Wind Turbines

FACTS AND FIGURES ON WIND TURBINES:

  • Wind turbines generate clean energy with minimal environmental impact, helping to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change.
  • Many countries have started to invest heavily on Wind Turbines because of its benefits
  • Wind Turbines are expensive assets and thererfore, fire incidents within the Wind Turbine could cause damages up to €2 million
  • Wind Turbines are often prone to catch fire due to electrical failures or mechanical malfunctions. Other risk are brakes high temperatures and lightning strikes
  • 90 % of Wind Turbine fires originate in the nacelle
  • Direct access to fire is difficult
  • Wind Turbines are hard and costly to repair, leading to long downtimes

SOLUTIONS TO PREVENT FIRE IN WIND TURBINES:

  • Unique configurations and special technologies
  • Early and automatic fire detection to stop the fire before causing irreversible damages
  • Fast and effective fire suppression

FireDETEC®: Pre-engineered detection & suppression system for wind turbines

Our FireDETEC® system for wind turbines automatically detects and suppresses fires 24/7, without the need for human intervention. It also protects your high value components of the turbines such as control cabinets, switching boxes, transformers and many more. With its low maintenance requirements, the Rotarex Firetec system is ideal for protecting your wind turbines.

INEREX®: An innovative, environmentally friendly fire protection solution

Our inert gas total flooding system is based on reducing the oxygen concentration inside the protected area as a mean to suppress the fire. The INEREX® system is environmentally friendly as it only uses natural gases without any ozone depletion potential. Don't wait any longer and protect your wind turbines from fire.

RX5112: Fire suppression system for wind turbines

FK-5-1-12 agent offers a combination of safety, low environmental impact and excellent extinguishing performance. It is an environmentally friendly fire suppression solution with low global warming potential and zero ozone depletion potential. This means it does not contribute to climate change or damage the ozone layer. The RX5112 system helps you reduce the footprint, which is very important for wind turbines.
