Vehicle & site risk assessment

For customers seeking to protect mobile plant and heavy vehicles, Delta Fire will from part of the risk assessment process specific to the relevant site and equipment to determine which solutions are required, including the most appropriate fire suppression system. All parties, from Delta Fire and site operators to maintenance teams and insurers, have input into the final vehicle fire suppression system. This risk assessment will include a thorough analysis to understand how the vehicle is being used and any fire risks to which it is exposed.

System design

After the assessment, Delta Fire will design a fire suppression system compliant to the manufacturers and requirments and Australian standard AS 5062. Drawing on more than two decades of experience in the design of mobile plant fire suppression, we provide tailored solutions that mitigate risks to people and high-value assets while minimising potential downtime as a result of major fire incidents. Key solutions for heavy vehicle fire suppression:
● Pneumatic inear or spot detection based systems
● Dry powder systems that work by interrupting the chemical reaction of foam systems which discharge a continuous stream of foam solution to quickly suppress flames and cool down hot surfaces.

Installation and ongoing support

During the commissioning and installation phase, we liaise with internationally renowned mobile plant and heavy vehicle fire suppression specialists ensuring seamless integration of cutting edge fire protection systems tailored to your specific operational requirements. Our collaborative approach with these industry leaders guarantees that every system meets the highest safety standards and regulatory compliance.

We also assist customers with ongoing support and the supply of new equipment that may be required as part of our after-sales service.

Yes, the system automatically shuts down cooking equipment, including gas and electrical sources, upon activation to prevent further hazards and ensure complete safety during a fire emergency.

Ongoing maintenance includes regular inspections of cylinders, nozzles, detectors, and other components. The system must be serviced in compliance with AS 1851 to ensure it remains operational and compliant with Australian safety regulations. For peace of mind, we provide ongoing maintenance and after-sale support. Contact us if you need assistance.

Our Kitchen fire suppression system activates when it detects heat from fires and automatically discharges a wet chemical agent to suppress flames, neutralise grease, cool appliance surfaces, and cut off the oxygen supply, ensuring swift containment and minimal kitchen disruption.
The cost of installing a fire suppression system depends on the kitchen size, layout, and specific requirements. For an accurate quote, it's best to contact us for a personalised assessment and detailed pricing.
Fire suppression systems use chemicals to neutralise fires, specifically targeting grease and cooking equipment. In contrast, fire sprinklers release water to control fires but may not be as effective for kitchen-specific hazards like grease fires. If you want to learn more about our fire protection systems, reach out to our team, which will be happy to assist you.

Preventing fires in a commercial kitchen requires regular maintenance, proper staff training, and compliance with fire safety regulations. Key measures include installing a fire suppression system, keeping cooking areas clean, regularly inspecting equipment, and ensuring proper ventilation to reduce grease buildup.
Common fire hazards in a commercial kitchen include grease buildup in hoods and ducts, overheating appliances, unattended cooking, electrical faults, and improper storage of flammable materials. Without proper fire protection measures, these risks can lead to dangerous and costly kitchen fires.
