At Viking, we're committed to making training accessible to all. That's why we've developed Virtual Viking—a cutting-edge virtual reality (VR) platform that allows users to explore Viking’s product functionality from anywhere, at any time. Immerse yourself in interactive learning where you can witness firsthand the intensity of a fire within a building and observe how it is effectively controlled through the use of a Viking fire protection system.
Virtual Viking lets you step into a VR environment where you can practice resetting wet, dry, deluge, and preaction systems through available courses. You’ll also gain hands-on experience with components like detection devices and releasing devices such as the pneumatic actuator or electric solenoid, allowing you to familiarize yourself with their functions and operations. These interactive simulations and immersive experiences allow fire protection professionals to take advantage of Viking’s training all from the convenience of their home or office.
