Caterpillar Forklift Spark Arrestor Muffler
Reducing Fire Risk in the Warehouse
Our client's forklift fleet has been equipped with Flowtech Spark Arrestor including guards.
The Caterpillar forklifts, ranging from 4.0 to 5.5 tonnes, are specifically designed for heavy-duty lifting applications. They offer great utility in warehouse environments. To enhance safety further, additional safety measures such as spark arrestor mufflers can be installed.
One of our clients needed a solution to provide additional safety measures in their warehouse and meet compliant standards with AS1019-2000. The Flowtech team recommended installing spark arrestor mufflers with guards (mounted vertically)on all their Caterpillar forklifts to address their concerns. The guards serve as a protective barrier, preventing any potential risks that may arise from personnel coming into contact with the hot surface.
Driving Compliance and Cost Savings
A Look into Forklift Safety Measures
Apart from providing additional safety in a warehouse environment, the spark arrestor mufflers also offer benefits such as reduced noise levels and lower emissions.
The use of Caterpillar forklifts equipped with spark arrestor mufflers can also result in cost savings for businesses. As the muffler traps sparks, it prevents any potential damage to goods or equipment that could occur due to an uncontrolled fire.
This reduces the risk of expensive repairs or replacements and ensures smooth operations in a warehouse setting.
These additional safety features can also lead to increased efficiency and productivity. The reduced noise levels of the mufflers can result in a quieter working environment, allowing workers to focus better on their tasks without distractions. In addition, lower emissions contribute to a healthier workplace for employees, resulting in fewer sick days and increased productivity.
Why is the Flowtech Spark Arrestor the preferred choice for additional safety features in CAT Forklifts?
- Made to suit turbo and non-turbo engine
- Heavy duty & fully welded construction
- Made from Aluminised material
- Corrosion Resistant
- Customisable to reduce noise and emission
- Compliance to AS1019-2000
- Compliance with US Forestry Standard 5100-ID
IMPORTANT: Incorrect installation and lack of support for the spark arrestor can lead to premature mechanical failure.
