Skid Cutting Extinguishing System

Description

The RFC CUTTEX is an ultra-high pressure extinguishing system with the function of water jet cutting, which combines the steps of cutting and extinguishing in one system. It was developed to safely and efficiently extinguish fires with a low fire load such as container fires, vehicle fires or fires in silos without having to create a large area access to the source of the fire in the first phase of firefighting. Even challenging situations such as fires in ventilation systems or suspended ceilings with angled and elongated structures can be overcome through the fine water mist.

Benefits

Increased safety

no need to create a large area access to the source of the fire in the first phase of firefighting and therefore less risk for the firefighters
significantly reduced exposure of firefighters to soot particles
prevents backdraft as no oxygen is introduced during the extinguishing process

Tactical advantage

fast and safe access to the fire room is almost always provided
there is no need for a complex and time-consuming creation of a large area access by the firefighters during the fire fighting process
unreachable fires in angled and elongated objects are reached with the fine water mist

Impressive efficiency

massive cooling performance due to the larger heat absorption surface of the fine droplet water mist
less extinguishing water requirements and rapid operational success due to a short-time and high cooling performance
significant damage reduction due to reduced fire and water damage

Flexible dual use

depending on the application scenario it can be used as a cutting extinguishing system for internal fires or as an ultra-high pressure extinguishing system for external fires
tool-free adaptation of the nozzle by mounting the cutting jet via a bayonet lock and the abrasive container via a quick-release fastener
