New trains in Ireland equipped with AS system

Together with our long-standing sales partner Consilium, we provide reliable firefighting in the new Iarnród Éireann (Irish Rail) lockomotives.

These modern traction cars are built by the renowned Korean company Hyundai Rotem. In close cooperation with Consilium Marine & Safety, an AQUASYS partner for many years and specialist in detection and fire detection systems, a detection and fire suppression system was developed to protect the critical technical areas of the trains.

The individual protection concept ensures independent fire fighting for the main critical areas of the engine compartment as well as the fuel tank. In addition to automated triggering in the event of a fire, the system can also be activated by additionally installed manual triggering devices in the event of a complete lack of power supply.
