4.25 Litre AFFF Fire Extinguisher Rally Pack System (Mechanical or Electrical)

The 4.25 Litre AFFF Fire Extinguisher Rally Pack System, complete with a 2.4L AFFF hand held extinguisher, is an FIA homologated motorsport fire suppression solution designed for rally, race and competition vehicles where safety, compliance and long-term value are essential.

This package meets the minimum requirements of Motorsport UK for Stage Rally use and combines a fixed onboard system with a supplementary hand held extinguisher for added safety coverage.

FIA homologated to EX056-19 and compliant with Motorsport UK regulations, the system uses AFFF foam (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) for rapid suppression of fuel and electrical fires in motorsport environments.

This system is available in mechanical or electrical activation options, allowing flexible installation depending on vehicle specification and wiring setup.

Rally Pack Includes

• 4.25L AFFF FIA homologated fire extinguisher system
• 2.4L AFFF hand held fire extinguisher
• Motorsport UK compliant rally safety configuration

Mechanical vs Electrical Options

Mechanical Activation System

• Manual pull cable activation
• Proven motorsport-standard system
• Simple and lightweight installation

Electrical Activation System

• Electronic trigger activation
• Suitable for modern electrical systems and switch panels
• Cylinder weight: 6.04 kg

Both systems provide identical FIA-approved fire suppression performance and share the same 16-year service life cycle.

Long-Term Cost of Ownership (Key Benefit)

One of the key advantages of this system is its extended service life cycle, which significantly reduces long-term cost compared to traditional steel extinguishers.

• Typical entry-level system (~£225) with a 10-year life cycle = approx. £22.50 per year
• This system with a 16-year life cycle = approx. £16.20 per year

This delivers a lower annual cost of ownership, despite higher initial specification and build quality.

In addition, the system offers a lightweight advantage, reducing vehicle mass compared to many steel alternatives and improving overall performance and handling balance.
