Specifications
FireCAN is an electronic communication system allowing pumps and other
equipment to be used via a central control panel on a firefighting truck.
The new MasterBus FireCAN Interface allows Mastervolt products to be linked
into a FireCAN system.
MasterBus
FireCAN Interface
A converter that feeds MasterBus data
directly into the FireCAN control system
The MasterBus FireCAN Interface is an effective solution for
seamless data transfer between MasterBus enabled chargers
and the central communication system of a fire-fighting vehicle.
As such, this new interface is a real ‘door-opener’ to the fire-
fighting industry, allowing it to use the wide range of batteries,
chargers and Combi’s in our portfolio.
Each MasterBus FireCan Interface passes data about a single
charging device to the main fire control panel, including input
power availability, charging status, battery voltage and over/
under voltage. This data is vital in an emergency situation, and
helps prevent a key power source dropping out at a crucial
moment, such as when driving the fire pumps.
