A-101™/LVS™ Mobile Equipment Fire Suppression Systems


PROTECTING HEAVY EQUIPMENT
CALLS FOR BRUTE FORCE

Before ANSUL® introduced vehicle fire


suppression systems to the mining industry in the
late 1960s, the loss of equipment, productivity
and life to vehicle fire was all too common. Forty
years later, ANSUL protection is the common
factor in this and other high-risk industries.
Around the world, industries that depend on their
heavy equipment trust ANSUL non-road mobile
fire suppression solutions to protect them.

SYSTEMS DESIGNED FOR MODERN REALITIES


Excavators, tunnel boring machines, harvesters,
transit buses and other heavy machines work
around the clock, often in rugged, hazardous
environments. Highly flammable fuels, oils and
hydraulic fluids flow through pressurized lines
within inches of super-heated engine blocks,
manifolds and turbochargers. One ruptured line
can result in fast-spreading fire. With ANSUL
A-101™, LVS™ and A-101/LVS Twin-Agent Fire
Suppression Systems, however, protection is
assured, 24-hours-a-day, 365 days-per-year.

CHEMICAL SYSTEM DRY CHEMICAL SYSTEM
Base ANSUL A-101 systems utilize automatic detection and actuation controls, backed up
by remote manual actuators.

I LT-A-101 expands the capabilities of the original A-101 system for use in temperature
extremes, from -65° to 210° F (-54° to 99° C).

I LT-LP-A-101 low profile system provides protection in underground mining environments.

ANSUL LVS LIQUID AGENT FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM


For the prevention of reflash, ANSUL LVS Liquid Agent Fire Suppression Systems
outperform all others. Stored in 5-gallon (19L), 15-gallon (57L) or 30-gallon (114L) tanks,
LVS agent cools surrounding areas, helping to contain fires and prevent reflash.
Additionally, because it is a liquid, LVS agent flows along the same path as burning fuels
to reach and suppress fires in areas dry agents cannot.

ANSUL LT-A-101/LVS TWIN AGENT FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM


For those who want the combined effects of suppression and cooling, ANSUL FORAY dry
chemical and LVS wet chemical provide the ultimate one-two punch. While the dry chemical is
knocking down flames, superior LVS agent cools surrounding areas, helping minimize the
possibility of reflash. LVS system components are built for corrosion resistance and operate
effectively within a temperature range of –40° to 120° F (-40° to 49° C).

CHECKFIRE® DETECTION AND ACTUATION SYSTEMS
Exclusive ANSUL CHECKFIRE electronic detection and
actuation systems provide detection, alarm, machine
shutdown and actuation — all automatically if so desired.

I CHECKFIRE SC-N (Self-Contained)


Rugged control modules resist shock and vibration, and
feature internal diagnostics and internal/external power
sources. Thermal detection options include linear wire
or spot detectors.

I CHECKFIRE MP-N (Mine Permissible)


Offers all the features of SC-N, plus holds MSHA approvals
for use in underground mines (Permissible Applications in
Explosive Methane/Air Applications).

SHARPEYE™ 20/20 TRIPLE IR DETECTOR


For those who desire an extra layer of protection, ANSUL
SharpEye infrared detection provides advanced triple-IR
flame detection. Added to existing linear wire or spot
detection, the beginnings of fire are detected much more
quickly, allowing suppression to begin that much sooner.
SharpEye features include sensitivity selection, automatic
built-in testing, compact size and 100-degree field of vision.
RS 485 compatible and FM approved. Ask your ANSUL
dealer for more information on the benefits of SharpEye.

PACK RED LINE® BACKUP SUPPORT


As backup to the primary fire suppression system, ANSUL
recommends RED LINE dry chemical cartridge-operated
extinguishers. These rugged, reliable handheld units are a
proven means of extinguishing a wide range of Class A, B and
C fires, and provide that extra measure of protection as
required by authorities having jurisdiction.
