Understanding the Threat: Equipment Fires in High-Risk Industries
In industries such as mining, construction, and fleet logistics, heavy-duty equipment is the lifeline of operations. These machines operate under high pressure, extreme temperatures, and in demanding environments – all of which increase the risk of catastrophic fires.
According to FireScience.com, over 40% of industrial equipment fires are caused by hydraulic fluid leaks and engine overheating. And in environments filled with combustible materials and complex machinery, a single fire incident can result in the destruction of entire fleets, massive operational shutdowns, and millions in damages.
Why Are Industrial Equipment Fires So Devastating?
Hydraulic Fluid Leaks
Hydraulic systems operate under extremely high pressure. Even a small leak can result in atomized oil mist, which ignites instantly when exposed to friction or hot surfaces.
Engine Overheating
Overworked or poorly maintained engines can easily overheat. Without sufficient fire suppression systems, these fires spread rapidly to surrounding components, cables, and flammable materials.
Inaccessible Manual Extinguishers
When fire breaks out in confined or engine areas, operators often can’t reach traditional fire extinguishers in time – especially in panic situations or when visibility is reduced by smoke.
The Hartex Solution: Automatic Fire Suppression System (AFS)
At Hartex, we offer a smart, fast-acting Automatic Fire Suppression System (AFS) designed for extreme conditions found in heavy industries.
Instant Fire Detection & Suppression
Hartex AFS is built to detect and extinguish fires automatically – often before the operator even realizes there’s a problem. The system activates immediately when a sudden temperature spike or open flame is detected
Advanced Heat Sensing Technology
Our system uses intelligent thermal sensors that monitor critical zones like engine compartments, battery banks, and hydraulic systems in real time. These sensors are calibrated for high-accuracy response.
Reliable & Tested by Industry Leaders
Hartex systems are already in use by top mining, construction, and industrial operators across high-risk regions. We prioritize safety, durability, and compliance with global fire safety standards.
