Modern agricultural machinery is both highly advanced and highly valuable.
The loss of a machine even for a short period of time can be very costly and may involve the need for additional labour and large hire expenses.
Fire is an ever present risk for these machines and not only can it severely damage equipment but can also pose a threat to the operators, the crop and to other nearby vehicles. The risk can be even greater when working in confined areas like poly-tunnels, barns or grain stores where fire can spread rapidly and egress is not always straight forward.
With machinery operators in modern air conditioned cabs it is not always easy to quickly spot a problem and once a fire has become established it can be very difficult or impossible to control using hand held extinguishers.
Firetrace offer affordable fire suppression systems to protect engine bays, hydraulic systems and electrical components on agricultural machinery. The Firetrace system reacts quickly, minimising expensive damage and downtime by not only detecting the fire but putting it out where it starts.
The Firetrace systems use small amounts of extinguishant and can be fitted in a convenient location on the farm machinery. The systems can be easily retrofitted to existing equipment providing a cost effective solution.
We have more than two decades of experience in the industry and offer a full after sales and installation service. Our fire extinguishing systems all carry the CE kite mark and meet ISO 9001:2015 quality standards. Not only this, but Firetrace ® systems also benefit from being accepted by some of the biggest names in the UK insurance industry.
Our fire suppression system design and technical team have many years experience in designing systems to suit specific applications.
