1.3 Intended use

The Sandvik FS1000-SC system is a pre-engineered fire suppression system that was purpose
designed for diesel powered mobile plant and equipment.
The Sandvik FS1000-SC system is self-contained and requires no electrical, pneumatic or gas
cartridge activation devices. The flexibility of the design allows it to be custom fitted to almost any
type of mobile or stationary equipment, plant or machinery. It caters for vehicle protection in
industries such as mining, construction, exploration, drilling and forestry, used in surface or
underground applications, for vehicles such as trucks, drill rigs, dozers, loaders, graders,
excavators and other diesel powered mobile equipment.
Large diesel powered equipment poses a unique challenge with regards to fire prevention and
suppression. The combination of large amounts of fuel, hydraulic oil, extremely hot surfaces and
electrical components creates an environment that has an inherently high fire risk.
Designed and manufactured in Australia, the Sandvik system greatly reduces risk to people,
property and the environment by providing effective fire protection and therefore safer operating
conditions. It has been purpose designed to suppress hydrocarbon fuel & oil fires by application of
an environmentally sustainable fluorine free foam extinguishing agent.

2.4 Modifications
WARNING
MODIFICATION HAZARD!
Unauthorised modifications could cause death, severe injury or

property damage.
Always contact a Sandvik representative in order to get advance

written approval for any modification.
All modifications and corrections not authorised in the product manuals or which may affect the
maintenance, operation, safety, and availability of the product need to be approved in writing by the
manufacturer before implementation. Approval requires careful risk assessment taking into
consideration any new risks that the modifications may bring.
Changes and modifications without proper risk assessment, elimination or reduction of risk and
without appropriate safety measures may lead to death, serious personal injuries or damage to
property or environment. Unauthorised modifications will also void the warranty.
If modifications and alterations that affect the maintenance, operation, safety, and usability of the
product are made without the written permission of the manufacturer, the manufacturer is not
responsible for any incidents resulting in death, injury, or property damage brought about by such
modifications and corrections.
If a modification or correction as described above has been implemented without the manufacturing
organization's permission, its effect on warranty liability will be considered case-by-case. Thus, the
warranty application may be rejected altogether.
Should you consider a modification or alteration necessary, you must contact the organization that
manufactured and designed the product. No modification is permitted unless you first obtain the
written approval of the manufacturer.
In order to plan and implement the modification you must deliver adequate documentation:
• Product model/type

2.5 In case of fire
In the event of a fire, the way you react is very important. As soon as you become aware of the fire,
do the following things:
• If you are in no immediate danger, turn off the engine. Do not leave the equipment or machinery
running any longer than necessary as this may add more fuel and oil, resulting in the fire
spreading faster. There is no need to wait for the automatic shutdown if it is safe to turn the
engine off immediately.
• Turn the valve handle on the fire suppression activation module anti-clockwise to activate the
system. In most cases, the system will detect the fire automatically and initiate the discharge.
Some fires however may develop smoke before heat. As soon as you see smoke, manually
activate the system – do not wait for the automatic detection to trigger the system discharge.
• Retreat from the area quickly and raise the alarm.
• Stand by with a portable fire extinguisher where possible to prevent re-ignition of fire or to
extinguish fire outside the protected area of the fire suppression system.
Explanation
Quickly retreat from the fire to protect yourself against wind blown flames, smoke, gases and other
dangers created by the fire. Fires are very unpredictable. They can turn suddenly, flare up or turn
into a fireball by sudden ignition of large quantity of fuel.
It is important to keep your distance until the fire has been knocked down by the fire suppression
system.
Residual heat from the fire could cause re-ignition after the system has discharged and therefore it
is important that someone stand by, at a safe distance, with a portable fire extinguisher. This stand-
by should be maintained until expert attention has arrived or there is no possibility of re-ignition.
After the fire is out
NOTICE RISK OF FIRE!

