TAF35 Firefighting Robot – for more safety when fighting fires
Mobile Solutions
The TAF35 firefighting robot is made up of a firefighting turbine mounted on a caterpillar vehicle. The firefighting robot can be operated by remote control, is very agile and can be used in many ways.
The turbine is fitted with an external nozzle ring, which atomizes water into a fine mist and then distributes it using a propeller. The water mist draws the heat from the fire very quickly and significantly reduces the temperature. The remote control increases the level of safety for the firefighters engaged in the work. On the one hand, the firefighters do not have to enter the area of immediate danger, and on the other, as in cases like tunnel fires, the firefighting vehicle can go in, in advance of the fire crew, who can then follow at a safe distance.
The firefighting robot can also work with foam.
The firefighting robot TAF35 significantly raises the level of safety for the fire crew
- Thanks to the remote control, they can remain at a distance of up to 300m
- Water mist cools very efficiently, and the fire is more quickly extinguished
- The turbine is also very efficient in areas where there are contaminating particles
- Water mist is a safe method of extinguishing a fire in many situations
- Improved extinguishing capability because the turbine can be height-adjusted, and tilted
- Suitable for nebulizing water, foam, retarder and gel additives
- There are only moderate noise levels, so there is no problem communicating with the fire crew while the device is in operation.
The firefighting robot is an excellent choice for the following areas of use:
Fields of Application
Thanks to its maneuverability, the ability to lift and tilt the turbine and its many options, the caterpillar-tracked vehicle is the ideal partner for demanding applications in many areas. For example chemical industry, tunnel systems, subway shafts, recycling plants, large halls, substations, urban areas, etc.

Choice of monitor and nozzle head
Good to know
A monitor or nozzle head can be mounted inside the turbine. These can be attached and replaced at any time using a quick connection.
