Pyrogen Fire Suppression for Marine Applications - Yachts, Boats, Vessels and Pleasure Craft
Pyrogen Marine Suppression systems provide a total solution to protecting boats and small vessels from the high-risk dangers of fire when at sea or on lakes and waterways
Even a small fire at sea or on a waterway can have serious consequences if it isn’t extinguished immediately. Portable fire extinguishers are well suited for smaller fires in the galley or the accommodation spaces. In the engine bay or room it can be difficult to use a portable unit as it requires that the operator get uncomfortably close to the hot oil fire flames and it may be difficult to get close enough to the source of the fire. With a Pyrogen fixed fire extinguishing system you don’t have to access the engine room or lift a hatch, and thereby increase the fire intensity. All that is needed to extinguish even the most severe engine or bilge fire is to push two buttons. As a fail-safe, the Pyrogen fire extinguishing system activates automatically when the sensor cable in the engine area reaches 105 deg C.
The heart of the ultra compact Pyrogen Marine system is the SP-1 control panel. The control unit is used for monitoring and activating the compact Pyrogen canister. The control panel is activated by either pressing the two buttons on the front simultaneously or by the sensor cable in the engine room when the temperature exceeds 105 deg C.
Pyrogen Marine Systems are optimized for use with Pyrogen generators.
Features:
- Ultra compact and aesthetically pleasing dash mounting control unit.
- Minimal disruption to boat for installation.

- Minimal maintenance required - Automatic or manual release.
- Meets European standards for marine fire systems.
- Extensively tried and tested technology and equipment.
- Available in various sizes to suit all types of boats and vessels
- Fully compatible with Pyrogen generators.
Case Study - Manual Triggered Pyrogen System
The Navy of Finland recently completed pyrogen installation on a fuel barge KAMPELA used to transport flammable liquids. The installation complies with all the new environmental guidlines. This manually operated system provides a cost effective solution to fire protection on this fuel barge KAMPELA.
