Whether mechanical engineering, the automotive industry, the steel industry or the chemical industry – many branches of industry today are characterized by mass production and a high degree of automation. Even the smallest fires can have devastating effects: from production interruptions to complete production downtimes. The damage can quickly cost companies millions of dollars.
Due to the numerous fire risks in industry, fire protection in production facilities plays a critical role; early fire detection, as provided by our TITANUS® aspirating smoke detectors, is an important basis. Why this is the case quickly becomes clear when you consider the prevailing risks and the individual protection goals of those responsible.
RISK ANALYSIS
In production, the work itself is often associated with a high fire risk. In the chemical industry, hazardous gases or other flammable and toxic substances can quickly be produced. In other industrial branches, operations such as welding, cutting or soldering and the associated high temperatures or sparks that can trigger a fire and thus endanger lives and production processes. Defects in electronic instruments or automation equipment often lead to cable or smoldering fires that can spread quickly.
PROTECTION GOALS
SOLUTION
In industrial production with valuable goods and fast throughput times, the earliest possible fire detection is crucial in order to be able to initiate countermeasures quickly to reduce the risk of a fire starting and spreading rapidly. This is where we rely on the use of our TITANUS® aspirating smoke detectors, which detect fires in the early development phase and are immune to false alarms.
By combining our TITANUS® early fire detection system with our fire prevention (OxyReduct® ) and firefighting (FirExting® ) systems, we offer you holistic solutions for the safety of your applications in selected industrial sectors.
