Magnum Australia Pty Ltd Since 1972, Magnum engineers have patented water, dust & fire systems — cannons, autonomous fire suppression, robotic fire cannons.

Trusted across mining, construction, agriculture & fire protection to eliminate risk in the world's harshest environments. Magnum® Australia is identified throughout the mining industry for its ability to design, fabricate and fit out custom water tankers to become transformed in to specialist dedicated mining water trucks. In recent years, Magnum® Australia has identified market needs and, in addition, now tailors its business to manufacturing and supplying major hardware components for the water cart / tanker industry throughout National and International mining sectors. Magnum® Australia's extensive product lines in these areas include:

• Magnum® spray head valves

• Magnum® custom designed and configured water cannons

• Pumping stations - hydraulic, petrol and diesel driven

• Magnum® cabin switching and control systems - optional pneumatic, hydraulic and fully electrical; with much industry preference toward newly offered radio frequency (r.f.) control systems.

• Magnum® system tanker piping, pressure bars, dribble bars etc.

• Magnum® designed and fabricated water trucks to meet all mine specification protocols.

• Required water valves and general operating components necessary to configure a water tanker.

• Magnum® heavy duty hose reels - hydraulic rewind or manually operated up to 1.5" as standard; custom sizes available to order. With a very real corporate focus on Dust Management, Magnum Australia has over 35 years extensive experience in this field, and to this end, has developed various systems to aid dust suppression. Magnum® Australia has continued to invest heavily in it’s own Research and Development (R&D) department located in Melbourne, with a focus to developing improved specialist systems to aid all OEM’s and end users of water delivery equipment in mining; with tailored systems for the individual client needs. An insight in to Magnum Australia and their leading edge products can be obtained by contacting them directly or speaking with a recognised Magnum Distributor in your area.

Ever wondered how Therminator® actually "sees" a fire before it starts? It's not smoke detection, it's heat detection. A high-resolution thermal camera scans 24/7, picking up abnormal heat long before any flame or smoke shows up.

No night-shift required, no guesswork, just constant watch. Drop a comment if you'd like to see it in action, we're always happy to show the tech off.

At Bulga Coal in the Hunter Valley, NSW, Magnum Australia's remote-controlled STORM water cannons are hard at work.

Bulga is a large open cut operation producing high-grade metallurgical and thermal coal, 15km south-west of Singleton, exactly the scale and dust/water management load our remote cannons were engineered for. Operated wirelessly from up to 450 metres away, STORM lets crews manage dust suppression, washdown and water application across the site without putting a person in the danger zone.

A good look at what Magnum equipment does on a real, high-tempo operating site, not just on a spec sheet. Get in touch if you'd like to see where STORM could fit on yours.

Magnum Australia was proud to support the waste and recycling sector at Waste Expo Australia 2026.

With lithium battery fires such a major focus this year, we were surprised to be the only exhibitor on the floor with a dedicated fire detection and suppression solution for the risk now facing the industry.

Our interactive display drew strong interest from some of the sector’s biggest names, particularly those managing Material Recovery Facilities and Waste Transfer Stations, and we spent two busy days talking through how Therminator® uses world-leading thermal and AI imagery to detect and suppress fire risks 24/7.

With an average of 33 fires a day now reported across the waste sector, it matters to have a business that doesn’t just talk about solutions, but builds and refines them to suit site-specific detection and suppression needs, listening to the industry every step of the way- Disruptive Engineering empowering partners and clients - That effort was recognised with Magnum Australia awarded Best Display Stand at Waste Expo 2026.

Missed us on the floor? Visit our website or email [email protected] and our team will be in touch.

Waste Expo Australia has wrapped for another year, and we're a little sad to see it go. But we're leaving with some very good news: Magnum took out Best Stand!

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by for a chat over the past few days, about fire risk, Therminator®, and where the industry is heading. The conversations made the whole show worth it.

We're on the floor at Waste Expo today, and day one has already brought some great conversations, about fire risk, insurance expectations, and where Therminator® fits into the bigger picture for waste and recycling operators.

Come find the Magnum stand at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), we'd love to chat.

Ever wondered why your insurance premium keeps creeping up? For waste and recycling sites, fire risk is a big part of that story.

We’ve just published a new article on what insurers actually want to see when it comes to fire protection, and how systems like our Therminator® are changing that conversation. Read the full article here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/fire-protection-becoming-insurance-conversation-just-vacoc

Also, we’re at Waste Expo Australia today! Come check out our Magnum solutions, including the Therminator, at the Magnum stand.

Over the past fortnight we've been sharing how Therminator®, our AI-driven fire suppression system, is helping protect waste and recycling sites from thermal runaway risk. If you missed the detail on LinkedIn, here's the short version: continuous thermal monitoring, a robotic water cannon, and suppression that acts before a fire exists, not after. Just days until Waste Expo Australia, where you can see it in person!

A $68 million facility. Dual processing lines handling 35 tonnes an hour. One fire risk that never sleeps.🧯

At Greenovate's new South East Queensland Materials Recovery Facility, Magnum's Therminator® stands guard, scanning for heat signatures as small as 5cm x 5cm from 50 metres away, then hitting a confirmed threat with a targeted water strike within seconds of detection. 🧯

No smoke needed. No flame needed. Just heat, caught before it becomes a problem. 🧨

Read how we helped protect one of the region's biggest recycling infrastructure investments, on the blog. 👇🏼

South East Queensland has a new benchmark in resource recovery. Greenovate's new $68 million Materials Recovery Facility is now operational, processing up to 65,000 tonnes of recyclables a year, and Magnum Australia contributed to the fire suppression systems protecting this world-class facility.

Congratulations to the entire Greenovate team.
