Explospot Systems enhances safety in the military industry by providing advanced automatic explosion and fire suppression systems that are tailored for use in military vehicles and critical infrastructure. Here’s a breakdown of how these systems contribute to protecting machines and personnel in high-risk environments:

Rapid Fire and Explosion Suppression

 High-Speed Detection & Activation

  • Explospot’s sensors detect explosions, fire and heat spikes within milliseconds.

  • The system instantly triggers the release of a suppression agent (often clean agent gasses, dry powder or liquid-based) that extinguishes fires before they propagate.

 

Explosion Mitigation

  • In armoured vehicles transporting ammunition or fuel, Explospot’s Automatic Fire and Explosion Suppression System (AFESS) can suppress the explosion propagation, acting as last-resort safeguards.

  • This is particularly useful in the event of roadside RPG hits, petrol bombs or drone attacks.

 Protection for Crew Compartments

Compartmentalized Safety Zones

  • The systems are designed to protect specific vehicle sections such as:

    • Crew cabin

    • Engine bay

    • Ammunition and flammable substance storage areas

Life-Saving Measures

  • Protects soldiers by preventing fire and explosion propagation into occupied zones.

  • Greatly increases survivability in armoured vehicles like IFVs, MRAPs, and tanks.

Integration with Modern Military Platforms

Modular and Customizable

  • Explospot’s technology is modular and can be integrated with:

    • Light and heavy armoured vehicles

    • Mobile command centres

    • Armoured personnel carriers (APCs)

    • Engineering and logistics support vehicles

Compatibility with NATO & SANDF Equipment

  • Explospot Systems offers tailored systems that meet South African National Defence Force (SANDF) requirements and align with NATO standards for vehicle safety and fire suppression.

Field-Proven Technology & Durability

Designed for Harsh Conditions

  • Works under extreme conditions — dust, vibrations, shocks, and electromagnetic interference.

  • Regularly tested under combat simulation environments to ensure reliability in live battlefield conditions.

Minimal Maintenance, High Reliability

  • Systems require minimal upkeep and offer self-diagnostics and inspection routines, increasing uptime during deployments.

Innovation & Life-Saving Focus

Innovation in Safety

  • Slogan: “Innovating safety. Saving lives.”

  • Emphasizes proactive safety rather than reactive firefighting, shifting the paradigm in combat vehicle design.
