Hot Fire Training

  • Highest degree of temperature resistance from simulant smoke (200°C+)
  • Almost 50 years experience with hot fire training centre installations world wide!
  • Over 100 ViCount systems installed in the worlds largest hot fire training centre HMS Excellent /  Raleigh 
  • Work in conjunction with LPG fire places, used to top up smoke levels during carbonaceous burns
  • Creating thermally bouyant smoke to replicate real smoke spread
  • Helping to create a controllable training environment with extreme realism

Concept's ViCount smoke generators are installed throughout the world in quality hot fire training centres - providing the most realistic artificial smoke effect possible. They are also used to add smoke during carbonaceous burns.

The majority of fire training centres and schools use gas to replicate the appearance and heat of a real fire but one thing gas doesn't produce is smoke!

The ViCount range of oil-based smoke generators from Concept produces a smoke with a temperature resistance up to 200C, so realism can be added to Hot Fire simulators
effectively and safely.

Water-based smoke in contrast will layer at temperatures from 40—60C and so, if used in a hot fire compartment, the smoke is effectively pushed to the floor, so the trainees are standing in clear (though hot!) air.

The world’s largest maritime Hot Fire Training centre (HMS Excellent) has accumulated over 750,000 operating hours on ViCount systems since 2001. The reliability and serviceability of the systems is ranked by the facility operator as 95%.

Our users say: 

"We could not believe the difference in smoke effect we achieved within the simulator, simply by using the ViCount smoke!"

Testimonials

Bekonscot - Managing Director

For several years we went through numerous smoke generators to simulate a "burning building", an important feature in our presentation.  Although the effect produced was good, the reliability, servicing and running costs of the system were always a headache, with smoke machines sometimes lasting a few weeks before they failed.

In June 2000, on recommendation, we contacted Concept Smoke Systems regarding the smoke installation.  A ViCount system was installed and commissioned later that year and has been operating without failure ever since!! Smoke chemical consumption has fallen dramatically, serviceability has been 100% and the effect is as impressive as ever.  Minimising issues relating to maintenance, and maximising reliability has given all of our visitors (some 200,000 per year) the benefit of seeing the smoke effect.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend these systems to other users who need reliable and cost-effective smoke!