A small fire could be extinguished by the fire suppression system
without the operator’s knowledge.
Never assume the fire suppression system was accidentally
discharged.
Always investigate the reason for the discharge before restarting
the engine.
No fire is too small for a fire suppression system to be operated. All fires start small.
The engine must not be restarted until the equipment and fire suppression system have been
inspected, repaired, serviced and cleaned to ensure that the fault causing the fire has been rectified
and the fire suppression system is fully operational for continued protection.
Do not restart the equipment engine with an empty fire suppression system unless there is
absolutely no doubt that the fire system discharge was accidental. NOTICE! Immediately recharge
the fire suppression system.

FALLING
This assembly, suitable for connection to 12 or 24V DC, is used in conjunction with system alarm or engine shutdown panels and is fit-
ted to all Sandvik SC-Series fire suppression systems.
The basic function of this assembly is to monitor the fire system activation circuit pressure and provide a signal on low system pres-
sure or system discharge.
Both switches are normally open type, so current only passes through the switch if the system pressure is higher than the switch set-
ting.

3.5 Description of controls and functions
All FS1000-SC systems can be manually or automatically activated.
Manual Turn the yellow handle on one of the activation modules.
A minimum of two activation points are fitted to the system - one in the
operator cabin/compartment and one accessible from ground level.
Automatic An auto-detect tube initiates the system discharge.
The auto-detect tube melts at approximately 150°C (302°F) causing a

pressure drop which activates the system.
The FS1000-SC system can also be activated electrically:
Electric Activate the switch to release the pressure from the system.
(optional) The electric activation can be used remotely controlled or mobile

equipment.
For integration into the engine management system, the FS1000-SC system is fitted with pressure
switches in the activation circuit and a fire system status panel in the cabin. Low pressure in the
system will trigger an audio-visual warning to the operator. System activation results in an audio-
visual alarm and starts a delay timer sequence for automatic engine shutdown. This delay gives the
operator time to stop a moving vehicle before the engine shuts down. Once the status panel is in a
shutdown state, an override key (stored in secure location) is required to bypass the engine
shutdown and re-start the equipment.
The standard engine shutdown delay is six seconds from the time the system is activated. If the six
second delay is insufficient time to bring the equipment to a safe stop, the operator can manually
extend the delay by twenty seconds.
The purpose of automatic engine shutdown is to reduce the amount of additional fuel that could
potentially be added to the fire if the engine and pumps continued to operate. As with automatic
system activation, this eliminates the need to rely on correct actions by the equipment operator in
an emergency situation.
For applications where an automatic shutdown of the equipment engine would create additional or
unacceptable risks, the FS1000-SC system is fitted with an audio-visual alarm panel that will
indicate low pressure, system activation or system fault.
During discharge, the nozzles spray a full cone pattern of extinguishing agent. Various sizes of
tanks are available to provide adequate area coverage and cooling for post fire security. For larger
equipment or extended system discharge time, the Sandvik design caters for multiple tank
installation with a common activation circuit to facilitate simultaneous discharge of all the tanks.
All nozzles, fittings and valves are Brass and therefore highly corrosion resistant.

5.6 Disarming the system
WARNING
RISK OF DAMAGING THE FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM!
Incorrectly disarming the system could damage the equipment.
Only accredited personnel are able to disarm the system.
The tank bung is designed with a pressure release allowing safe relief of system pressure without
triggering the system discharge. The tank bung is fitted with an O-Ring and the system pressure is
released through an internal passage as soon as you break the seal on the O-Ring. This will vent all
system pressure, including tank and all activation hoses.
Being a loss of pressure type system, relieving pressure from any part of the activation circuit will
automatically activate the system discharge.
5.6.1 Disarming the pressure on a system (single tank)

1. Unscrew the tank bung to the point where the pressure begins to vent (two to three turns
maximum to break the seal on the O-Ring).
2. Wait for the pressure to vent and do not remove the bung completely until all pressure
indicators read zero.
5.6.2 Releasing the pressure on a system (multiple tanks)
The thread on the head nipple is NOT JIC! It is an SAE 45 degree sealing
thread and using a JIC fitting will cause damage to the nipple as there is
a difference in the pitch of the thread.
1. Disconnect all main feed hoses (-12) and cap the system control valve outlets.
2. Once all outlets are capped, unscrew the first tank bung to the point where the pressure
begins to vent (two to three turns).
3. Unscrew all other tank bungs in turn and wait for complete system to bleed down. Do not
remove any of the bungs completely until all pressure indicators read zero.
To recharge the system, remove all the caps and reconnect the main feed lines before pressurising
the system. If you do not remove the cap, it is possible to retain an airlock under the diaphragm
valve seat, which could prevent it from closing properly while the system is being charged.

