The exhaust fumes seriously harm the firemen’s health!
The diesel engine vehicles are preferred for private needs as well as for special transport all over the world. Diesel engines operating in each fire station produce exhaust fumes during ignition and heating of fire and emergency vehicles, on leaving the station and on their return.
Diesel exhaust is a mix of particles and gases containing a lot of hazardous substances. Many of them are carcinogenic (benzene, arsenic, formaldehyde). Exhaust fumes also contain other harmful substances such as nitrogen oxides. In a long term the influence of these fumes is as harmful as the tobacco smoke. The diesel exhaust spread in the places where the firemen are eating, sleeping or working also it is absorbed in their clothes.
The only effective method: capturing and suction directly from tailpipes.
The wrong way The right way
Nederman’s extraction systems are specially designed for emergency and fire vehicles. Exhaust fumes are extracted directly from tailpipes – the only effective way to deal with the problem. More than 100 000 Nederman’s systems which are installed worldwide are proof of this.
TANGRA offers the extraction system Nederman which can satisfy your emergency station’s specific needs and to correspond to your budget no matter the size of your station, sizes/types of vehicles or frequency of operations.
TANGRA has the largest product range on the market and significant experience and knowledge of how to design the optimal solution for your needs.
Under conditions of severe time constraints and a pre-set limited budget, TANGRA-AV Ltd. delivered and installed a MagnaTrack S system for 4 fire trucks and a MagnaTrack ST system for 2 light vehicles (emergency and ambulance) at the Sofia Airport fire station.
You can see how it works in this video.
The MAGNA systems are specifically designed for repeated long-term use under heavy-duty conditions. A single rail system can serve up to 4 fire trucks or ambulances. MAGNA systems are available for both high- or low-mounted exhausts. In the classic version, the suction nozzle securely attaches to a vehicle-mounted anchor using an electromagnet. In the pneumatic version, the nozzle expands to grip the exhaust pipe. This allows different vehicles to be parked at the same station.
The maximum speed a vehicle can reach when leaving the depot is up to 25 km/h.
A single rail can be up to 30 meters long and can also be used in drive-through parking areas, where vehicles always exit through one gate and return through the opposite entrance. If multiple rails are served by a single fan, TANGRA and NEDERMAN offer solutions to regulate its speed, achieving energy savings of up to 28%.
