SAPFIR LOCO installations are performed wherever it is possible to get there by car. The installation is performed by 1-2 SAPFIR technicians. Installations as well as the service checks are performed, in most cases, directly on the rails between transfers to individual locomotive orders. Specifically in this case, it is a simple variant of an automatic extinguishing of the locomotive consisting of two separate extinguishing zones.
Zone No. 1 contains 2x MPH-2.8T with a total extinguishing capacity of a 130 m3 engine. This is monitored by the TPS-02TC-180 temperature sensor which automatically starts extinguishing if the temperature exceeds 180 ° C. The operator can also begin the manual extinguishing of the engine through the manual starter TPS-01-M.
Zone No.2; extinguishing hydraulic pump + hydraulic lines. The TPS-01TC-72 temperature sensor automatically begins extinguishing 1x MPH-2.8T with a total capacity of 65 m3 after exceeding the temperature of 72 ° C.
The guaranteed functionality of the extinguishing system is 12 years.
