Which Fire Suppression System is best for you?
Foam Water, Dry Chemical Powder, Aerosol, Water Mist or Wet Chemical?
AS5062 – Fire protection for mobile and transportable equipment is the guiding standard to formalize good practice in reducing the incidence and severity of fires and, to provide a consistent approach to fire risk reduction in order to safeguard life, property and the environment against fire associated with mobile and transportable equipment.
Australian broadacre harvest conditions are arguably amongst the most hazardous in the world for fires. Each year there are hundreds of harvester fire incidents, and many million dollar machines burn to the ground at harvest! In some instances, there are associated crop losses as well that substantially exceed the machine cost.
Altogether the costs of harvester fires are substantial. Insurers are stepping up their insurance premiums on harvest machinery. In a land of extreme fire hazards, the mix of combustible material, heat, often low humidity and wind at the harvest season, fire prevention is of the utmost importance. Of equal importance is fire control.
Portable fire extinguishers are critical, but equally, so is the sensible use of a pre-engineered fire suppression system. It is a widely accepted industry standard on harvesting equipment and strongly recommended by research groups and insurers. Although Argos Fire Safety Pty Ltd recommends the Foam Water systems as the most effective for cooling and suppression, we also offer other types of systems where other considerations need to be accommodated.
