Eureka Nordic d.o.o. represents the company Fischcon in Croatia, specialized in supply of Fire Fighting systems of various kinds.
Hellbeater 1200
The Fischcon Hellbeater 1200-range of portable and lightweight firefighting pumpsets are developed and proved as a rapid response unit over a number of years. It can be quickly transported both by air (helicopter) or by road.
The Hellbeater 1200 units are known for their compact, rugged and lightweight design (max 3,000kg per skid). The units have a pump capacity of 20,000 liters/minute at 12 bar and are fitted with a water monitor with a throw length of 120 meters at a 30° angle.
Further, their versatile design allows the Hellbeater to be used in a wide range of activities, such as:
- Firefighting on land, from a seaport or vessel near the shore, because of their excellent throwing distance performance.
- Firefighting on land or as a booster pump for other pumpsets, because of the miscellaneous pump discharge connections with multiple fire hose connections.
- Firefighting in ports, tank terminals or jetties or as a booster pump or by means of the fire water monitor.
- Firefighting on board of other vessels by means of the fire water monitor.
The scope of supply for this diesel-driven Hellbeater 1200 unit typically includes, but is not limited to the following:
- Diesel engine
- Instrument panel
- Fire water pump
- Suction arrangement with hoses
- Discharge arrangement with monitor
- Protection frames
A video on the presentation to Fire Brigade Officers in Split and testing of portable Fi-Fi pump with monitor is available.

Other general info for onshore duties
Other general info for onshore duties
Fischcon delivers diesel-, hydraulic-, and electric-driven pumpsets for onshore duties. Firefighting units to NFPA 20 regulations have been successfully installed at for example canal locks. These units come complete with monitors, piping and control systems and can also provide foam fire extinguishing via separate foam tanks. Fischcon is also the proud supplier of complete mobile units that allow for "super heavy duty" fire fighting. These units for mobile applications are self-contained with POD hook-on systems for truck or airborne transportation with capacities up to 2400 m³/h at 14 bar.
Marine and offshore firefighting systems
For marine applications Fischcon designs and builds fire fighting pump sets with capacities ranging from 150 to 3.600 m³/h with pressures of up to 20 bar. These units are either P.T.O. driven or by their own diesel engine/prime mover. The Fischcon-designed Hellbeater self-contained fire-fighting system has won many battles. This unique all-in-one system mounted in a standard 10ft container, can provide up to 1.400 m³/h with top mounted monitor to beat the fire. Today, there are more than 250 of these Hellbeater units in operation all over the world.
Offshore applications hold no secrets for Fischcon. In cases where water has to be drawn from greater depths, hydraulic driven submersible pumps are installed with their own diesel driven power packs for fire-fighting and ballast systems. Alternatively, electrical submergible pumps can be supplied using special E-motors. Fischcon has installed many submersible Fi-Fi pumps on board FSO´s and FPSO´s to provide the level of safety require Fire fighting systems are built to Class Notations Fi-Fi I, Fi-Fi II and Fi-Fi III.
