Firebug Group (FB Fire Technologies Ltd and Firebug Mechanical Equipment LLC)
FireBug is a firefighting equipment and vehicle manufacturer which specializes in disruptive water mist technology and rapid response vehicles. FireBug's equipment is designed to offer increased fire fighter safety with reduced water consumption. This technology enables smaller, more cost-effective vehicles for rapid fire and emergency response. The company was formed in the U.K. and operates in the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates.
ILUS owns 100% of the shares in Firebug Mechanical Equipment L.L.C. and 100% of the shares in FB Fire Technologies Ltd.
The FireBug range of products consists of the following:
MistNozzle Handheld Firefighting Nozzles
The MistNozzle handheld firefighting nozzles is a specialist firefighting nozzle/branch, which produces a fine water mist enabling it to extinguish multiple classes of fires without the use of chemical agents. The product is designed to increase efficiency, utilize less water, and increase fire fighter safety. The MistNozzle range is designed, developed, and manufactured in the U.K. It uses proven micron technology from the fire fixed suppression system industry. The MistNozzle uses science in order to provide superior fire cooling and extinguishing. Its low-pressure water mist technology makes it more efficient than comparative firefighting nozzles. The MistNozzle has one-click switch-function technology, allowing the user to easily transition between Jet Mode and Water Mist Mode, minimizing room for error and ensuring safe mode selection. The plug-and-play functionality of the MistNozzle works with most existing hose types on most existing fire trucks. The nozzle has been specifically designed for ease of use with minimal training required for safe and effective use. With water being a valuable resource the world over, the MistNozzle deliberately uses less water during operation. The water mist produced by the MistNozzle absorbs 2257kj of energy per liter verses conventional technology which absorbs 335kj per liter. The MistNozzle also combats the effects of smoke within the fire environment, providing effective and in some cases, lifesaving smoke scrubbing capability.
Mongoose External Firefighting Lance
FireBug's Mongoose is a handheld firefighting nozzle with an extension lance that allows it to be inserted from the exterior of a structure into an area, such as a room (compartment) in order to cool the area and suppress the fire. The Mongoose system consists of the water mist attack nozzle and a battery-operated hole cutting drill. Either the drill or the firefighters compartment entry tools are used to breach the structure and create the necessary hole through which the Mongoose is inserted. This method provides safer access to the compartment. The Mongoose has been designed to ensure the correct kinetic energy will overcome the pressures created by the fire. Water mist droplets are transformed into steam by the heat which consumes energy, removes oxygen, and consequently cools the gases and inhibits re-ignition. The Mongoose can deliver 40-50-micron water mist droplets covering a large surface area into a compartment which rapidly cools the area, scrubs the smoke, and suppresses the fire. The Mongoose is completely unique in that it can operate on an existing fire truck on existing hose lines, without requiring a separate pump and hose reel.
MistMax and Maverick Firefighting Pumps
FireBug's MistMax is a portable low-pressure water mist & fire suppression skid. The self-contained skid unit is designed to fit in a standard pick-up truck or on a UTV, such as the E-Raptor electric UTV. The MistMax is an easy-to-use, lightweight, and reliable solution which can be used by both non-technical operators and experienced firefighters. The MistMax uses Firebug's proprietary technology, including customized eductor mixer, a specialized pulsating diaphragm pump, front winding geared hose reel, easy to use control panel, custom engineered baffled water tank and the Mini MistNozzle which features Firebug's water stream colliding and atomizing technology.
FireBug's Maverick is a self-priming, high-water volume, light portable pump which is designed as multi-purpose firefighting skid unit that can be portable or permanently fixed in a firefighting vehicle. It has the capability to operate a hose reel or lay flat hose connected to a water supply tank or it can lift water from an open water source or obtain it from a pressure fed supply, such as a floating pump.
Floating Pumps
Firebug offers a range of floating pumps which are designed for pumping water from streams, lakes, hard-to-reach sources of water, or flooded areas. The range of floating pumps offer practical features and easy-to-use operation. Features include high impact resistance, compact size and light weight, powerful Honda or Briggs & Stratton engines, bronze impellers for marine use where required, specialized strainers and optional external fuel tanks.
Firefighting BacPac
Firebug's BacPac has been designed to provide rapid response firefighting capabilities using either water, foam or additive. The BacPac system contains a sophisticated internal mechanical rotor, which is used in the generation of WaterMist or foam (RAFS foam). The spindle and impellor rotate at high speeds mixing the foam that allows optimum extinguishing. The device increases the range of the discharge by at least 200% and is 6 times more efficient than any other known foam system, including CAFS.
E-Raptor Commercial Electric Utility Vehicle
Manufactured by FireBug, the E-Raptor range consists of commercial electric utility vehicles for several rugged applications. The E-Raptor 6x6 is the world's only 6-wheel electric utility vehicle.