ID: 69-343-136 5th Edition 2016
5.6.3 System cleaning for recharging
To ensure that there will be no foam contamination, proceed as follows:

• Flush all hoses with clean water. This applies to all the hoses, including the foam discharge ring
main, the activation hoses and auto-detect lines.
• Remove control valve and siphon tube from tank. Flush control valve and siphon tube with clean
water. If the control valve contains a check valve, check that the ball moves freely (rattles when
shaken).
• Flush the tank with clean water. Continue flushing until the foaming stops.
• Drain all remaining water, re-assemble and charge the system. Please note that rubber grease
used for protection of O-Rings should be used sparingly to avoid excess grease penetrating the
lines.
Sandvik recommend that you use this cleaning procedure at every system re-charge.
You can never be completely sure if the correct and approved foam concentrate was used in the
previous charge. Cleaning before each charge eliminates any potential contamination and ensures
free passage through all the lines.
Refer to the Servicing and Maintenance section of this manual for detailed servicing requirements
with regards to the Sandvik fire suppression system extinguishing agent.

5.7 Recharging the system
WARNING
GENERAL HAZARD!
Only use specified approved nitrogen charging rig assembly part
no. 69 334 080 or charging line 69 344 180.
Only use Sandvik tested and approved foam concentrate.
5.7.1 Refilling and charging the tank
WARNING!
Recharging of the system must be carried out by accredited personnel only.
1. Break seal on tank bung to release any remaining pressure in the system.
2. Remove the system control valve from tank and flush tank with clean water.
3. Flush out all the hoses with clean water and check that nozzles operate correctly.
4. Clean or replace nozzles if required.
5. Check auto fire detection tube and replace if required.
6. Turn handles on activation modules to closed position.
7. Reset the solenoid if the system was activated electrically.
8. Drain the tank. NOTICE! The tank must be empty before a recharge.
9. Fill tank with potable water and add foam charge as per following requirements:
Tank size Potable water Foam concentrate* Total liquid Foam charge
25 Litres 17.30 Litres 1.70 Litres 19.00 Litres 69-344-830-25
* Amount of concentrate is based on using Sandvik approved fire fighting foam.
• Check sealing surfaces and O-Ring seal on system control valve and tank bung.
• Screw system control valve and bung onto tank. Ensure both have O-Rings fitted.
• Tighten system control valve swivel nut to a minimum of 100 Nm and a maximum of 150 Nm.
• Remove caps from system control valve outlets and reconnect main feed lines (if required).
• Charge tank with Nitrogen through the charging connection to the system design
• Fit safety ties to all activation module handles.
• Fit dust caps to all nozzles (no greasing required for blue thermoplastic caps).

5.8 Service after system discharge
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD!
The fire could re-ignite if the equipment engine is started before the
fault that caused the fire has been rectified.
If the system was activated to suppress a fire, all fire damaged parts
must be replaced.
Do not restart the equipment engine until the fire system is fully
operational again.
If the system has been activated or accidentally discharged, the system is to be serviced by an
accredited technician as per the check list below:
INSPECTION CHECK
• Ask the owner or operator of the equipment if the reason for the fire system
discharge is known.
• If system activation was accidental, verify that this is the case. Small fires
are known to be extinguished by the fire system without anyone being
aware that there was a fire.
• If the reason is unknown, proceed with fault finding and trouble shooting to
determine the cause of the system discharge.
• If the discharge was as a result of damage to the fire system, please rectify
the problem. Make any necessary alterations to prevent it from happening
again.
• If the discharge was a result of a fault on the equipment, please advise the
equipment owner and have him rectify the fault to prevent a recurrence of
the same problem.
• Carry out a standard yearly service and recharge the system.
• Complete service report. List any problems found, repairs carried out and
parts replaced. Obtain the client representative signature on your report and
forward copies as per report distribution list.
• Record this service on the service tag by stamping the figure “5” in the
appropriate date field of the tag.
• Although this is an annual service, stamp a figure “5” to indicate that this is
outside the regular servicing schedule. A tag filled with 5’s would indicate
that this is a problem machine, equipment operator or fire system.

