System description
General
“M-Fire” is equipment designed to allow training and practice in extinguishing various types of small fires. A
number of separate burner units are available in addition to the standard burner unit with various fire options
and accompanying attachments, so that several practical situations can be simulated in a realistic manner.
The Mobifit and M-Fire units are therefore particularly suitable for the training of in-house emergency and
first-aid officers etc.
Water, CO2 and foam can be used as extinguishing agents. Powder should
not
be used as an extinguisher.
The use of powder extinguishing agents results in excessive corrosion, reducing the usable life and
necessitating a lot of extra maintenance and cleaning.
The standard M-Fire operation console has wheels and handles to aid transportation. When used in a
practice building or another project-based construction, it is sometimes possible to integrate the controls
instead of using the standard console.
The M-Fire burner units are intended for installation in fixed locations.
If this is in an enclosed space, you must take the necessary precautionary measures as described in
section 2.
Construction of system
The burner unit consists of a stainless-steel housing containing two burners for the purposes of
simulating realistic fires for the unit concerned. The burners can be used individually or in combination.
M-Fire Bed
Burner 1 = pillow, Burner 2 = bedside table
M-Fire Desk
Burner 1 = desktop, Burner 2 = drawer
M-Fire Lab
Burner 1 = surface fire, Burner 2 = pointed flame (on the left-
hand side at the back)
A gas valve is placed at the bottom right of the M-Fire to close
off the gas supply.
