Protection of Toilet-Cells
Sustainable Solutions for Sustainable Mobility
Redundancy / multi-criteria detectors allow robustness against unintentional triggering
For areas without bord personal or video like toilet-cell, it is essential to rely on highest fire protection technology
Poor visibility also increases the risk of restroom cubicles, as they are one of the most frequently used locations for vandalism and arson. Some operators are moving not only to require mandatory fire alarm systems for restroom cubicles, but also to specify fire suppression systems specifically for these. Even if fire suppression systems are already installed in the vehicle, there is a growing trend to protect the restroom cubicles with their own systems, as the frequent incidents in the cubicles should not affect the availability of the overall system.
FAQ – Fire Protection in Toilet Cells
Is there a set of rules for proving firefighting measures in toilet cubicles?
In Italian regulations, this corresponds to the verification for compartments, but is not sufficient from FOGTEC’s point of view, which is why FOGTEC has carried out further verification tests and has also included this in an accepted verification scenario.
What are the particular challenges of fire detection in toilet cubicles?
Smokers, the use of hairspray and deodorants, but also the exhaust air ducting, depending on the functionality,
must be taken into account in a concept.Can water mist systems also be used to compensate for material certification?
Yes, FOGTEC systems have been used for compensation since 2004.
What should be taken into account in the overall concept with regard to smokers?
Appropriate signaling should alert the perpetrators that they risk interfering with operations.
