LIGHT RAIL SYSTEMS, SUBWAY TRAINS AND AIRPORTS

Light rail systems, subways and airports are facilities that contain huge varieties of fire hazards and and may witness huge losses of property and life if not protected properly. The installation of effective fire protection systems for these facilities start in design stages of the buildings whre the criterias imposed by standarts and regulations should be followed strictly. Especially for subways, insufficient or incorrect fire escapes may lead to great losses of life even in a case of fire that is successfully suppressed.
– Subway tunnels also need to have sufficient detection and suppression systems. Because of the vast amount of wires and electrical cables used in the tunnels, a lack of maintenance and/or faulty wires may lead to fires that are very hard to extinguish. Also the transformer rooms, generators, battery and communication centrals in the stations impose great electrical fire threats. Gaseous fire suppression systems should be installed for each of these enclosures.



– In addition to electrical and HVAC fires, airports house various specific hazards due to the existence of fuels and storage areas for fuels. These materials are highly inflammable and a spark may lead to massive fire disasters.
– While fires in light rail systems, subways and airports may easily be prevented and maintaned with correct and sufficient design and periodic tests and maintenance, lack of them lead to rapid fires that are very hard to take under control.
- AY-SO experts are ready to assist you in regards to fire hazards in these facilities within the scope of international standarts and codes.
