Introduction
This booklet contains details of Morgan Thermal Ceramics fire insulation
systems for the fire protection of bulkheads and decks in the marine and offshore
construction industries.
Complete system details and Type Approval certification can be obtained from our
web site www.morganthermalceramics.com/firemaster or USB Systems Manual
(available on request).
For more than 30 years, FireMaster® insulation materials have provided lightweight fire
insulation for structures exposed to both cellulosic and hydrocarbon fires in cruise ships,
super-yachts, high-speed ferries, coastal defence vessels, offshore platforms and FPSO’s.
FireMaster® Marine Plus blanket
●
Insulation fibre with low biopersistence in density range 48 to 128 kg/m3
This booklet presents our new, improved, systems based on our innovative FireMaster®
Marine Plus blanket.
●
Non-Carcinogenic classification under EU regulations
The highlights of these new systems are:
●
Non-Toxic to UK Defence Standard 02-713
●
1200°C fibre. Suitable for cellulosic and hydrocarbon fire protection
●
No chemical binder - no formaldehyde emission
●
25% to 50% weight reduction compared to standard mineral wool and
similar products
●
Less weight or thickness than mineral wool
●
Lower thickness
●
Good thermal insulation for HVAC requirements
●
Good acoustic insulation
●
DNV approved constructions
● Steel
● Aluminium
● FRP
●
●
●
Lower weight designs that minimise weight contribution to structures
Improved, simpler, installation techniques leading to easier installation
Combined fire, thermal and acoustic insulation
