Causes of Fires in Road Transport Vehicles
One of the most common causes of fires in transport vehicles is electrical short circuits. Short circuits can be caused by malfunctions in the electrical system or deterioration of the wiring, leading to fires which spread rapidly, above all in vehicles transporting flammable materials. Lack of or insufficient maintenance and improper use of a vehicle can cause the engine to overheat. If an engine is not properly cooled, for example, this can lead to fire in the event of very high temperatures. Accumulation of fuel or oil in the engine compartment also increases the risk of fire.
Firecom’s aerosol fire extinguishing system is the most effective solution, compared to traditional systems, to effectively protect road transport vehicles.
