Product description
Statistics confirm that many buses catch fire; most bus fires start in the engine compartment. These fires often evolve quickly and leave little time to evacuate the passengers. If the fire is not suppressed, it might cause fatalities and significant losses.
A tested and certified vehicle fire suppression system, combined with a reliable fire detection system, is the best first line of defence in an emergency such as a thermal incident.
As a solution to specific risks related to batteries in electric and hybrid buses, Dafo Vehicle has developed the SafEV™ early warning detection solution. The system will detect potential battery failure, at the earliest possible stage and take immediate action by cooling. This will effectively stop, or delay, a potentially hazardous situation without the fire developing further.
