Fire Fighting
Advanced Fire Protection for Underground & Elevated Transit
Metro fire protection systems are typically integrated with hydrant networks, automatic sprinkler systems, hose reels, and in some cases, foam-based suppression systems for specialized areas. Pumps must be capable of delivering consistent performance under emergency conditions, including voltage fluctuations or complete power failure.
In India, metro rail projects are governed by stringent fire safety norms and National Building Code (NBC) guidelines, along with metro rail safety regulations. Fire pumps are designed for emergency-duty operation, with heavy-duty motors, corrosion-resistant construction, and reliable control panels to ensure operational readiness at all times. Redundancy is a critical requirement in metro infrastructure. Standby pumps, jockey pumps, and diesel engine-driven backup systems ensure uninterrupted water supply even during grid power disruptions. This layered protection approach enhances passenger safety and safeguards critical transit infrastructure.
