POK Demonstrates Its Advanced Jupiter Firefighting Robot With The Help Of Nogent-sur-Seine Firefighters

POK recently unveiled its state-of-the-art firefighting robot, Jupiter and held live demonstrations in collaboration with Nogent-sur-Seine firefighters. Jupiter has been designed for use in confined spaces and has mastered reverse and 360-degree pivoting.

Thanks to this firefighting robot’s progressive speed control, it is very easy to control and maneuver it around obstacles. The particularly low center of gravity of Jupiter increases its grip on all types of grounds.

Jupiter will cross the obstacles and climb as many stairs as necessary without any difficulty. It can pull 60 meters of DN65 type pipes with water. At night or when visibility is difficult, LED spotlights allow a range of 50 meters. In total darkness, the high-resolution LED camera allows perfect use at night.

When empty, Jupiter weighs 260 Kg, and with its monitor lance it can support a weight of 310 Kg. Whatever its load, its maximum speed is 2.6 km/h. Concerning its autonomy, Jupiter can be delivered with as many batteries as necessary, knowing that a battery allows it to work two hours in total autonomy.

Easy operation and maneuverability

There is only one operator required to operate Jupiter without any hassle. Learning to use this device is easy and its use is intuitive. Operatives will find all its technical characteristics summarized in the product brochures.

On Sunday, September 22, 2019, the Nogent-sur-Seine firefighters opened their doors to the public to explain their mission and present their work tools. On this occasion, they took all their vehicles out, along with the Jupiter of POK accompanying them. With her driver’s license, one of the operators, Sylvie was able to lead the demonstrations and help put out a fire. Indoors, the POK stand presented interesting products and reminded the public that POK recruits for all types of jobs.
