[THESAFEKOREA] Forklift fire response by one person with SAFEDOME

Forklift fire response by one person with SAFEDOME

Recent fire incidents at large logistics centers and industrial sites have drawn increasing attention to the need for stronger workplace fire response systems.

Logistics centers and manufacturing facilities contain various potential fire hazards, including electrical equipment, stored materials, and battery-charging facilities.

Forklifts are essential for transporting materials and carrying out daily operations. However, because they use batteries and electrical components, facilities must be equipped with appropriate initial-response equipment in preparation for potential fires.

Today, we would like to introduce the SAFEDOME-LMW3.4H Forklift Model, an initial fire response system for forklifts that was recently supplied to the Hyundai Home Shopping Logistics Center.

SAFEDOME is an initial fire response system designed to help prevent flames and heat from spreading to surrounding areas in the event of a vehicle or forklift fire. It can be moved into position and closed around the affected equipment by a single operator.
The SAFEDOME-LMW3.4H Forklift Model is specifically designed to accommodate the greater height, structure, and dimensions of forklifts compared with standard vehicles. It can be deployed at industrial sites where forklifts are operated, including logistics centers, factories, and warehouses.

In large logistics centers or industrial facilities, it may be difficult to place dedicated fire response equipment near every forklift.

The mobile SAFEDOME can be stored in a designated location during normal operations and quickly moved to the location of the affected forklift in the event of a fire.

A single adult operator can move SAFEDOME approximately 20 meters in under 10 seconds. Upon reaching the forklift, the operator can use the auxiliary mechanism to enclose the forklift with the system in approximately 10 seconds.

SAFEDOME is equipped with a connection port that allows a fire hydrant hose to be attached.

Once connected to a fire hydrant, the internal water spray system helps lower the temperature inside SAFEDOME and reduce the spread of fire.

Depending on the situation, SAFEDOME can also be moved while spraying water, helping reduce exposure to flames and heat as the operator approaches the forklift where the fire has occurred.

Rapid initial response with SAFEDOME can help professional firefighters carry out follow-up operations more effectively upon arrival and minimize potential damage.

We hope SAFEDOME’s capabilities and practical on-site usability will strengthen fire response preparedness at industrial facilities and contribute to creating safer workplaces.

Vehicle fire early response prevented major damage Recently, a vehicle fire occurred in an apartment parking garage in Godeok-dong, Gangdong-gu, Seoul. Although the fire broke out during the early morning hours and had the potential to cause serious damage due to the nature of parking garages, the rapid initial response by a citizen at the scene helped prevent the fire from spreading further. [Related Article] According to reports, a citizen at the scene quickly noticed an explosion sound and  smoke coming from underneath the vehicle, and immediately responded by calling 119 and using a fire extinguisher for initial firefighting. Due to the structure of parking garages, where vehicles are closely parked together, there was a risk of the fire spreading to nearby vehicles. However, thanks to the rapid initial response, the situation was contained without major spread or damage. The scale of damage depends on the initial response to a fire This incident once again highlighted how...

[THESAFEKOREA] Protect EV charging areas from fire with SAFEDOME

  Protect EV charging areas from fire with SAFEDOME As the adoption of electric vehicles continues to grow rapidly, the density of EV charging areas in parking facilities is also increasing. Unlike conventional vehicle fires, EV fires can spread rapidly to surrounding vehicles and facilities within a short period of time due to thermal runaway characteristics. In these environments, the availability of effective fire response equipment can directly impact the scale of damage, making it essential to prepare response measures in advance.   Why practical fire response solutions are necesssary Fire response equipment is not meaningful simply by being present. It must be immediately usable in real-world situations, and designed so that anyone can respond quickly. If the system is complicated to install, requires significant manpower, or makes immediate response difficult, the critical golden time for initial response can easily be lost. Especially in EV fires, the key i...
