NANO
MARINE
SYSTEM
In addition to the NANO intended for land-based installations, a NANO version is available
with a DNV-CG Type Approval in accordance with the 0339 standard. This NMS consists of
three components. The basis is formed by the NCP which is placed on the bridge or in its
vicinity. Then there are two extinguisher terminal boxes (NETB). The NETB must be
placed outside, but in the immediate vicinity of the to protected room. One suitable
for connecting up to 5 extinguishers the other for 10 extinguishers. From the NETB a
cable led to the KVB plug & play Stat-X extinguisher installed in the
volume to protected. Similar to the front of the NCP, the front of
the NETB features two double-acting buttons for extinguisher
release. When a fire emerges, press both yellow extinguishing release
pushbuttons, this will trigger an alarm on the NCP. The fire extinguishers will be
released, depending on the PDS (time) settings. The cable connection between the
NCP and the fire extinguisher connection box is continuously scanned for faults,
such as short circuits or cable breaks. From the NETB, each cable to the fire extinguishers is
individually and constantly monitored for fault or malfunction. In a marine application, it is NOT
common that a fire suppression system intended for room
protection is released by an automatic fire detector. However,
the has two fire zones suitable for connecting Marine approved
Apollo Orbis fire detectors. The NMS can be set up that fire
alarms from these fire detectors, signalized on the NCP,
considered as informative only. They
don’t
have effect on the
extinguishing system, nor activate the extinguishing system. By
default, the NMS is set to only manual release but can be changed to automatic & manual mode.
