Intelligent Fire Protection For Marine Operations

Advanced Protection for
Complex Marine Fire Risks

Shipyards and marine repair facilities face some of the harshest fire risks anywhere. Heavy equipment, flammable materials, and constant hot work create conditions where a single spark or fuel hazard can escalate rapidly. Fire Rover adapts to these unique demands with 24/7 detection, human verification, and targeted suppression that keeps vessels, crews, and facilities safe — delivering protection where traditional systems fall short.

1

Welding And Hot Work

Cutting, grinding, and welding produce sparks, slag, and molten metal that can ignite surrounding materials within seconds.

2

Confined Spaces

Ship holds, engine rooms, and other tight compartments concentrate flammable materials and vapors, making fires harder to detect and suppress.

3

Delayed Response

Complex layouts and large vessels slow fire response times, allowing small ignitions to escalate before crews can react.

4

Fuel and Oil Residues

Residual oils, vapors, and solvents from repair work create highly flammable conditions that demand continuous monitoring.

5

Stored Materials

Timber, insulation, and other construction or repair supplies can accelerate fire spread if not contained quickly.

6

Equipment Fires

Cranes, lifts, and heavy machinery carry constant ignition risks from hydraulic leaks, hot engines, or electrical faults.

Outsmart Fire With Real-Time Response

Faster Detection,
Smarter Response

Fire Rover detects incipient fires before they escalate using thermal imaging, flame, and smoke analytics—then confirms threats through 24/7 live human monitoring to prevent false alarms and initiate real-time suppression.

Fire Incident

Fire Rover catches fires within 7 seconds

Pre-Incipient Stage

Invisible to the eye — heat buildup begins before smoke or flame

Incipient Stage

The very first visible signs of fire — often seconds from spreading

Smoldering Stage

Smoke develops as materials heat; just 30 seconds from open flame

Flame Stage

Ignition is visible and spreading; suppression is now critical

Fire Stage

Active fire growth threatens equipment, property, and safety

Major Fire Incident

Uncontrolled fire requiring full emergency response

Industries We Protect
Every Day

Fire Rover is trusted in environments where fire risk is highest — from combustible waste piles to open storage yards. Our systems are designed for industries that face daily fire hazards, providing early detection and rapid response that keeps people safe, facilities secure, and operations running smoothly.

Landfills

Open air, shifting materials, and limited infrastructure make landfills especially vulnerable to incipient fires. Fire Rover provides rapid mobile detection with 24/7 thermal monitoring and video-verified alerting — delivering protection where permanent systems can’t reach.
