Darshield Engineered Fire Protection Enclosures

Fire and explosion is a major cause of concern to refinery, gas processing, petro-chemical and offshore installations. Danger and damage from fire can be minimised by the efficient and effective protection of the systems which control the plant.

Darshield engineered enclosures can provide this protection because;

The enclosures are both easy to handle yet robust enough to withstand the effects of repeated exposure to minor fires, often in a hostile environment that requires frequent in-service removal and replacement.

The versatility of the Darshield system enables a variety of materials to be selected in order to best meet the customer specification. This ensures that the design can accommodate difficulties in location and space restrictions.

Special features can be incorporated to give direct access to the protected equipment even under these constraints.

Darchem Engineering has extensive experience in carrying out surveys of plant under site conditions to ensure precise fit. The company also offers full installation and back up services world wide.

Darshield is the ultimate durable solution for the protection of valves, actuators, junction boxes, control units, air reservoirs, vessels and pipework.

Darshield enclosures are constructed using high thermal performance materials encapsulated within stainless steel skins. Thermal performance is predicted by fully approved computer modelling techniques.

Independent tests have been carried out on Darshield enclosures which confirm their ability to:

The Darshield system has been approved by Lloyds, Det Norske Veritas and other specialist authorities. These approvals have given process plant operators the confidence to specify Darshield as.an integral part of their policy to.protect plant against the effects of.fire and blast.
