8. FIRE PROTECTION
(Plans on pages N°125 to N°127)
8.1. Installation
-
Fire extinguishers are subject to national regulations in different countries, and for this reason,
your boat is supplied without any portable extinguishers.
-
We advise that you equip your boat with fire extinguishers conforming to the ISO 9094 (2015).
a)
Minimum capacity per extinguisher: 5A/34B
b)
Combined minimum capacity of extinguishers: 10A/68B
- When the boat is in service, it must be equipped as described. See plans.
WARNING
- Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers must only be placed in living areas where flammable liquids are
present (eg. in the galley) or which contain live electrical equipment.
-
There should be only one CO₂ extinguisher per risk zone, and its maximum capacity m
ust not exceed
2 kg.
- Only compatible replacement parts must be used for the fire-fighting systems. They must conform
to the same standards and be technically equivalent
- If a CO
2
extinguisher is installed, the following information should be placed close by:
“This fire extinguisher contains CO₂
- It is to be used only to fight fires of electrical origin or galley
fires. To avoid danger of asphyxiation after discharging the extinguisher, immediately leave the
area, returning only after it has been
ventilated.”
- After a fire has been extinguished, do not open the engine compartment immediately, so as to
avoid release of any toxic fumes or anything which may still be alight (oil, for example).
WARNING
- Your Bali CATSPACE is fitted with fire detectors. Refer to the user manual supplied with the
detectors for information concerning their operation and maintenance.
