Fires in energy and utility facilities are particularly dangerous due to the presence of highly flammable materials, complex machinery and high-voltage equipment. Facilities like power plants, oil refineries and substations are spread over large areas and can involve volatile chemicals. A fire in such a setting can lead to catastrophic damage, widespread power outages, environmental disasters and significant safety risks for workers and nearby communities.
Traditional fire detection methods, such as smoke or heat detectors, often face challenges in these environments due to extreme temperatures, dust, smoke and steam from the industrial process, and and the open air nature of such facilities. These systems may also suffer from delayed response times or frequent false alarms, which can compromise safety and efficiency.
SPECIALISING IN FIRE DETECTION
Video flame detection like Ciqurix’s FCam System offers a robust solution to these challenges. By using advanced algorithms and video and infrared analysis, our tech can visually identify the presence of flames in real-time, even in harsh and complex conditions. Video flame detection can monitor extensive areas, including hard-to-reach locations, and provide instant alerts when a fire is detected, allowing for immediate action before the situation escalates.
