The Sentinel has been designed as a first responder to agricultural fires. Mounted on the tractor as a front weight replacement, the system is in or close to working machinery at all times. With a range of tank sizes and pump options available, there is a Sentinel to suit every operation. Honda petrol engine-driven pumps provide complete independence from the tractor, while hydraulic drive options are available for systems that remain permanently coupled.

The Sentinel features a Quick Hitch option, allowing it to be lifted using only the lower arms, without leaving the cab to attach a time-consuming top link. This allows the unit to be positioned in the working field, ready for any tractor to pick up quickly in the event of an emergency.

The Sentinel is fitted with specialist nozzles and, as standard, 30 meters of high-pressure hose, providing ample time and water to tackle a fire while the emergency services are en route. In many cases, the Sentinel will be capable of suppressing the fire before emergency services arrive.

The standard tank size is 1000 litres, which has been tested to provide an optimal balance between manoeuvrability, weight carrying, and firefighting duration. All systems are fitted with quick-fill Banjo connections to allow rapid filling and emptying.

A variety of options are available, including fire beaters, custom nameplates, front-mounted cameras, and integrated toolboxes, to name a few. Headlights are supplied as standard on all models.

The system can also be used to wash down equipment and to transport water easily around the farm.

Typical applications include mounting on corn cart tractors for combine and crop fires, as well as baler tractors, where an integrated swath roller is available as an option. Increase the versatility of your machinery with the Sentinel at minimal cost – it might just prevent a very expensive insurance claim, or worse.
