E Fire Ball adds new layer of fire safety, mitigation

Good locations for the E Fire Ball

The EFB can be used for active or passive fire mitigation and prevention. Actively, a professional user such as a first responder or firefighter can throw the ball toward flames, engaging the release of fire suppression material. For passive fire mitigation, each EFB includes a mounting bracket and can be mounted in various locations. It can be attached to a building's wall and connected to existing fire alarms, smoke detectors and security systems for enhanced protection, or installed directly in a machine's engine compartment. Large farm machinery like combines are ideal applications for an EFB. Mounting one inside a combine’s engine compartment can help prevent combine fires and give peace of mind that you’ll have an early warning if something like an overheated bearing or crop residue ignites.

“Fire mitigation and prevention isn’t always top-of-mind, especially during busy times on the farm, like harvest. But a fire department is responding to a fire in the U.S. every 24 seconds. Sometimes people don’t think about the potential property losses and operational downtime from even a small fire,” said Chuck Thompson, Director of Fire Safety Solutions, E Fire USA. “Fire Balls are cost-effective tools that give you peace of mind that you have an added layer of awareness and mitigation. And it may save your business, property or even life.”
