Fogmaker North America LLC
Fogmaker
A patented fire suppression system that uses water mist as an alternative to the existing dry powder and chemical systems, Fogmaker has been used on transit buses and other applications for the last 15 years. A high-pressure mist is deployed in seconds by a nitrogen-charged accumulator and eliminates the heat, oxygen and fuel combustion in the engine compartment when a fire is detected. It can drop the temperature from 1,600 F to under 200 F in just a few seconds, keeping much of the wiring, plastic, fiberglass and other components from melting or being made inoperable.
