Autronica takes control

摘要

Behind modern fire extinguishing systems lie's a control system, which "knows" when to trigger the sprinklers or other systems required. Autronica developed its Integrated Safety and Emergency Management System (ISEMS), Autromaster ISEMS, which manages several systems onboard. Frode Lund, managing director, Autronica explains that the system is still evolving as new technology comes on to the market. The Autromaster ISEMS monitors the total fire detection system and provides heat and smoke detectors that have seven indication levels of smoke density plus two levels of heat readings even after alarm. This allows the system to graphically display smoke and heat spread in real time on the safety centre. The system senses the danger, controls the valves to release the water into the pipes. Autronica ISEMS covers SMS, fire dynamics simulator (FDS), emergency shutdown (ESD), DSS and interfaces for control and monitoring of the CCTV, LLL, High Voltage, Dangerous Goods, Safety Plan, Fire Doors, WT Doors, VDR, Elevators, Fire Dampers, Smoke Extraction Fans and several other systems on board. ISEMS also provides an Electronic Plotting Table and provides the crew with training modes and replay / storage functionality to make sure the crew can learn by using the system on a daily basis.
