Kaercher Futuretech - Field Camp Systems

Kaercher Futuretech offers NBC protection systems, field camp set up and maintenance, mobile catering and water purification solutions for peacekeeping and disaster relief operations.

Field camp systems

Kaercher Futuretech’s range of field camps are deployable military facilities which - after a short assembly time – provide living and working conditions similar to those in the soldier’s home country during an extended period of deployment abroad. Kaercher Futuretech systems promote the well-being of soldiers and task forces and enhance their morale and motivation.

Highly Mobile Field Camp System 150

The Highly Mobile Field Camp System 150 consists of air-transportable modules which form the basis for initial operations. The accommodation trailer (TRUK) includes three tents for eight soldiers each. These tents can be unloaded, set up and disassembled in a few minutes.

The KFH 20/40 heaters heat or ventilate the tents and ensure an agreeable climate inside the tents. Food is prepared in the weather-protected MFK 250 modular field kitchen with integrated CD 10 combi-steamer. Clean drinking water is produced by the WTC 1600 GT which is capable of purifying 40,000L of drinking water per day anywhere in the world.

The sanitary trailer is a compact, highly mobile shower and toilet system which offers the highest level of hygiene in the sanitary area. The mobile TFL 25 field laundry effectively washes and dries dirty laundry anywhere in the world.

FLM modular air-transportable field camp

The FLM consists of a total of twelve components. Our portfolio as the main supplier includes the sanitary, water purification and water distribution components. These will be supplemented by catering systems and laundries in the second stage. All functional units and the different storage spaces are mounted on a standardised transport pallet, the so-called universal transport platform (UTP). All UTPs are loaded on identical tandem-axle trailers and can be transported to the mission. One advantage of the modular system is that the functional units can also be broken down into units for 50 persons. The first components were delivered to the German Armed Forces at the end of 2007.

Mobile field laundry

TFL 25 mobile field laundry

The TFL 25 is robust, functionally safe and specially designed for the field operation of the armed forces and civil organisations.

A trained person can wash and dry up to approximately 25kg of laundry per hour with the newly developed trailer-based mobile laundry from Kaercher Futuretech. The trailer system is a new type of drawbar which is easily adjustable with one hand.

The washing machine was developed as part of cooperation between Kärcher and world market leader Miele.

• Integrated impregnation process
• SPS control unit
• The operator can choose between four languages

The dryer requires a lot less energy thanks to the optimised air conduction and warm air recycling. The optimised drying results are achieved by either time control or measurement of moisture.

The heating system for the washing machine and dryer, for which we have applied for a patent, has a thermal performance of 2 x 30kW (60kW thermal). This guarantees an optimal 90% efficiency.

CFL 60 transportable containerised laundry

The CFL 60 mobile field laundry has been especially designed for the washing and disinfection of all kinds of laundry used in the armed forces, including military hospitals.

Heating and cooling

KFH 20/40 field heater

Quickness, efficiency and economy are very important when drying flooded rooms and storerooms. These features are evident when using the Kaercher KFH 20 or KFH 40 field heaters. They are mobile, immediately ready for use and can be operated independently because they are equipped with multi-fuel burners. They have a high heating capacity and thus a high drying performance.

When heating tents and temporary accommodation the Kärcher Futuretech KFH 20 and KFH 40 field heaters show their unsurpassable efficiency. The necessary temperature is ensured within a few minutes and the heaters provide a permanently comfortable room temperature at outside temperatures down to -32°C or ensure an agreeable room climate in hot environments up to +49°C within a few minutes.

The interior of aeroplanes, and also hangars in which repairs are carried out, occasionally cool down very quickly when not in use. Kaercher Futuretech field heaters are ideal for quick re-heating. Circulating air operation makes the KFH 20/40 a very economical unit.

The KFH 20 and KFH 40 are sturdy air heaters for heating tents, shelters and protection facilities. The machine run quietly and is thus well suited for heating accommodation tents.

MAC 7 mobile air conditioning unit

The MAC 7 mobile air conditioner is a transportable unit which has been designed for cooling the air inside tents or transportable buildings.

The FB 60 ECO is a universal field heater for heating and ventilation for all kind of indoors. Now with CO2 monitor for increased safety in rooms to be heated.
