The Risk of Fire on Businesses

0
198

Heavy vehicles, mobile plant, agricultural machinery, stationary equipment, electrical control rooms, power generation equipment and other assets represent a substantial investment for any business. Due to the often heavy demands placed on equipment performance, a significant consideration of risk for any operator today is damage to equipment or potential loss of life resulting from the ever-present risk of fire.

Wherever you have heat generation combined with potential mechanical or electrical component failure, the probability of fire is real. Consequently, consideration must be given to the costs of asset replacement and lost production. These costs are however, insignificant compared to the possible loss of life.

While there are some common causes of fire, it is worthwhile considering the options available to protect your investment in the case of such an event. The installation of a Fire Suppression System has now become an essential part of a company’s overall risk management plan in order to minimise the risk to both operator and equipment.
