Fire Fighting
Product: COBRA

COBRA, developed in conjunction with our partners CCS AB, is an efficient tool for piercing and cutting in all types of material, and extinguishing fires with a tightly directed jet, using the minimum of water.

CCS-COBRA is a hydraulic operated system, remotely controlled from a ladder platform, 'skylift' or any other suitable base of operation comprising a water pump, slurry pressure cylinder, control panel, and hydraulically operated lance for cutting and extinguishing.

During firefighting, CCS-COBRA may cut any size of hole in a roof, wall, door of a house in order to ventilate and remove heat and smoke. At the same time, as cutting takes place, the water-mist transforms into steam. This process consumes a lot of energy taken from the heat of the fire. The environment around the fire is cooled down as well as water dampening the fire, and reducing oxygen supply.

Product: COBRA

  • Platform-operated
  • Built into a variety of fire trucks or
  • Containerised for placement in existing vehicles
