MX 1230 NOVEC (CLEAN GAS)

At sea, safety requirements for ships are of the utmost importance. This also applies to fire protection measures. After all, in the
event of fire, rapid escape is usually impossible and the prompt arrival of help from outside cannot be expected. In light of the
various types of fire risks which exist on board ships, specific solutions are necessary for the space or object to be protected
in order to ensure optimal fire protection on board. Areas that deserve special attention include rooms with electrical and elec-
tronic devices, such as control rooms, control cabinets and smaller machine rooms on ships. In such risk areas, extinguishing
systems which put out fires quickly yet carefully are essential, in order to ensure that sensitive equipment is not damaged by
residues left by the extinguishing agent. With the MX 1230 Marine and MX 200 Marine clean agent fire suppression system,
Aksis has developed solutions which meet the demanding requirements on board a ship. For instance, the fire suppression
systems can even be dimensioned wIth 50-bar system pressure. The systems are distinguished through the presence of the au-
thorised and tested chemical suppressors NovecTM 1230 and HFC-227ea: neither fire suppressor is corrosive nor electrically
conductive, nor causes any damage to sensitive parts through short circuits or residues. The MX 1230 Marine and MX 200
Marine dean agent fire suppression systems are available for tugboats, coast and inland navigation vessels and small yachts,
in addition to drilling rigs The size of the room to be protected is a key focus for both systems. As a result, they offer optimal
fire protection in smaller rooms, and are fully certified with all major marine sector approvals.

SPRINKLER SYSTEMS

Sprinkler systems are self-acting fire extinguishing systems having an uncomplicated as well a safe functioning principle. A
network of piping and sprinkler heads are installed throughout the areas of the building requiring protection and is constantly
under pressure. Under normal conditions the sprinkler head is closed off by a liquid-filled bulb. If due to the effects of a fire, the
ambient temperature in the immediate vicinity rises by approximately 30 c° above the maximum temperature expected under
normal conditions, the glass bulb bursts. Then pressurized extinguishing water flows through the piping into the sprinkler head
and the resulting water jet hits the spray plate which diverts the spray to the areas to be covered. At the same time the water flow
in the piping network trips the alarm systems. When the fire is extinguished, replace the activated sprinkler that was activated
and the system is ready for operation again.

MINIFOG MARINE HIGH PRESSURE WATER MIST SYSTEM

PROTECTION

The special conditions at sea mean that safety is an incredibly important issue for ships. The aim is to prevent any danger to
make sure everything runs smoothly on board. And the key safety issue for passenger ships is of course the people on board.
Ships are subject to a whole range of fire risks, which means fire protection on board has to be all the more effective. After all,
in the event of a fire, it is not as easy to escape when at sea, and prompt fire-fighting assistance from outside cannot be count-
ed on. Minimax has developed the Minifog marine XP water mist extinguishing system specially for maritime risks. It takes
high-pressure technology to new dimensions. Many years of experience in water mist extinguishing technology and the marine
sector have gone into the research, and the Minifog marine XP is the result. It complies with all relevant directives and, above
all, it is extremely easy to use. Minifog marine XP offers the optimum allaround protection for seagoing and inland navigation
vessels. The fire protection system can protect passenger, public and storage areas, as well as engine rooms. In short, it’s an
entirely new level of operational safety. The Minifog marine XP features a sophisticated design which has been thought through
right down to the last detail – from installation to protection against clogging or breakdown.

The efficient Minifog marine XP water mist extinguishing system can be used in all areas of the ship:

• Accommodation, public space and store areas

• Engine rooms
• Local application system

Minifog marine XP advantages:

• Uses 90% less extinguishing water than classic sprinkler systems.

• Engine rooms of up to 8,235 m³ volume.
• Conduit diameters from 10 to 42 mm save valuable space.
• No separate fi re protection system needed to protect the engine rooms.
• Just one sprinkler in a cabin can cover up to 32 m².
• Sprinklers can be spaced up to 6 m apart in the corridors.
• Protects the entire engine rooms, including objects and the bilge, with just one nozzle type.
• Stainless steel sprinklers and nozzles.

