Technology
Automatic protection, 24 hours a day
Vending machines are designed to operate for long periods of time, often in busy environments and sometimes without constant supervision.
Our Enhanced Fire Safety Technology provides an additional layer of protection by installing an automatic fire suppression system directly inside the machine.
Designed to react at the source of a potential fire, the system operates independently and requires no human intervention, helping to protect the machine, surrounding environment and people nearby.
How it works
- 01
01. Heat is detected
If excessive heat develops within the vending machine enclosure, the suppression system responds to the rising temperature.
- 02
02. Automatic activation
The fire suppression device activates automatically. No external electricity, manual operation or human intervention is required.
- 03
03. Fire-suppressing aerosol is released
A potassium-based aerosol is released into the enclosed cabinet and distributed around the affected area.
- 04
04. The fire reaction is interrupted
The potassium compounds act on the chemical chain reaction involved in combustion, helping prevent the fire from continuing to develop.
- 05
05. The fire is suppressed
By responding within the machine enclosure, the system helps suppress the fire at source before it has the opportunity to spread further.
Part of a wider approach to vending safety
Enhanced fire suppression does not sit in isolation. RSL combines the technology with our wider approach to electrical safety, servicing and preventative maintenance.
- Electrical Protection
Circuit and fuse protection helps reduce risk if an electrical fault occurs.
- PAT Testing
Routine testing provides documented electrical safety assurance.
- Preventative Maintenance
Regular servicing helps identify worn parts, wiring issues and potential faults early.
- Internal Inspections
Engineers check key components and connections during scheduled visits.
- Component Replacement
Worn or damaged parts can be replaced before they become a bigger issue.
