TRAIN WHERE AN EMERGENCY IS LIKELY TO OCCUR - WITH LION TECHNOLOGY

When it comes to fire extinguisher training, it's crucial to go beyond the basics. Proper preparation can mean the difference between a minor incident and a catastrophic disaster. Enter the RACE Station and Bullseye Panel, a dynamic duo of training tools that take fire extinguisher training to a whole new level.

Realistic Scenarios in Real Locations

The RACE Station, short for "Rescue, Alarm, Confine, Extinguish," is designed to replicate real-world fire emergency scenarios. It allows training professionals to set up training environments that closely resemble the locations where emergencies are most likely to occur.

Imagine being able to recreate an office, a kitchen, or a manufacturing facility with all the components in place, including fire extinguishers, pull stations, alarms, fires, and even electrical shut-off switches. With the RACE Station, this level of realism is achievable. Trainees can practice fire response strategies in the very locations where they might need to act in a real emergency.

The Bullseye Panel: TRAINING FOR ALL

Complementing the RACE Station is the Bullseye Panel, a cutting-edge technology that provides trainees with immediate feedback on their fire extinguisher aim and accuracy. The Bullseye Panel is placed strategically within the training environment, ensuring that trainees are not only using the right type of fire extinguisher but also effectively hitting their target. Among the many advantages of the RACE Station is that it can be used over and over again and anyone can use it without fear of getting dirty, being exposed to a flame, all without creating a mess.
