Rosenbauer’s BATTERY EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY (BEST) offers an operation and setup that can be achieved in less than two minutes, allowing for the deployment of the piercing nozzle in eight milliseconds. BEST can halt a thermal runaway battery pack fire in as little as 10 minutes, flowing at a mere eight gal/min at 100 psi, far less than using the current EV manufacturer safety data sheets. The field-proven design keeps the operator 26 feet from the involved EV, limiting exposure to heat and highly toxic fumes released from a lithium-ion battery fire. www.rosenbaueramerica.com.

Coxreels V-100 SERIES now includes the new 1¼-inch vacuum hose reel (V-112H-735), with or without hose. The new model has a smaller frame size, featuring 12-inch diameter discs instead of the original 17-inch diameter discs, and is designed for use with 35 feet of 1¼-inch vacuum hose. The outlet connecting to the hose remains 1½ inches, and the 1¼-inch hose comes equipped with 1½-inch slip cuffs on both ends for maximum flow. The new swivel design still allows for the connection of multiple hose sizes, but a greater gradual taper has increased the amount of compatible inlet hose cuffs. www.coxreels.com. (800) 269-7335.
