Fire Barrier Wall For Transformer

Durasteel transformer barriers are essential in providing protection to life property and infrastructure when there is a risk from transformer failures.

Fire barrier wall for transformer.

Transformers are an integral part of electrical distribution and can explode or catch fire without warning. A fire barrier wall or a fire partition is a fire rated wall assembly that provides lower levels of protection than typically provided by a fire wall. This is a type of fire rated wall assembly. This standard for fire protection in a substation does provide specific guidance for the protection and physical isolation of transformers in the form of fire wall barriers.

High voltage transformer fire barriers or transformer firewalls transformer ballistic firewalls transformer blast walls are outdoor countermeasures against cascading failures in a national electric grid the purpose of these barriers like common fire barriers in building construction is compartmentalisation of transformer fires as well as transformer and bushing explosions where the fuel. However the wall is not self sufficient because it does not extend below the structure or through the roof meaning that fire and smoke can quickly spread through these two. Durasystems versatile line of fire barriers can be customized to suit your needs and offer protection options including fire blast ballistics and sound. The main differences are that these fire resistant walls are not structurally self sufficient.
