Transport

Innovative flame detection solutions built for the transport industry. 

Fires within the transport industry can be deadly. Micropack offers a range of detector technologies to reliably detect all fire types in a variety of applications.

Flame detection within the challenging due to the presence of hot CO2 emissions from exhausts and varying heat sources.

You need a solution that ignores common sources of false alarms while delivering exceptional coverage and reliability. Ideally, the solution should improve safety, reduce operating costs, and only detect fire.

The importance of fire safety in the Transport industry

Your challenge: reliably protecting people, property and the environment from fire.

Fire safety within the transport industry is one of the many safety issues managers must address to minimise the risk of injury or death to staff and the public. Unlike most of the other safety concerns, fire has the potential to injure or kill large numbers of people very quickly.

The typical transport applications where fire safety is paramount, and optical flame detectors are applied, are as follows:

  • truck/ tanker loading racks
  • fuelling stations - petrol, hydrogen and LNG/CNG 
  • airport terminals and hangars (passenger and freight);
  • ferry/shipping ports (passenger and freight);
  • rail (surface – train/light rail/tram – and sub-surface) terminals, stations and platforms;
  • bus/coach fuelling stations, terminals and stations;
  • transport interchanges;
  • tunnels (road)

Micropack flame detectors are trusted to provide reliable protection of hazardous transport applications.

Applications

We understand that no two environments are the same, which is why our solutions can be tailored to the needs and nature of your business and its surrounding environment. This way, you have smart flame detection systems with the ability to know when to alarm, and when not to.

  • Hydrogen

    Hydrogen use in transport applications presents a unique set of challenges. Our FDS303H is designed to detect hydrogen fires safely and reliably.

  • Road Tunnels

    The remoteness and congestion of road tunnels make it a high-risk environment for fire. Micropack Visual Flame Detection is proven for use in tunnels.
