Protecting lives and cargo at sea.
Innovative safety solutions for maritime operations.
Enhancing safety on Stena Line’s Jutlantica Ferry.
Embracing technology. Transforming tomorrow.
The challenge.
The RoRo deck on Stena Line’s Jutlantica Ferry is where vehicles are stored and transported.
The open deck’s unique challenges – exposure to exhaust emissions, direct sunlight and blackbody radiation – can trigger false alarms in conventional flame detectors.
Stena Line needed a robust flame detection solution. One that would reliably protect against vehicle fires. Without being affected by environmental factors.
The Micropack process.
- Site assessment. Identifying fire risks and environmental challenges.
- A systematic and expert-led approach. Developing a solution tailored to the conditions.
- Working closely with Stena Line and Consilium Safety. Smoothly integrating the new system with the ferry’s existing safety infrastructure.
The Micropack solution.
A flame detection system perfectly suited to the demanding conditions of a RoRo deck.
System design.
Strategic detector placement to ensure comprehensive coverage of the RoRo deck. And optimal protection against vehicle fires.
Installing FDS301 Intelligent Visual Flame Detectors.
Advanced technology. 30 years of refined flame recognition algorithms. Immune to common environmental triggers (essential on RoRo decks).
The tremendous results.
