Fire Protection For
Landfill Equipment
Landfill equipment
operates in a rugged and tough environment that has unique fire hazards. Equipment
fires put capital investment and production at risk. To prevent fire losses, this
equipment requires special fire protection. The hydraulic oil leaks or trash accumulations
become fuels that ignite quickly, engulfing the engine compartment in flames. An
onboard AFEX Fire Suppression System provides a prompt response to knock down fires and
reduce fire damage.
AFEX systems are installed on
trash compactors, dozers, wheel loaders, excavators and even refuse haulers. The
AFEX system is durable, reliable and low maintenance. The solid waste industry
has always been one of the primary markets for AFEX distributors. AFEX
distributors are trained and experienced professionals who know heavy equipment
and are comfortable working in a landfill environment.
AFEX customers in this
industry include numerous landfills and transfer stations across the US operated
by Republic Services, Waste Industries, Onyx, Waste Management, and Allied Waste/BFI.
