment selection (6L, 9L, 12L, 20L, 25L, or 50L) is determined based on the engine displacement and the size of the compartment being protected.
Can the system be activated manually?
Yes, in addition to automatic thermal activation, the system includes a manual button that can be used to release pressure and trigger the suppression agent immediately.
What types of machinery is this system suitable for?
It is specifically designed for heavy-duty mining machines, underground mining equipment, and various vehicle engine rooms where high-pressure fuel and oils pose a fire risk.
