Mobile Fireﬁghting Supporting Machine LUF The Mobile Firefighting Supporting Machine (LUF) is a radio controlled tracked vehicle that can be send as advance guard equipment up to 300 metres in front of firefighting forces. A water-spraying system that can spray up to 400 l per minute under high pressure is mounted on the vehicle. The myriads of smallest water drops lower the temperature very fast to a temperature that is tolerable for fire fighters. Soot, dust and dirt particles will be bound immediately and the sight will be improved considerably. At a fire test in an Austrian tunnel, the temperature beneath the tunnel’s ceiling had been lowered from more than 1,000°C to 150°C within approx. 5 minutes by using the LUF60! Even if there is a threat that the building may collapse, the LUF60 can be brought to the seat of fire without endangering rescue squads. The sight that is improved by the LUF60 and the lowered temperature enables an extinguishing of the fire by the fire fighters and therefore a fast moving of Product information - LUF- 60 - 20060815 - EN rescue squads.
