SIA Unitruck has successfully delivered and installed fire safety systems in electrical distribution cabinets at CEWOOD SIA, significantly improving safety in an industrial wood-based acoustic panel production environment.
Electrical distribution cabinets are among the most critical and simultaneously high-risk elements in production environments. Even a minor fault can cause ignition, leading to downtime and significant financial losses. This solution ensures early fire detection and suppression directly at the point of origin, as well as the availability of alarm signals for the facility’s security and fire alarm systems.
Customized solution
Each distribution cabinet was individually adapted to the specific conditions of the site:
- Electrical equipment risk assessment
- Integration of compact fire suppression systems inside the cabinets
- Fast detection and automatic activation
- Integration into the existing infrastructure without disruption
Technology
The system uses the fire suppression agent Novec 1230 and a direct-acting detection system, which:
- Effectively suppresses fire at an early stage directly at its point of origin.
- Does not damage electrical equipment.
- Leaves no residue after activation.
- Is safe for use in enclosed spaces.
Benefits for the customer
By implementing this solution, CEWOOD SIA gains:
- Immediate response in the event of a fire in electrical distribution cabinets.
- Reduced risk of downtime and associated costs.
- Improved employee safety
- More reliable production process.
Why it matters
In an industrial environment, fire safety is an essential component of continuous operation. Early fire suppression in electrical equipment significantly reduces the risk of major incidents and protects company assets.