5.8.1 Pressurising the system
1 2
1. Turn off the low-pressure Nitrogen regulator.

2. Close the item 2 valve.
3. Open item 1 valve. Adjust regulator until indicator between valves shows required charging
pressure – see note below before continuing.
4. Connect charging line to charging connection on system control valve.
5. Slowly open item 2 valve to pressurize the tank. NOTICE! Opening the valve too quickly
could damage equipment and cause injury.
6. Close the item 1 valve to check the tank pressure.
7. Close the item 2 valve and disconnect the charging line from the charging connection on the
tank.
8. Check that the position of the indicator needle on the tank head has not changed.
Note: To increase the pressure of a charged system, ensure that your complete charging rig
assembly is pressurised before you connect to the charging connection. You need at least
system pressure in your charge line as a minimum to prevent accidental system activation
by gas escaping from the system to pressurise the hose!
Note: In order to verify that the system pressure is within acceptable limits, compare the pressure
displayed on all system pressure indicators. These are all expected to read the same
pressure within a 40kPa tolerance. There are at three (3) indicators on each fire system
and if all are within tolerance and within the green operating range, system is considered to
have the correct pressure. Any deviations outside the tolerance are to be investigated and
rectified.
5.8.2 Calibrating the indicators
The pressure indicators on the equipment must be calibrated every three (3) months.

5.9 Water fill kit user instructions
NOTICE RISK OF INCORRECT WATER VOLUME!
Spouts are designed exclusively for use with SC-Series fire suppression
systems.
DO NOT use spouts on other type or brand of systems.
Fill spouts are designed to eliminate the need to measure the required amount of water before
adding to tank. The air trapped in the top of the tank will give the exact amount of water (not
including foam concentrate) required when (re)charging the tank according to the recharging
instructions (see tank label).
5.9.1 Adding water to the tank

1. Select correct fill spout (A) according to the
nominal tank size. Spouts are Stainless
Steel tube and stamped (B) with the
nominal tank size near the bottom edge of
the tube.
2. Insert the spout (A), with O-ring (C) fitted,
into clean tank neck and secure hand tight
with the brass nut (D).
3. Ensure the tank bung is sealed airtight.
4. Insert the water hose through the spout
into the empty tank. Make sure the hose
goes all the way to the bottom of the tank
to minimise turbulence.
5. Turn on the water and let the tank fill
slowly. Having the hose turned on full may
create excessive turbulence that will result
in overfilling.
6. When the water overflows, turn water off
and remove hose.
7. The water level will drop once the hose is
removed, so slowly top up with water to the
top of the nut (E).
8. Remove the fill assembly and let the
remaining water in the spout drain into the
tank.
9. Add the foam concentrate according to the
recharging instructions on the tank
recharge label.

