MAUS Fire Suppressor

Category: Products

The MAUS Fire Suppressor, the smallest and most versatile fire suppressor, is revolutionizing firefighting with its patented space technology. Developed in Sweden, this hand-held suppressor offers a 5-year maintenance-free guarantee, saving both time and money. Its innovative, non-toxic potassium-based formula effectively suppresses fires with as little mess as possible, preventing additional damage often caused by traditional extinguishers.

Importantly, this formula is safe for use on expensive engines and electronics and is capable of suppressing lithium-ion battery fires in enclosed spaces. Additionally, the MAUS Fire Suppressor does not deplete oxygen from the air, ensuring that you can still breathe even if you need to use it in a confined space, such as a car. Its portable and lightweight design allows it to fit into glove boxes or small spaces such as boat compartments, UTVs, or jet skis.

Environmentally friendly, it does not deplete the ozone layer like other toxic gases. Simple to use, just pull the pin and press the start button. Furthermore, it can be employed as a hands-free fire suppression grenade; once activated, it offers a minimum continuous 9-second discharge to fill the space with its potassium aerosol, which, being lighter than air, stays suspended in the space, preventing re-ignition effectively. Everyone should have this essential tool to suppress early-stage fires quickly and effectively.

Åke Hassellöf

Everyday hero, Christian Berner AB

"There was a minor engine fire in a passenger car on the motorway. The driver ran in a semi-panic and picked up snow in the ditch. He looked a little skeptical when I brought the little red mojo boy, but he was both happy and impressed by what it could do. It worked very well. We will be sending out some internal information at the company about the event, so there will be good publicity spreading for the little fire extinguisher.”

Michael Gumowski

Drivers Club (Driversclub.se)

"During our racing days around Sweden, the marshals are always equipped with MAUS. On three occasions this year, we have extinguished car fires with MAUS. We put out a Ginetta G20 where the brake fluid had caught fire and a Time Attack Corvette where we were very close to using the powder extinguisher, but the MAUS Xtin Klein was able to put out that engine fire as well. Extinguishing a fire with a powder extinguisher in such exclusive and unique cars would be devastating and therefore MAUS is a natural part of our equipment.

Ossi Billström

Homeowner, Upplands Väsby

"I had given my friend a Maus that he had in his track cart. When he was out driving in the forest, he noticed smoke in front of the window. He ran out with Maus in hand and saw it burst into flames. He pulled the trigger and sprayed the fire and it went out instantly. He was very grateful afterwards and avoided expensive costs if he had extinguished with a powder extinguisher (which was also in the cab)."

How does MAUS put out fires with potassium-containing smoke?

The harmless, non-toxic MAUS aerosol smoke encapsulates combustible particles in their smallest form and prevents re-ignition. As a result, the fire will go out completely without endangering your or other people's health. The developed suppression agent produces pyrotechnic aerosols, which have the ability to stop the free radicals in the fire.

Does it remove the oxygen?

No, you will be able to breathe well even after using the MAUS Fire Suppressor. There is a neutralization of hydrogen, oxygen and hydroxide radicals in the flame, meaning it does not extract or remove oxygen from the flame. CO2 fire extinguishers have a large filling volume and, unlike the MAUS Fire Suppressor, can endanger people by removing oxygen if in an enclosed space.

Why is it not certified according to a 3-7 as a standard fire extinguisher?

There is currently no standard to certify our extinguishing agent (potassium) against. We have been in contact with the major testing agencies, but the extinguishing agent is too new for them to be able to certify the extinguishing agent against any standard.

What is the difference between extinguishing a fire with powder and potassium smoke?

Powder is great as an extinguishing agent, but can also be great at destroying everything in its path. The potassium mix does not destroy anything. However, it is difficult to measure up to the extinguishing power of a powder extinguisher.

What does it mean that the product is not pressurized? Can it explode?

No, it can't. Our technology is PGA. Pyrotechnically generated aerosol. This means that we use a different technology than conventional pressurized fire extinguishers. Our products are not activated by pressure but by a small pyrotechnic device that triggers the solid potassium compound to create a chemical reaction that heats it and converts the solid compound into nanoparticles (the white smoke).

The product warranty is 5 years from the date of manufacture, any services required for the 5 year duration or just replace it every 5 years?

No, it is completely maintenance-free. Replace the product after 5 years. The new lifespan of MAUS Xtin Klein is 6 years from the date of production.

MAUS™ has exclusive distributors worldwide who work with our brand and our products. We work with an extinguishing agent that is environmentally friendly and completely non-toxic. Do like many others, always use MAUS™ first!
