<p>A system (10) for dousing a fire, such as a tunnel, includes a conduit (11) for delivering a fire extinguishing liquid and a trough (12) extending parallel to the conduit (11) for receiving liquid from the conduit (11). A carriage (27) is arranged to move on a track comprising an upper edge (19) of the trough (12) and the carriage (27) carries a pump having a nozzle (25), a video camera (33) and an inlet (26) each of which can be controlled robotically from a remote control station. The inlet (26) is deployed in the trough (12) to draw liquid from the trough (12). The system avoids complicated docking procedures for the pump.</p> |
