Concept's smoke machines, with their class leading particle size and persistency, are ideally suited to creating realistic dense smoke concentrations suitable for confined space training, emergency evacuation and breathing apparatus training.
For large, heavily-used fixed training facilities, the ViCount system is normally recommended, as its running costs are dramatically lower than most other systems thanks to the incredible hang time of ViCount smoke. The ViCount requires an inert gas supply to operate (e.g. CO2 or Nitrogen cylinders) and after every operation, this gas is used to clean the filters and the heat exchanger, which means ViCounts are virtually maintenance free.
For other BA chambers, Aircraft Fuselages or Ship Training applications the Colt 4 Turbo or Spirit 900A would be recommended. These are simple, reliable smoke generators producing the most persistent water based smoke currently available.

"During nearly 20 years working with the fire brigade and as a fire consultant I have never come across a better smoke machine than the Colt 4.
We use it for training of our BA crews, we use it for training large companies to evacuate their personnel and we use it for training shipcrews to act right in a smoke filled environment.
The machine is light, easy to handle and it creates a tremendously good, persistent and realistic smoke!
THE COLT 4 SAVE LIVES!"

> view allWe are manufacturers of all types of Fire Training Equipment i.e. Fire Houses, Aircraft, Ships etc and use the Concept range of Smoke Heads and Smoke Machines, in particular the ViCount 5000, over the last 15 years.
We use the oil based smoke system which produces smoke that will not dissipate when subjected to heat unlike water based smoke systems.
The Concept units have proven to be very reliable and robust when operated and maintained in accordance with Concept operating and maintenance instructions.
We have installed around 500 units some of which have been in service since being installed 15 years ago.
