The product

TEC800 — teleoperated firefighting robot

The result of several years of research and development carried out hand in hand with firefighters, the TEC800 is a teleoperated robot designed to operate where human engagement becomes too dangerous.

  • Underground fires & explosion risk: tunnels, car parks, industrial sites, warehouses, refineries.
  • Thermal protection: diffused water jet and remote-controlled water cannon.
  • Towing power: pulls up to 300 m of 70 mm hose filled with water.
  • Zero visibility: day/night cameras and a thermal turret to advance through smoke.

Modular architecture

One platform, every mission

The TEC800 isn't a single-task robot, but an evolving platform. On a common chassis, computer and power supply, mission modules are fitted and swapped in minutes — in the field, with no special tooling.

  • Standardised interface — common mechanical and electronic mounting for every module.
  • Quick changeover — switch from one mission to another mid-operation.
  • One single robot — fire suppression, rescue, logistics and reconnaissance.
  • Scalable — new modules, including bespoke ones, can be integrated.

Fields of use

One robot, four missions

From the heart of the blaze to upstream reconnaissance, the TEC800 multiplies the action of intervention teams.

Fire suppression800 × 600
Mission 01

Fire suppression

The TEC800 advances into the heart of the fire and attacks it with a diffused water jet while protecting itself from the heat. Ideal for underground fires and high explosion-risk areas.

Casualty rescue800 × 600
Mission 02

Casualty rescue

Fitted with a stretcher carrier, the TEC800 makes it easier to extract and evacuate the injured from dangerous zones, without exposing rescuers further.

TEC800 carrying heavy equipment in a logistics role
Logistics support800 × 600
Mission 03

Logistics support

Its technical platform holds tool cages and straps to bring heavy equipment as close as possible to the operation, on any terrain.

Reconnaissance800 × 600
Mission 04

Reconnaissance & data gathering

As a scout, the robot collects data and images — cameras, gas and temperature sensors — on hazardous areas before teams are committed.

Under the hood

Technology built for the field

Every component is designed in-house to withstand the toughest conditions.

All-terrain chassis

Shock absorbers and anti-roll bars ensure grip and stability on any terrain, up to a 45% gradient.

Maintenance-free drive

Rugged, maintenance-free brushless motors powered by removable Li-ION batteries that can be swapped mid-operation.

Monitoring & black box

The robot's health is monitored in real time; a black box records all activity for remote diagnostics.
