Local Application Watermist

The Ship’s engine spaces require particularly high standards of safety on account of the particular conditions at sea. This applies especially to fire protection, and in particular, and around the engine room, which is home to fuel lines and other supply lines such as those that feed the main engines, auxiliary diesel engines, boiler burners, fuel separators, and pumps. All these are typical areas of risk which must be considered when choosing an extinguishing system. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) therefore recommends a permanent, quick activation fire fighting system to protect equipment on board in addition to the total flooding fire suppression system.
