Fire Suppression Systems

SELF CONTAINED

firerover clean copy

Overview

The Fire Rover Self-Contained Suppression Unit is a fully engineered, containerised firefighting system that combines thermal detection, human verification, and remote-controlled suppression in a single all-in-one package.

Designed for high-risk waste and recycling facilities, this system constantly scans the environment using FLIR thermal cameras and HD visual feeds to spot early signs of fire. Once heat anomalies are detected, Fire Rover’s trained specialists verify the threat and remotely activate a targeted suppression cannon capable of dousing the fire base with a high-flow mix of water and firefighting foam.

Built to operate under extreme temperatures and environmental conditions, the Self-Contained Suppression system eliminates false alarms, provides real-time visibility, and ensures rapid response before small hot spots escalate into facility-wide fires.
