The new Xtreme Shelter designed by Vallfirest combines a range of basic characteristics which make it different from the traditional Fire Shelter II. The new mix of materials provides an important improvement in isolation performance (see the graph), while the new ergonomic design based on fetal position allows to reduce significantly the weight and the volume, this way making it easier to transport and to unfold.
Abrasion resistance:
The hose has a high resistance to abrasion. The special thickness of the hose lengthens the life of the hose in extreme abrasive conditions.
Cold resistance:
The hose withstands a low temperature down to -38 Cº without any damage to its components.
Ozone Resistance:
The hose shows no signs of cracks on the rubber tested at 100 pphm / 40oC / 72h.
Chemical resistance:
The hose is resistant to sea water as well as to contamination by most chemicals, hydrocarbons, oils, alkalines, etc.
Heat resistance:
The hose when subjected to a static pressure of 700 kpa will be able to withstand a temperature of 600oC for a minimum of 60 seconds without breaking or damaging the synthetic reinforcement.
Repair:
Damage to the tire, such as small holes or punctures, can be repaired with the use of the REPOKIT and the vulcanizing plate.

This model`s water drops are lightweight and their diameter is smaller in order to reach greater heat absorption.
When the water passes through the coupling and the stainless steel cylinder, it hits against the frontal cycloid-shaped shield, so that the small slot between the cylinder and the shield allows the stream to pour out, creating a protective shade of water.
The volume of water poured out and the formation of the shade of water depend directly on the water pressure. In this case, as we are working with a high-pressure and low-consumption nozzle, the optimal working pressure is between 20 and 22 bar with the consumption of 120 l/m.
Features:
- Cycloid-shaped shield: diameter of 25, maximum working pressure up to 35 bar.
- Coupling Barcelona according to UNE 23400.
- Y-shaped particle filter with stainless steel mesh.
- Semicircular yellow reflecting high visibility sticker.
Instructions for use:
- The nozzle should be connected to a hose and placed on flat ground
- It should work under the range of pressure as indicated above.
- The water is thrown out making up a half-moon-shaped shade of water.
Vallfirest company has developed a pack of fire blankets adaptable to all sorts of light vehicles and trucks used for fire extinction works. This kit aims to reach the thermal insulation inside the vehicle cabin while it remains trapped in a forest fire.
This system is much more effective if it is used together with external sprinkler kits in order to avoid glass breakage, as well as with the respiration units inside the vehicle.
The past accidents and the tests realized all over the world have shown us the way to follow in order to improve the self-protection equipment. It is known that the temperature inside the vehicle cabin is lower that outside, so that if insulating blankets are used, the thermal conditions are improved and it is possible for human beings to remain more time in safe conditions despite of the extreme conditions outside.
The insulating and fire blankets pack can be applied in any kind of vehicle used for fire extinction. It is easily mountable and replaceable from one vehicle to another if the substitution is needed. This kit is single-use in case of direct flame impact. It is designed and adapted according to different sizes of different vehicles.
