ExAct Titan brings new ideas into military fire suppression
ExAct Titan is a pioneering fire suppression system that extends the use of a bus-based operations model to mobile military applications. The system uses advanced, military-specific CAN (Controller Area Network) technology. The design of the system is modular, the system consisting of standardized, addressable components.
The ExAct Titan system components form an addressable CAN bus loop starting from and ending at the ExAct Titan Control Unit. The use of CAN bus technology ensures fast and reliable communication between the system components. As a result, the system is always up to date and capable of immediate response. Additionally, even if the cable loop is hit by a fragment, the system will continue to operate.
ExAct Titan integrates with vehicle control systems (vehicle management systems, C4I etc.). The system responds to changes in vehicle operation and adapts its operation accordingly. The system operates differently e.g. when the vehicle is in motion or when the vehicle is parked and unoccupied. ExAct Titan also transmits critical information to vehicle systems.
The ExAct Titan system quickly detects and suppresses all fires
The ExAct Titan Fire Suppression System for armoured military vehicles detects and suppresses all fires, whether slowly growing or instantaneous, small or large. Explosive fires and armour penetrations are detected and suppressed in milliseconds and slow-growth fires in a couple of seconds. Improved fire safety makes it possible for the crew to stay in the vehicle if a fire occurs.
The reliable operation of the ExAct Titan system is based on several factors. These include fast and secure local bus communication, intelligent component design, and advanced built-in self-testing and self-diagnostics. The ExAct Titan system is further characterized by high false alarm immunity and low maintenance requirement.
Because the system comprises only six different component types, the need for spare parts is minimized. Furthermore, the system is easy to use and maintain, and the need for training is minimal.
All in all, the ExAct Titan military fire suppression system succeeds in combining modular system design, CAN bus technology and excellent fire detection and fire suppression capabilities into superior fire protection performance.
