Rail Fire Suppression
Fire suppression systems designed to protect rail facilities, switching gear, electrical panels, and vehicles. Reduce downtime and minimise fire risk with fast, automated solutions.
Why Rail Equipment Faces Extreme Fire Risk
There are several risk zones and ways a fire can break out in rail related equipment, including electrical fires in switching gear and transformers from lack of maintenance or electrical faults.
Electrical Faults
Danger of electrical fires in switching gear and transformers can start from lack of maintenance, electrical faults, and overheating.
Rapid Spread
There is an extremely high likelihood of the fire spreading rapidly, not only contained to the ignition area, but spreading to another piece of equipment.
Catastrophic Consequences
The consequences of these fires can be catastrophic to the rail facility and surrounding area, risking major shutdowns and even lives.
Automated Extinguishment within Seconds
Targeted solutions automatically actuate the suppression function within a matter of seconds of the fire starting, helping reduce the amount of damage caused.
- Fast Suppression: Automatically actuates within a matter of seconds.
- Compact Solutions: Suited for smaller support equipment, electrical panels, and switches.
- Large Scale Protection: Designed for larger pieces of equipment, locomotives, and train yards.
- Avoid Major Damage: Protects staff and assets from major fire damage.
Compatible Rail Equipment
Compatible with a wide range of rail support vehicles and electrical systems.