ID: 69-343-136 5th Edition 2016
6.1 Foam concentrate
6.1.1 Foam type
The Sandvik FS1000-SC fire suppression system is charged with an environmentally sustainable
fluorine free foam extinguishing agent. The agent is designed to effectively combat class B
hydrocarbon and polar solvent fuel fires (alcohol resistant).
The extinguishing agent forms a foam blanket that creates a vapour seal and enables fast
knockdown of hydrocarbon and polar solvent fires even with low application rates and only a thin
layer of foam present. Due to the blanket forming and re-sealing capabilities of the extinguishing
agent, this type of foam provides superior burn-back resistance and therefore excellent post-fire
protection.
6.1.2 Foam brand
Most available foam extinguishing agents have some form of internationally recognised credentials
(UL, FM, EN, ICAO, etc) and have therefore passed stringent product testing. This does not
automatically make a product suitable for use in a specific application such as vehicle systems and
adequate performance of the product is not guaranteed.
Sandvik approved Eclipse™ has been successfully tested in the Sandvik fire suppression system in
accordance with the requirements and test protocol of Australian Standard AS5062-2006, Fire
protection for mobile and transportable equipment.
WARNING
Only Sandvik approved foam concentrate shall be used!
6.1.3 Mixing
All mixing references throughout this manual are based on using the Sandvik tested and approved
foam concentrate. The mixing ratio of potable water and foam concentrate must be as stated in the
Service and Maintenance section of this manual.
6.1.4 Storage
Store the foam concentrate in a dry and cool area out of direct sunlight. The concentrate must be
stored in original containers as supplied by Sandvik. The concentrate must not be decanted into
alternative containers as improper decanting can lead to foam contamination and may affect the fire
suppression system performance.
6.1.5 Shelf life
The foam concentrate in original uncontaminated containers can be stored for long periods of time,
providing the storage temperature does not exceed 49° Celsius (120°F).
The recommended stock turnover period of the foam concentrate is ten (10) years.
Bottle caps are marked with the fill date (month and year) and boxes with the fill date to facilitate
turnover on a first in first out basis.

ID: 69-343-136 5th Edition 2016
6.1.6 Foam contamination
WARNING
Any contamination of foam concentrate or solution can affect
system performance!
• The use of clean water (potable) is important.

• Using a dirty funnel or measuring container. If the funnel or container was used previously with
other substances (oil, brake fluid, etc) and not cleaned properly, the resulting contamination
could destroy the fire fighting properties of the agent.
• Cross contamination from change of foam. If a system has been charged with non-approved
extinguishing agent, it is very important to clean the complete system before charging it with the
correct foam. Different suppliers’ products may not necessarily be chemically compatible.
• Using the fire system discharge line for alternate purposes lead to contamination of the foam and
must be avoided.
WARNING
Worst case scenario - Contaminated foam may not extinguish fire!
It is critical that all systems are cleaned thoroughly at the time of charging and only clean water and
clean charging utensils are used to avoid contamination.
6.1.7 System cleaning for recharging
To ensure that there will be no foam contamination, proceed as follows:

• Flush all hoses with clean water. This applies to all the hoses, including the foam discharge ring
main, the activation hoses and auto-detect lines.
• Remove control valve and siphon tube from tank. Flush control valve and siphon tube with clean
water. If the control valve contains a check valve, check that the ball moves freely (rattles when
shaken).
• Flush the tank with clean water. Continue flushing until the foaming stops.
• Drain all remaining water, re-assemble and charge the system. Please note that rubber grease
used for protection of O-Rings should be used sparingly to avoid excess grease penetrating the
lines.
Sandvik recommend that you use this cleaning procedure at every system re-charge.
You can never be completely sure if the correct and approved foam concentrate was used in the
previous charge. Cleaning before each charge eliminates any potential contamination and ensures
free passage through all the lines.
Refer to the Servicing and Maintenance section of this manual for detailed servicing requirements
with regards to the Sandvik fire suppression system extinguishing agent.

Exposure controls
Engineering controls are used to remove a hazard or place a barrier between the worker and the hazard. Well-designed engineering controls can be highly
effective in protecting workers and will typically be independent of worker interactions to provide this high level of protection.
Appropriate engineering The basic types of engineering controls are:
controls Process controls which involve changing the way a job activity or process is done to reduce the risk.
Enclosure and/or isolation of emission source which keeps a selected hazard "physically" away from the worker and ventilation that strategically "adds" and
"removes" air in the work environment.
Personal protection

Safety glasses with side shields.

