In the ongoing effort to ensure the safety of naval vessels and their crew, the Navy has recently deployed a temporary wireless fire alarm solution from Ramtech on a transport dock ship during maintenance and repair in dry dock. The ship, with a capacity of 800 personnel and an overall length of 684ft, required a reliable and efficient fire alarm system to protect the vessel and crew during the maintenance and repair work.

Challenges

The Navy faced several challenges when it came to installing a fire alarm system on the dock ship. Traditional wired systems are known to be expensive, difficult to maintain, and challenging to plan and manage. In addition, the ship’s environment is challenging, with a complex layout and limited access to certain areas.

The WES3 system is designed to be quick and easy to install, with a total of about 350 devices including 200 smoke sensors, 125 heat sensors, and 25 interface modules to connect into the bilge sensors.

Solution

To overcome these challenges, the Navy chose WES temporary wireless fire alarm solution, the WES3 system. The WES3 system is designed to be quick and easy to install, with a total of about 350 devices including 200 smoke sensors, 125 heat sensors, and 25 interface modules to connect into the bilge sensors. This solution also provides strong connectivity even in challenging environments with encrypted flooded mesh radio that creates a secure and reliable network.

Innovative Features

With over 160 workers daily and the intricate nature of construction sites, ensuring safety had been an enormous undertaking. The project needed a solution that could not only meet but exceed safety expectations, and that’s when they had discovered the WES3 system by Ramtech, the project had embraced this innovative technology, and a representative had made a significant impact.

Conclusion

The deployment of WES temporary wireless fire alarm solution on the transport dock ship has proven to be a success. The WES3 system is quick and easy to install, provides strong connectivity even in challenging environments, and allows for easy installation and placement of units in hard-to-reach areas. The Navy’s choice of WES’s solution has ensured the protection of the vessel and crew during maintenance and repair work.
