The SCL25 is a fully automatic fire suppression system designed primarily for vehicles. It’s described as a “fire extinguisher in a tube” — i.e., rather than a conventional portable fire extinguisher, this system uses a long flexible tube that is mounted in the engine bay or other fire-risk area of a car.
How it works
- The flexible tube is made of a temperature-sensitive material; when the surrounding temperature reaches approximately 120 °C (±10 °C) the tube melts / ruptures and automatically releases its fire suppression agent.
- The tube contains a clean fire-suppression agent: typically mentioned is HFC-236fa (FE-36) which is non-toxic, non-corrosive, safe for sensitive electronics, and leaves no messy residue.
- Because it’s automatic and thermal-triggered, it works 24/7, even when the vehicle is parked/unattended.
Features & benefits
- Automatic activation: No need for manual intervention (especially useful if fire starts when you’re not present).
- Maintenance-free (or very low maintenance) compared to some conventional systems: The marketing states a lifespan of about 5 years. SAFETYCAR
- Residue-free / electronics safe: The agent leaves minimal cleanup and does not damage sensitive vehicle electronics. Good for engine bays, classic cars, track cars. SAFETYCAR+1
- Compact & flexible installation: The tube can be placed through tight engine bay spaces, making it more adaptable than bulky cylinders sometimes used. SAFETYCAR
- Fire class coverage: The product claims to be effective for Class A (combustibles), B (flammable liquids), C (flammable gases) and electrical fires.
If you’re looking for an automatic fire-suppression solution for vehicles, the SAFETYCAR SCL25 seems to offer a compelling combination of features: automatic activation, clean agent, flexible fitment, maintenance-friendly.
However, it’s not a miracle fix — it should be part of a broader fire-safety regime (regular inspection, proper wiring/fuel lines, a conventional extinguisher on hand, etc). And if you’re in Singapore, confirm compatibility with your insurance or vehicle modification regulations.
