Background
Snowy Hydro provides on demand, reliable energy to Australia with gas fired power stations. One crucial part of maintaining these types of assets is fire protection. Power generating equipment, whether a standalone unit, incorporated into a machine or equipment or adjacent to a structure, runs independently and is unattended most of the time. So, fire presents a significant risk. A short in the equipment or a power surge can trigger a fire that can spread out of control quickly.
Challenge
Snowy Hydro was looking for a reliable supplier to provide them with an Australian compliant fire suppression system for their diesel generators located in Canberra. They needed a trustworthy supplier who could design and supply the right suppression system for them and train their technicians in terms of maintenance and troubleshooting.
Solution
Delta Fire did a detailed risk assessment and reviewed the project specifications with the team at Snowy Hydro.
We installed the Delta Fire Mobile Foam Fire Suppression System utilising fluorine free foam, compliant with AS506, in line with Government Regulations. This is a guaranteed high-quality product from a trusted name that will protect their assets without harming the environment.
