SAFETYCAR® EV AUTOMATIC FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM [PROFESSIONAL]
The SAFETYCAR EV Automatic Fire Suppression System [PROFESSIONAL] is a fully automatic “fire extinguisher in a tube” engineered to provide 24/7 fire protection for the front electrical compartments of electric vehicles—even while they are parked and unattended.
Installed within the frunk or front service compartment, the SAFETYCAR tube protects 12V batteries, electrical wiring, fuse and relay boxes, power distribution components and electronic control modules. When exposed to heat from a fire, the heat-sensitive SAFETYCAR tube opens at the hottest point and releases SCL25™ Clean Agent directly at the source of the flames.
Front compartments can contain 12V batteries, wiring, fuse and relay boxes, power distribution components and sensitive vehicle electronics. An early-stage electrical fire in this area can escalate rapidly and spread to adjacent vehicle systems if left uncontrolled.
Engineered for flexible fitment across electric vehicles of different makes and models, the system requires no sensors, wiring, batteries or connection to the vehicle’s electrical system.

SAFETYCAR EV Automatic Fire Suppression System colours
SAFETYCAR systems are available in a selection of discreet factory-style finishes and distinctive braided performance sleeves. Available colours depend on the system and configuration selected.

Carbon BLUE
Carbon Blue features a protective braided sleeve that provides additional abrasion resistance and a distinctive performance appearance.
Moulded sleeves over the stainless-steel end fittings provide added damping and protection.
Carbon Yellow
Carbon Yellow features a protective braided sleeve that provides additional abrasion resistance and a distinctive high-visibility performance appearance.
Moulded sleeves over the stainless-steel end fittings provide added damping and protection.

Diamond Black
Diamond Black is our most popular finish, providing a discreet, OEM-style appearance that blends naturally into most electric vehicle front compartments.
What is the safetycar EV fire extinguisher?
Highly effective
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] is a self-activating fire suppression system engineered to provide reliable and cost-effective protection for electric vehicle front compartments.
Unlike a portable fire extinguisher that must be retrieved and operated manually, the SAFETYCAR system is permanently installed close to the electrical components being protected. It automatically releases the extinguishing agent when exposed to fire-level temperatures.
This allows the system to respond even when the electric vehicle is parked, charging or unattended.
FULLY AUTOMATIC
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] provides continuous fire protection without requiring an external power supply, electronic sensors or connection to the vehicle’s computer systems.
The system requires no manual activation. It remains continuously active throughout its five-year rated service life, whether the vehicle is being driven or parked.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
When a fire occurs, the temperature-sensitive material of the SAFETYCAR tube opens at the point where the heat is most intense.
This releases SCL25™ Clean Agent at high pressure directly at the source of the fire, rapidly suppressing the flames without leaving powder, foam or corrosive residue behind.
The localised discharge directs the fire-extinguishing agent where it is needed most.
FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] is engineered specifically for installation within electric vehicle frunks and front service compartments.
Depending on the vehicle, this area may contain:
- The 12V or low-voltage auxiliary battery
- Fuse and relay boxes
- Power distribution components
- Electrical wiring and connectors
- Charging-system components
- Vehicle computers and electronic control modules
- Other sensitive electrical equipment
The flexible 2.5m tube can be routed around the relevant components within the protected area, allowing it to accommodate different electric vehicle layouts.
The system is designed for electric vehicles of different makes and models, subject to suitable installation space and mounting points within the front compartment.
How the SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher works
HEAT-SENSITIVE TUBE
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] uses a heat-sensitive tube manufactured from a high-performance polymer.
The tube contains SCL25™ Clean Agent under pressure. When exposed to fire and temperatures of approximately 120°C (248°F), the tube opens at the hottest point and releases the stored fire-suppression compound directly at the source of the flames.
Unlike systems that depend on separate detectors, electrical wiring or control units, the tube itself performs both the detection and discharge functions.
Clean FIRE EXTINGUISHING AGENT with cooling effect
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] uses SCL25™ Clean Agent, a clean and odourless liquid that discharges as a gas.
SCL25™ rapidly suppresses fire by interrupting the chemical reaction of combustion. Its discharge also produces a cooling effect within the protected compartment, helping to reduce surrounding temperatures, limit heat transfer and protect adjacent electrical components from escalating fire damage.
The agent is effective against Class A, Class B, Class C and electrical fires, while leaving no powder, foam or damaging residue on sensitive electronics.
ENGINEERED FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES
The flexible but durable tube of the SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] is designed to be installed around the components requiring protection within the electric vehicle’s frunk or front service compartment.
Depending on the vehicle layout, the tube may be secured:
- Around the 12V battery compartment
- Above fuse and relay boxes
- Around electrical wiring and power distribution components
- Near electronic control modules
- On the underside of the bonnet or frunk cover
- Along suitable mounting points within the protected compartment
The tube should be positioned to provide effective coverage without obstructing service access, ventilation, drainage, hinges, latches or other moving components.
Professional installation is recommended, particularly where high-voltage components or cables are present. Installation does not require modification of, or connection to, the vehicle’s electrical system.
SCOPE OF FIRE PROTECTION
The SAFETYCAR EV Car Fire Extinguisher [PROFESSIONAL] is designed to suppress early-stage fires within the front electrical compartment and around the components enclosed by the installed tube.
It protects 12V batteries, low-voltage electrical systems, wiring, fuse boxes, electronic control modules and associated components located within the protected area.
When discharged, SCL25™ Clean Agent provides both fire-suppression and cooling action. This can help reduce surrounding temperatures, limit heat transfer and slow fire escalation within the protected front compartment.
The system is not installed inside or directly onto the vehicle’s sealed high-voltage traction battery pack. It is therefore not represented as a direct fire-suppression system for thermal runaway occurring within the main traction battery.
SAFETYCAR provides an additional layer of automatic fire protection but cannot guarantee that every fire will be prevented, completely extinguished or prevented from spreading.
