PROBLEM → SOLUTION
When a fire starts in an engine bay, cabin, or EV battery compartment, seconds matter. The Sentinel delivers fast detection and targeted suppression aid—minimising damage and helping keep people and assets safe.
- Smart Detection: IR flame + rate-of-rise temperature.
- Targeted Suppression Aid: 120° full-cone nozzles, tuned by zone.
- Always Connected: GSM/4G alerts, app dashboard, OTA updates.
KEY FEATURES
- Multi-zone protection: Up to four modules; engine, cabin, battery zones.
- Compact hardware: Modules Ø150 × 98 mm (with brackets).
- Refillable SS316 cylinder: 880 × 169 mm, ~7.3 L internal volume.
- Operating pressure: 12–15 bar; hydrotest 22.5 bar (1.5× MAWP).
- Coverage: ~1.5–2.0 m radius per nozzle in open areas; ~0.8–1.0 m in confined spaces.
- Manual activation options: Dashboard button (road), dual FIA-style (race).
- IP67 electronics: Conformal-coated PCB, automotive connectors.
- Service-friendly: Refillable with approved water-based fluid; automated reminders.
HOW IT WORKS
Detect. Decide. Discharge. Notify.
- Detect — Each module uses IR flame + rate-of-rise temperature sensing.
- Decide — Choose Normal Mode (only triggered module discharges) or Race Mode
(all modules discharge). - Discharge — Precision nozzles deliver a 120° spray cone via braided stainless hoses.
- Notify — App, SMS, and email alerts for fire events, discharges, and low battery.

APPLICATIONS
Race & Track • Passenger & EV • Public Transport • Trucks & Logistics • Heavy Machinery & Mining • Defence • Marine
TECHNOLOGY
Detection & Geometry:
Sensor FOV aligns with 120° spray cones for synchronized detection and suppression aid at recommended standoff distances.
Control & Logic:
- Normal Mode: Only the triggered module discharges—extends available fluid.
- Race Mode: All modules discharge at once—maximum immediate response.
Software & Fleet:
- GSM/4G connectivity, app/SMS/email alerts
- OTA firmware updates & configuration
- API for fleet integration; multiple systems per account