CO2 SYSTEM

Carbon Dioxide has been used as an extinguishant in fixed installations since the beginning of the twentieth century, Carbon
Dioxide is a colourless, odourless, dry, inert gas and is one of the most Wellknown of all fire extinguishants. The standard size
cylinders used for the system is 67.5 L steel cylinders filled with 5 Kg of Carbon Dioxide. Cylinders can be delivered in accord-
ance with the requirements of the various national authorities, including required stamping and certificates

SAMPLE EXTRACTION SMOKE DETECTION SYSTEM

II-2, Regulation 13-1 The smoke detection system is suitable for controlling up to cargo holds. It uses the existing CO2 fire
extinguishing pipe work through which air is continually sucked from the cargo hold. In the smoke detection system itself the
air which has been taken from the cargo hold is examined for smoke and blown out of the vessel by fans. The smoke detection
system SDS-48 is explosion protected. For remote indication of fire alarms and faults a repeater panel must be installed in the
wheelhouse. It will be connected to the smoke detection panel only by a 4-wire cable.

MINIFOG WATERMIST SYSTEM (Local Application System)

MINIFOG WATERMIST SYSTEM (Local Application System) Ships require particularly high standards of safety on account
of the particular conditions at sea, This applies especially to fire protection, and in particular in 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 extinguish-
ing system. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) therefore recommends a per manent, quick activation fire fighting
system to protect equipment on board in addition to the total flooding fire suppression system.

FIRE DETECTION AND ALARM SYSTEM

Fire detection systems are essential components of a responsible safety management concept each object and each area of
use holds special risks and requirements. Aksis provides for the optimum detection of fires and the perfect. Safe and fast fire
detection is an essential component of a reliable fire protection concept. The earlier a fire is detected, the smaller the hazards
and damages caused by the fire. Here, customized planning is of special importance~ The cooperation of fire protection control
panel, detectors and alarms facilitates a fast reaction in case of fire - ideally, by automatic activation of an extinguishing system.
In this way you will have the situation under control immediately.

WATER SPRAY SYSTEM

If conditions are such that extremely rapid spreading of a fire can be expected, then Aksis water-spray extinguishing systems
can provide maximum safety. Water-spray extinguishing systems operate with open extinguisher nozzles which, in the event of
fire, distribute the extinguishing water over the entire protected area, the quantity of extinguishant needed being minimal. Spray
extinguishing increases the surface area of the extinguishing water, entrains the heat of in addition to this cooling effect there is
a smothering effect because the steam produced impedes the oxygen supply to the base of the fire. Water-spray extinguishing
systems are designed for space or equipment protection. In the case of space protection the extinguishing water is distributed
evenly across the whole area of the fire hazard. The extinguishing nozzles are therefore arranged evenly spaced at ceiling level,
In the case of equipment protection systems, defined objects particularly subject to fire hazard are provided with water spray for
protection or for preventive cooling. The extinguishing nozzles are therefore arranged to be specifically aimed at the object. For
tall objects they may also be installed at several levels.

DEEP FAT FRYER SYSTEM

The KS 2000-8 compact extinguishing system has been speci cally designed for use in catering kitchens. The re
detection elements repond the moment the rst small ame occurs, and the re is promptly extinguished before serious
damage occurs.

DRY POWDER SYSTEM

The extinguishing powders used in powder extinguishing systems are highly efficient, quick-acting extinguishants.
The sudden extinguishing effect of the powder cloud is caused by the suffocation effect and the anticatalytic effect,
a chemical intervention into the combustion process. Extinguishing powders mainly consist of non-poisonous in-
organic salts mixed with waterproofing and pouring agents. They are used for fires with solid, liquid or gaseous
substances and for metal fires, thus, they are used for fire classification A, B, C and D.
