Petrochemical Tanks Fire Protection

The countless variables encountered in any chemical processing plant, possible unplanned stoppages, disruptions, damaged equipment and most importantly the necessity of protection against casualties necessitate finding a security solution provider.

In chemical and petrochemical plants, the possibility of fire is a very serious risk that will affect the process, cause a stoppage and perhaps lead to loss of life and property. Any fire that may occur in your plant must be detected as quickly as possible with an automatic fire detection system and extinguished with an automatic fire extinguishing system.

In petrochemical plants, there may be situations where fire extinguishing systems are not sufficient, malfunction or cannot reach. At this stage, larger disasters that may occur during the intervention of fire crews can be minimized with passive fire protection systems.

Intumescent fire protection paints come first among passive fire protection systems. Intumescent (swelling) paints prevent the flame from reaching the body by forming a penacox (air-filled ember-like structure) in the event of a fire and protect the structure for 30, 90 or 180 minutes depending on the application thickness. These paints are easily applied with roller or spray paint machines.

Advantages of Isollat ​​05 Fire Protection Paint:
  • Provides optimum protection against fires at 1600°C.
  • Provides protection from 15 minutes to 180 minutes depending on the application thickness.
  • Can be colored. Paint can be applied on it.
  • Labor costs are low, easy to apply and short.
  • It has a service life of at least 20 years in structures without loss of performance.
  • It can be applied to any surface.
  • It is very light. It does not load the structure, vehicle or equipment on which it is applied, and provides volume savings.
