Trusted Across Heavy Industries Worldwide

Every industry that relies on heavy machinery carries a fire risk. MusterFire systems are purpose-built for the sectors where fires move fast, response times are slow, and the cost of a machine fire is catastrophic.

Mining

Surface and underground mining operations. Excavators, haul trucks, dozers, drill rigs, and loaders. Certified to AS 5062:2022 — the standard mandated by Australian mine operators.

Agriculture

Combine harvesters, tractors, headers, and hay balers. Harvest season fire risk is acute. An automatic system activates before the fire reaches the operator cab.

Construction & Tunnelling

Excavators, road headers, and mobile plant in high-risk, low-egress environments where fire service access is limited.

Waste Management

Compactors, shredders, and balers handling combustible waste streams. Muster foam systems protect the compression chamber before fire spreads to the cab.

Automatic Protection from First Detection to Full Suppression

Every Muster system follows a proven four-stage automatic response sequence. No operator presence required. No delay.

How systems work

An automatic fire suppression system protects machines and assets from fire. Muster brings this protection to life with systems engineered for performance and reliability.

Detect

MusterWire detects fire early by sensing temperature changes, enabling the control panel to constantly monitor the system.

Activate

The system automatically activates, sounding an alarm, initiating shutdown sequence, and releasing firefighting agent.

Suppress

Heat-sensitive cables to detect and automatically activate the system, discharging fire-fighting agents in high-risk areas.

Certified to Australian and International Standards

Every Muster system is engineered and certified to the standards that mine operators, site safety managers, and insurers require.

AS 5062:2022

Fire protection of mobile and transportable equipment. Required on Australian mine sites.

AS 4487:2013

Condensed aerosol fire extinguishing systems. Muster SAG certified.

CSIRO Verified

Muster IPS carries CSIRO verification — Australia's gold standard for independent scientific product validation.

ISO 9001:2015

Muster systems are designed and produced under an ISO 9001:2015 certified Quality Management System.

FAQs

What is an automatic fire suppression system?

An automatic fire suppression system detects a fire and activates suppression agent discharge without any operator input. On Muster systems, detection via LHD or LOP triggers the alarm panel, initiates machine shutdown, and opens the cylinder valve — all within seconds of fire detection.

What industries does MusterFire serve?

MusterFire serves mining, agriculture, construction, waste management, oil and gas, on-road transport, and marine industries — any sector relying on heavy mobile equipment in high-risk environments.

What fire suppression systems does Muster offer?

Muster offers five system types: Foam-Based, Misting, Solid Aerosol (SAG), Impulse Powder (IPS), and Portable Fire Extinguishers.

Are Muster systems certified to Australian Standards?

Yes. Muster Foam-Based and Misting systems are certified to AS 5062:2022. The Muster SAG Series are ActivFire certified under Certificate AFP-3065 and have been evaluated and verified by CSIRO Verification Services as conforming with the relevant requirements of AS 4487:2013, ISO 15779:2011, AS 1851:2012 and NFPA 2010:2006. The M2IPS Series has been evaluated and verified by CSIRO Verification Services against the relevant requirements of AS 4487:2013, ISO 15779:2011, AS 1851:2012, NFPA 2010:2006 and UL 2127, Edition 1.

Does the suppression system work on autonomous vehicles?

Yes. All Muster systems are designed for use on both manned and autonomous vehicles. The Remote Activation Device allows the fire suppression system to be activated from a safe distance away from the vehicle.

What is Muster360?

Muster360 is a cloud-based platform used by authorised distributors for step-by-step system design, bill of materials generation, and commissioning documentation. It also provides system design and commissioning documentation for authorised distributors.

Are Muster suppression agents environmentally responsible?

Yes. Muster uses fluorine-free foam (F3) as its standard suppression agent. F3 foam is PFAS-free, biodegradable, and compliant with Australian environmental protection requirements.

How do I buy or install a Muster fire suppression system?

Muster systems are sold and installed through a network of authorised distributors. Use the Find Distributor tool on musterfire.com to locate your nearest distributor.

What is the difference between LHD and LOP detection?

LHD is an electrically controlled system where a heat-sensitive cable triggers an alarm at the panel. LOP uses pressurised tubing that physically ruptures at the point of flame contact, triggering discharge mechanically without any electrical power.

Does MusterFire operate internationally?

Yes. MusterFire International operates through a global authorised distributor network with systems deployed in mining, agricultural, and construction operations worldwide.
