Summer times are the best times for businesses that deal in providing entertainment to the families. The summer holidays provide a big boom to the cruise ship owners as there are plenty of vacationers to cater to, plus, the waters are all nice and cool for the ship to move around freely. This is the time when the cruise ship owners earn the fattest profits in all the year. It isn’t a bad thing to be earning profits, but there would be a huge blow to the wallet if anything goes wrong with the ship at the time when it should have been perfect and safe.


You need a ship to be protected from fire at all times. Any small breakout of it and the whole ship can be burnt to cinders in no time. The Novec 1230 gas suppression system keeps the ship protected from fire from all angles. The system is designed to cover all areas of the ship and put out the flames real fast, especially the areas that are usually deserted for longer times and people don’t go in it unless it’s really important to go there. The storage areas for instance and the crew’s cabins which are usually unattended while they are on duty, once you have rented out the rooms, you can’t visit them very often to see that there is no one manhandling the stuff.

There have been many incidents when the vacationers messed with the wiring or started smoking inside their rooms. The irresponsibility causes a spark to happen or the still burning cigarettes thrown unceremoniously in the dustbin with papers inside ignite a small but deadly flame enough to leap out on the drapery or other stuff. With such an incident happening, the entire ship’s life is put on risk and if the matter isn’t taken under control at once, the damages can be too expensive to cover. If ever there is a casualty onboard a cruise ship due to such an incident, the ship is out of business for good.

The Novec 1230 gas suppression system makes sure that all such types of fires are extinguished before they become a threat even to a fly. The cylinders containing the life saving gas are attached with full pressure in them to make sure there is gas to reach every nook and cranny intended to make safe with it. The gas pressure can be easily monitored with the ultrasonic liquid level indicator to make sure no cylinder is running empty or with a low pressure. Low pressure in the cylinder is as bad as an empty cylinder.
