Product category :Tank & Armoured Fighting Vehicle Electronic Systems

Advanced Instant Fire detection and Suppression System (AIFDSS) is a 32-bit processor based Fire detection and suppression system.

Two types of sensors are being used for detection of fire:

a) Smart IR detectors are used for detection of fire in the crew compartment.
b) In engine compartment, a pair of linear thermal detector (Fire Wire) is used which continuously monitors the temperature of the engine compartment.

Based on the information sent by Smart IR Detector Units & Fire Wire for crew & engine compartment respectively, the fire extinguishers are actuated. Automated fire extinguishers with Halon 1301 are used for suppression of fire. The Audio visual indications of overheat/fire in respective compartments also glows on display panel.

Salient features of the system:

  • 32-bit processor based system
  • Fire detection & suppression time in crew compartment ≤ 130 ms & in engine compartment ≤ 10s
  • It has 2×16 LCD Display or better
  • Smart IR Detector Units
  • Time-stamped Data logging facility
  • Audio-visual alarm indication in case of overheat and fire condition
  • Built in test equipment (BITE) facilityHealth monitoring of Detector & Interface Units, Sensors & system modules
  • False alarm free operation
  • Continuous pressure monitoring of Fire extinguishers
  • System Compliance:
    •  Environment Specifications: JSS 55555:2020
    •  EMI/EMC: MIL Std 461G
    • Ingress protection: IP66 as per IS 60529
