Marine Fire and Safety – Protecting Vessels and Critical Marine Assets

Marine fire and safety is a critical requirement for vessels, ports, offshore assets, and marine-based infrastructure operating in harsh and high-risk environments. Fire incidents at sea or in port facilities can escalate rapidly due to confined spaces, electrical systems, fuel sources, and limited emergency response access.

MultiTorque Fire Suppression supplies proven marine fire and safety solutions designed to protect people, vessels, and high-value marine equipment while meeting Australian standards and operational demands.

Why Marine Fire and Safety Is Critical

Marine environments present unique fire risks that differ significantly from land-based facilities. These include:

Confined engine rooms and electrical compartments
Flammable fuels and hydraulic systems
Salt exposure causing corrosion and electrical faults
Continuous vibration and mechanical stress
Limited evacuation and firefighting access

Effective marine fire and safety systems must be compact, corrosion-resistant, fast-acting, and reliable in both manned and unmanned spaces.

Marine Fire and Safety Solutions Supplied by MultiTorque

MultiTorque supplies a wide range of marine fire and safety equipment suitable for commercial vessels, workboats, ports, and offshore applications.

Aerosol Fire Suppression for Marine Applications

Condensed aerosol fire suppression systems are ideal for marine environments due to their compact size and minimal infrastructure requirements. These systems are commonly used to protect:

Engine rooms
Electrical switchboards
Control cabinets
Battery compartments
Generator enclosures

Aerosol fire suppression systems work by interrupting the chemical combustion process, providing fast fire knockdown without water, foam, or high-pressure gas cylinders.

Marine Fire Extinguishers

MultiTorque supplies marine-rated fire extinguishers suitable for:

Engine and machinery spaces
Accommodation areas
Electrical rooms
Deck and cargo areas

Available extinguisher types include dry chemical, CO₂, and clean agent options designed for marine compliance and durability.

Electrical and Equipment Fire Protection

Marine vessels rely heavily on electrical systems, making electrical fire protection essential. Fire protection solutions are available for:

Switchboards and control panels
Navigation and communication systems
Lithium-ion battery installations
Shore power connections

Clean-agent and aerosol-based systems help protect sensitive electronics without damaging critical equipment.
