Special Hazard Fire Protection Systems

Design & installation of special hazard systems for commercial and industrial facilities

Some risks cannot be protected by a standard sprinkler system alone. Where water would damage high-value equipment, where fuels burn too quickly, or where downtime is simply not an option, a special hazard system provides fast, targeted protection.

Platinum Fire Systems works with you to assess the hazard, select the right extinguishing agent and design a system that protects your people, your assets and your operations. Special hazard systems are usually paired with dedicated detection, so a fire is detected and controlled in its earliest stages.

Where Special Hazard Systems Are Used

• Data centres, server rooms and communications rooms
• Electrical switch rooms and control rooms
• Flammable liquid storage and fuel handling areas
• Manufacturing and process plant
• Commercial kitchens
• Records, archives and other high-value storage
• Gas plants, refineries and other high-hazard industrial facilities

• Clean agent and inert gas systems: protect sensitive electronics and valuable contents without water damage or residue.
• CO2 systems: for unoccupied areas such as plant rooms and industrial processes.
• Foam systems: for flammable liquid hazards, fuel storage and loading areas.
• Dry chemical systems: for fast knockdown of flammable liquid and gas fires.
• Wet chemical kitchen systems: for commercial cooking equipment and exhaust hoods.
• Deluge and pre-action systems: for high-hazard or water-sensitive areas. See our fire sprinkler systems.
