SnakE® extinguishing system
Foldable retrofit bar for your SnakE® system
vfdb Excellence Award 2025for the SnakE® extinguishing system
Today the crew members stay in the vehicle, a driver and pump operator are enough. That takes a real load off our people.
The folding wildfire spray bar turns your SnakE® system (from SnakE® 4 Basic) into a spray bar for vegetation firefighting: you simply clamp on your existing nozzle modules and secure them with the spring catches. Unfold it, adjust it once to the width of your shackles, hang it in tool-free: at the front or rear, from TSF-W to TLF. This is how you upgrade any pump-and-roll-capable vehicle.
✅ Tool-free on the DIN shackles: front or rear, adjusted once to shackle width, then ready for action
✅ For your existing SnakE® modules: clamp on, close the spring catches, done
✅ 2.25 m spray width unfolded, folded 0.56 m
✅ Folds to Euro box size: every vehicle has room for that
✅ D hose system: combines with your existing equipment
In the box: the retrofit spray bar. Nozzle modules and supply line come from your existing SnakE® equipment (from SnakE® 4 Basic).

As seen in
Step by step
Five steps, tool-free and with minimal personnel. What fire departments say about it appears right next to each step.
Original footage: hang it on the DIN shackles, couple up, done. With sound and in full length further down in the video section.
Clamp the nozzle modules onto the folding bar and secure them with the spring catches.
„One Euro box, that's all the space the complete wildfire retrofit needs. We even had a free compartment for it on our TSF-W.“
Couple the modules with pre-assembled D hoses for an even spray pattern.
Lock it tool-free onto the DIN shackles using the elastic mounts.
„Unfold it, hang it on the shackles, water on. At the first drill the bar was ready for action in under three minutes, with no tools and no manual in hand.“
Central supply line via Storz D, the doors always stay clear.
Wet the firebreak and contain the spread, right from the vehicle.
„A team used to have to walk alongside the vehicle with the nozzle in sweltering heat. Today the crew members stay in the vehicle, a driver and pump operator are enough. That takes a real load off our people.“
Deployment tip Whether TSF-W or TLF: the spray bar mounts at the front or rear and upgrades any pump-and-roll-capable vehicle.

For your setup
Folded 0.56 m, unfolded 2.25 m spray width. Tool-free on the DIN shackles, front or rear, connected via a Storz D supply line.
How far you go
Set tank capacity, pressure and speed. You see right away how long your wet line will be, how long the tank lasts and how much water lands on each square meter.
How it is calculated: 1,000 l ÷ 72 l/min = 13.9 min · 13.9 min × 50 m/min (3 km/h) = 694 m · 694 m × 2.25 m spray width = 1,563 m²
Calculation basis per data sheet: total flow 72 l/min at 3 bar and 92 l/min at 5 bar, spray width 2.25 m with the bar unfolded. Calculated values at constant speed.

Full tactics
The spray bar lays the wet line from the vehicle. Retardant extends its effect, the rotary sprinkler holds the line. Three building blocks that work together.
Wets the firebreak while driving, your crew stays in the vehicle.
You mix it into the extinguishing water, typically at 0.5 to 3%. One 20-liter canister makes around 660 to 4,000 liters of mixed solution, 100% biodegradable.
Strapped to a tree, even on slopes: throw up to 14 m at 4 bar with only approx. 24 l/min water consumption.
The SnakE® Wildfire Set adds four rotary sprinkler nozzles to this set ex works: lay the wet line and hold the line with one system.
Goes with the spray bar
Spray bar, holding line and water supply work hand in hand. This equipment complements your wet line.

On video
Mounting on the DIN shackles from 0:13, alongside it the spray bar in action on open ground and the complete SnakE® system.
More than wildfire
The same nozzle modules upgrade your existing vehicle and cover other incidents between deployments. The spray mist also knocks down smoke gases and dust, protecting your vehicle's radiator.
With the spray bar you lay an even wet line while driving slowly and wet firebreaks, without a team in PPE having to walk alongside the vehicle.
The same SnakE® modules, fitted with a rotary sprinkler nozzle: strapped to a tree, the rotary sprinkler secures your holding line. The lightest rotary sprinkler system for tree mounting.
SnakE® cools the underbody of electric vehicles quickly and efficiently. The modules clip on tool-free to a sectional ladder or the specially optimized aluminum frame, and the system is ready for action.
With the SnakE® modules and sectional ladder sections you quickly set up an effective emergency decon shower, for gross removal of fire particles from all directions.
Arranged as a ring main, the SnakE® nozzles cool gas cylinders effectively without tying up personnel. Nobody has to stay near dangerous acetylene cylinders.

Any pump-and-roll-capable vehicle with DIN shackles, from TSF-W to TLF. The spray bar requires pump-and-roll capability and upgrades the vehicle: hung tool-free at the front or rear, water via a Storz D supply line.
Yes. New wildland fire engines often have front spray nozzles for self-protection. With the SnakE® spray bar you retrofit your existing vehicle: tool-free on the DIN shackles, front or rear, with 2.25 m spray width. The prerequisite is a pump-and-roll-capable vehicle.
Yes. By arrangement, we demonstrate the spray bar on site at your fire department. Just select “Request an on-site demo” in the form below, and we will get back to you with a proposed date.
No. The SnakE® spray bar secures the black (burned-over area) and wets firebreaks. The tactic is containment before the fire spreads.
Your crews ride in the fire engine instead of walking alongside in PPE in the heat. That lowers strain and accident risk, and the water is distributed far more evenly.
Then the SnakE® Spray Bar Set is the right choice: the standalone complete set with bar, nozzles and supply line, usable without a base system. Add four rotary sprinkler nozzles and it becomes the Wildfire Set. If you also want to cool EVs, start with SnakE® 4.
No. For laying firebreaks you can mount it at the front or at the rear. That way the spray bar also works on a TSF-W.
Tool-free on your vehicle's DIN shackles: unfold, set it once to the width of your shackles, hook the shackles into the elastic rubber tensioners and lock, done. The mounting video above shows every step.
Yes. The spray mist knocks down dust and binds it, so your vehicle's radiator stays clean.
Yes. Retardant Euro-FC is mixed into the extinguishing water, typically at 0.5 to 3%. The spray bar applies the mixed solution evenly over a wide area.
For water supply in open terrain, the Kamel® Wildfire Folding Tank, for the holding line, the Tree Rotary Sprinkler, and for a longer-lasting effect, Retardant Euro-FC. The full range is in Vegetation fire equipment.
Yes. SnakE® comes with a 3-year warranty, direct from the manufacturer in Andernach.
Yes. Authorities, municipalities and fire departments order on account, XRechnung included. Just request your quote using the form.
Usually 5 to 10 workdays. Heavy or bulky items ship by freight carrier with tracking.
