Experts in fire protection
Next generation fire fighting
The Minimax MXOne high-performance firefighting turbine represents a new generation of stationary fire protection systems. This unique system has a 360° operating range and enables the highly precise, targeted use of water mist from a safe and great distance. With full jet, it reaches a discharge range of up to 262ft.
Performance
Efficient fire protection – from water mist to full jet mode. An ideal solution for many areas of application.
Spray mode during operation can be adapted to the fire scenario and fire load
A gentle extinguishing water feed prevents burning material from spreading
Water mist mode reduces the quantity of water required as a result of the cooling and extinguishing effect
Low scattering loss and high range even with a flat setting angle
Mobility
Quick to rise and tilt with permanent control of positioning with 360° rotation for maximum flexibility.
Rotation range means all-round coverage
Fast rotation and precise angle adjustment
Infinitely variable navigation: tilting angle from -19° to +43°
Position sensors indicate the exact alignment of the turbine on the control panel
Control
The control and alignment of the MXOne can be performed automatically or manually. Upon start-up, the MXOne can be placed in an oscillation pattern to protect pre-defined areas. The MXOne also has on-board and remote control capability allowing for full function manual control of the unit from a distance up to 300' away. The feature allows the operator to control the MXOne from a location that provides the best vantage point or safest distance possible.

Installation Alternatives
The MXOne can be configured in multiple ways. While the MXOne can be purchased as an independent unit for integration into your facility, we also provide some pre-configured applications. Our skid and mobile units can include an onboard power source (36KW diesel generator) with the necessary piping manifold to accommodate standard fire department connections. Both of these options can also be provided with water driven foam proportioning pumps to facilitate the use of foam with the MXOne. See below for more details.
Mobile installation with onboard diesel generator
The MXOne is mounted on triple axel trailer and includes a 36KW diesel generator, water inlet header with (2) 5" Storz connections and (2) 2-1/2" hose connections, and (150') of 5" hose on (3) spools. Trailer can be configured for either water or foam/water use. com. Trailer cann be configured with a retractable tarp to protect the MXOne from harsh conditions or travel.
Skid Mounted unit with onboard diesel generator
The MXOne is mounted on a skid that includes a 36KW diesel generator, water inlet header with (2) 5" Storz connections and (2) 2-1/2" hose connections. Skid can be configured with a retractable tarp to protect the MXOne from harsh conditions.
Areas of Use
Typical requirements for systems to be used in harsh, industrial environments: Resilience, reliability and efficiency. MXOne fully meets these requirements and, despite its robust design, is easy to operate and requires little maintenance. The extinguishing system can be used in areas with an ambient temperature of -15° to 55° C.

MXOne - Tank Protection
The MXOne provides exceptional performance against tank and flammable liquid hazards when combined with foam. The MXOne can be configured with a water-driven foam pump allowing for fast deployment with reliable and accurate proportioning onboard.
Railcar and Fuel Terminals
The MXOne provides the ability to protect complex hazards with both water or foam from greater distances. The MXOne is designed to maximized the amount of water or foam being delivered to the hazard and, when combined with the remote control capabilities, allows responders to be further from the hazard than conventional technology.
Certifications
The effectiveness of MXOne has been extensively tested for liquid fires, kerosene, plastic waste and wood and confirmed by accredited and independent fire protection certification bodies such as DMT, MPA Dresden and FlameCert. Additional listings are pending and will be available in 2024.
