Water mist fire prevention system on ship

Supply and installation of Water Mist fire prevention system on the 6281 Regent vessel.

The purpose of the project is to provide complete protection of the ship according to the standards and technical specifications provided in the tender phase  by the owner  from the earliest ship construction phases (precisely in conjunction with the hot welding processes and straightening of the plates, when fires may occur).

The PSC Group supplied the fire-fighting system consisting of skid pumps, skid back-up cylinders, Ultrafog command and production control panels,  pipes and fittings with related slotted profiles, and handled  their fixing to the ship’s structures.  The laying of pipes  in narrow areas involved  personnel highly specialized in the naval sector  in possession of welding and piping qualifications.

Project phase

Verification and management of the contract’s engineering from work commencement up to issuance of the “as-built” drawings

Testing of materials with classification bodies such as RINA, LLOYD’S and similar.
