A fire extinguishing system for a vehicle includes a fire detection device outputting a fire detection signal in response to detecting a fire and is installed in a predetermined space of the vehicle. A controller outputs a control signal for spraying fire extinguishing agent when the fire detection signal is received from the fire detection device. An air tank stores compressed air and a fire extinguishing agent cylinder is connected to the air tank through an air hose, is filled with the fire extinguishing agent, and is operated to discharge the fire extinguishing agent by the compressed air, supplied from the air tank through the air hose, by the control signal. A spray nozzle assembly is connected to the fire extinguishing agent cylinder through a fire extinguishing agent hose and sprays the fire extinguishing agent being supplied, from the fire extinguishing agent cylinder, through the fire extinguishing agent hose.

An enclosure, vehicle, and method for containing an overheating device are provided. An enclosure includes a body and a door that form a volume. The body includes is connected to a Venturi tube that is in communication with a fluid flow path flowing across an opening at an opposite end. In the event an overheating device is placed in the enclosure, a pressure sensor measures a pressure in the volume and a controller opens a first valve in a flow path through the Venturi tube so that air is pumped from the volume via the Venturi effect. The first valve is closed when the measured pressure drops below a threshold pressure. The enclosure can also include an extinguishing agent that can be expelled into the volume if a temperature sensor measures a temperature above a threshold temperature.

There is provided a fire extinguisher comprising a fire extinguishing agent; a first mechanism configured to operate said fire extinguisher via a manual operation; a second mechanism configured to operate said fire extinguisher automatically; and wherein said fire extinguisher comprises at least one detector to detect the existence of a fire and cause the operation of said second mechanism.

A one-touch Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) is provided that allows for a simplified user interface and simplified user operation. The user interface allows the CAFS to activate upon a single press of a single button. An electronic controller checks that several CAFS device parameters show that the CAFS is capable of operating. The controller gathers the device parameter data from a diagnostic system present in the CAFS that gives data pertaining to whether water is flowing, whether foam concentrate is present in the system, whether foam is flowing, and whether the temperature of an air compressor is within a safe range for operation. If the above device parameters are found to be in condition for safe operation of the CAFS, the controller will start and maintain operation until either one of the above falls out of tolerance or the user initiates a shut down of the CAFS.

A fire extinguisher is shown and described. The fire extinguisher may include a housing, a vessel positioned within the housing, the vessel retaining a fire suppression agent therein, and a discharge port positioned in the housing and operatively coupled with the vessel, where the fire suppression agent is capable of being expelled from the discharge port. The fire extinguisher may include an electrical connector positioned on the housing, the electrical connector capable of operatively securing to an electrical outlet, where the electrical connector is rotatable relative to the housing.
