The CAT 982 XE Wheel Loader

This 78,000 lb. machine is equipped with an AFEX fire suppression system. From quarries and mines to large-scale construction sites, these wheel loaders spend long hours operating in demanding conditions where reliability is everything.

Even the toughest equipment faces fire risks from hydraulic leaks, electrical faults, and overheated components. That's why operators trust AFEX to provide automatic fire detection and suppression when seconds matter most. Protect your operators, equipment, and uptime with a fire protection system designed specifically for heavy machinery.

In high-risk environments like mining, construction, forestry, and waste handling, these systems can mean the difference between a minor incident and a total loss.

From fire suppression to diesel engine and off-road vehicle protection, AFEX helps reduce downtime and prevent catastrophic damage. If you’re running loaders, excavators, haul trucks, or dozers, investing in a proven automatic fire suppression system is essential.

We're excited to introduce the next-generation Compact Panel!

This new panel keeps the simple, compact design our distributors already know, but adds upgrades that make it easier to install, easier to service, and easier to use in the field. Operators can now discharge the system directly from the panel when needed with the push of a button, giving them a faster way to respond during an emergency.

It’s also built to make life easier for distributors, with flexible power options, fewer wiring connections, compatibility with existing AFEX system setups, and downloadable system data for troubleshooting.
