AFEX Fire Suppression Systems has launched its next-generation Compact Panel for fire suppression systems on heavy equipment with smaller cabs and limited installation space. The redesigned monitor panel introduces an integrated on-panel press-to-discharge actuation button for immediate system discharge.
“Operators working in compact and mid-sized equipment face the same fire risks as larger machines, but often with fewer space and power options available,” said Angel Diaz, electrical engineer at AFEX.
“The next-generation Compact Panel was developed to deliver a reliable, easy-to-use solution that supports fast response and consistent performance in these environments – without adding unnecessary complexity.”
New enhancements include:
- Flexible power options, supporting internal battery power, external machine power, or both.
- Extended battery life, delivering up to 12 months of standalone operation.
- IP65-rated environmental protection for reliable performance in harsh conditions.
- Enhanced durability and mounting design to withstand vibration, dust and temperature extremes.
- Backwards compatibility with existing AFEX system configurations.