Chemical goggles.
Eye and face protection
Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of
lenses or restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task.
Skin protection See Hand protection below
The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Where
the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance and has therefore to be checked prior
to the application.
The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and.has to be observed when making a final

SECTION 11 TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Information on toxicological effects

The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models).
Inhaled Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable control measures be used in an occupational setting.
Not normally a hazard due to non-volatile nature of product
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as "harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating
animal or human evidence.
Ingestion
Ingestion of diethylene glycol monobutyl ether may cause blueness in the extremities or tongue, rapid breathing and heart beat, low blood pressure, muscle pain
and discomfort, unconsciousness and impaired kidney function with large doses.
The liquid may be miscible with fats or oils and may degrease the skin, producing a skin reaction described as non-allergic contact dermatitis. The material is
unlikely to produce an irritant dermatitis as described in EC Directives .
Skin Contact Diethylene glycol monobutyl ether is suggested to be absorbed through intact skin but toxic effects only occur at very high doses.
Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material
Entry into the blood-stream, through, for example, cuts, abrasions or lesions, may produce systemic injury with harmful effects. Examine the skin prior to the use
of the material and ensure that any external damage is suitably protected.
Eye This material can cause eye irritation and damage in some persons.
Chronic Substance accumulation, in the human body, may occur and may cause some concern following repeated or long-term occupational exposure.

6.3 System design risk assessment
Sandvik engaged the services of Safe Production Solutions Pty Ltd to facilitate a design risk
assessment of Sandvik’s pre-engineered fire suppression systems for mobile equipment.
The objective of the risk review was to risk assess the hazards associated with the design,
construction, functionality and maintainability of the Sandvik system to provide confidence that the
supplied product is a safe practical system meeting legislative requirements.
Risks were identified using the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis method (FMEA). Current controls
were identified and additional controls recommended and implemented as a direct result of the
design risk assessment.
The following is a schedule of controls to highlight to the end user any controls identified during the
design risk review that require re-emphasising and end user management.
This schedule should be read in conjunction with this parts and service manual.
The schedule may provide valu.able input for inclusion in the end user operational risk assessment
of the protected equipment.
Source of the risks listed in this schedule is the design risk assessment report document number
D3347 (FMEA) prepared by SP Solutions Pty Ltd. A full copy of this report can be made available
on request.

Note: Inspection, test and servicing must be in accordance with the above schedule to comply
with Sandvik warranty conditions.
For systems that operate in aggressive environments such as corrosive atmospheres, salt spray,
extreme temperatures, abnormally high humidity or intense vibrations, we strongly recommended
more frequent servicing intervals. Double the servicing frequency and carry out the 6-monthly
service every 3 months and the annual service every 6 months.
Please refer to next page for further details regarding general servicing requirements.

7.2 3 yearly service
In addition to the normal yearly requirements as listed in the schedule on the previous page, please
carry out the following:
• Replace the auto-detection tube. This tube hardens with age and becomes vulnerable to
cracking which causes accidental system activation.
• The tube must be replaced as soon as it shows signs of wear or hardening.
• 3 years is the maximum interval between changes of tube.
For systems operating in aggressive environments (such as corrosive atmospheres, salt spray,
exposure to extremes of temperature, abnormally high humidity or intense vibrations) the automatic
detection tube may need to be replaced at annual intervals.

ID: 69-343-136 5th Edition 2016
7.3 5 yearly service
In addition to all of the previously listed requirements (including the annual and the 3 yearly
servicing) please carry out the following:
• Hydrostatic test of the tank to the test pressure specified on the tank data plate, 5 years from
date of manufacture of the tank (not from date of commissioning). NOTICE! In order to comply
with Australian Standard AS2030.1 and as a requirement of the fire suppression tank
manufacturer, the interior/exterior of the tank must be examined and the tank must be
hydrostatically tested. Hydrostatic test must be done by a certified gas cylinder test
station in accordance with Australian Standard AS2337.1. Tanks failing hydrostatic test
must be replaced.
• Renew all O-Ring seals throughout the system (control valve, bung, hose ends).
• Disassemble control valve to inspect the diaphragm and clean the check valve (if fitted). Replace
the diaphragm only if it shows signs of deterioration. Re-assemble the control valve and carry out
leak and function test. NOTICE! It is recommended that inspection and testing of control
valves is carried out by one of the authorised Sandvik service centres that has the
necessary facilities and spare parts at hand.
For systems operating in aggressive environments (such as corrosive atmospheres, salt spray,
extreme temperatures, abnormally high humidity or intense vibrations) It is strongly recommended
to do all of the 5 yearly servicing at 3 year intervals.
