Flame Proofing

Protect your equipment and machine operators with flame proofing.

Protect your forklift operators with the enhanced safety offered by flame proofing and explosion proof enclosures.

Carried out by the Miretti Group, flame proof upgrades help to prevent internal fires which can potentially begin in machines. They can prevent your machine from becoming too damaged and significantly reduce the danger to your machine operators. These flameproof and explosion proof conversions from Hitec Lift Trucks can be applied to both diesel and electric forklift trucks, as well as other vehicles produced by various manufacturers.

Temperature Monitors

Stay one step ahead by monitoring equipment temperature in heat sensitive environments.

The heat generated by your equipment can be hazardous around gasses and flammable materials, so it is therefore necessary for you to take actions to prevent sparks from occuring. Putting safety first, Miretti Group’s ATEX EX equipment features protection controls to motor surface temperature, fluid temperatures and brake temperatures.

Explosion Proof Enclosures

Put safety first by modifying your forklift with an explosion proof enclosure.

An explosion proof enclosure is a case or housing that has been tested and approved to contain electrical components such as cabling, wiring, valves, the iginition system and batteries. Although the joints will permit the entry of explosive vapours, the strength of the enclosures contain any internal explosion.

The enclosures of Miretti Group’s ATEX EX equipment have been hydrostatically tested for internal explosive resistance to pressures in excess of requirements without failure.
