DESCRIPTION:image credit A&F Sprinklers \n\nIncident; Fire involving aluminium extrusion machinery\nWhen; 26 October 2022\nTime of incident: 14:00\nWhere\, Derbyshire\nUse of premises; Industrial\nFixed installation; Automatic fire suppression system (AFSS)\n\nA&F Sprinklers have reported the above-mentioned incident resulting in the activation of the premises sprinkler system \nBackground \n\n Aluminium extrusion is widely used in construction\, automobile and aircraft sector\, industrial machinery\, and consumer goods. Since the extrusion process is a thermal process there are many sources of ignition.\n\nThe incident \n\nIt is reported that a fire occurred within the warehouse facility above the aluminium extrusion machinery activating 1x Sprinkler head which contained\, controlled\, and extinguished the fire.\nAllowing the installation to be safely isolated following the fire by the site engineer manager.\n\nBusiness Continuity Management (BCM) \n\nIn-house protocols were in place allowing the system to be reinstated following the incident with the replacement of the sprinkler head (Tyco TY5131) system recharged within 4 hours of the incident.\nEvery business is at risk of disruption from a variety of threats\, as well as fire\, these threats can include flood\, loss of power or even loss of staff. 80% of businesses (without a business continuity plan) that are exposed by a major incident either never re-open or close within 18 months. Almost 1in 5 businesses suffer disruption every year\nThe importance of BCM as a holistic approach that provides a framework for building organizational resilience protecting valuable assets from fire or can significantly mitigate the effects that a fire has upon assets to achieve business continuity clearly demonstrated following this incident.\nCareful consideration by management to understand the importance/role of fixed fire installations installed in their premises\, the outcome of which will allow potential threats to be identified and addressed.\n  \nLinks \n\nBAFSA\, Sprinkler Saves Annual Review 2021/2022
