The Challenge

Traditional fire detection systems react too late, putting vessels, cargo, and crew at risk

PCTC Car Carriers

Thousands of vehicles with combustion engines or batteries in enclosed cargo holds create extreme fire risk. Average loss: $500M+ per incident.

Delayed Response

Smoke detectors activate 10-20 minutes after ignition - often too late for effective intervention.

Hidden Threats

VOC and CO levels rise before visible fire, but conventional systems can't detect these early warning signs.

Regulatory Pressure

IMO 2025 SOLAS regulations demand advanced fire detection capabilities for maritime vessels.

How MultiSenseAI Works

Multi-sensor integration technology provides comprehensive fire threat detection

01

Multi-Sensor Detection

Advanced sensors monitor CO, CO₂, VOC, and smoke levels in real-time

02

Visual Verification

Thermal IR cameras confirm anomalies and pinpoint exact locations

03

AI Analysis

Data integration eliminates false alarms with >95% accuracy

04

Instant Alert

Bridge officers receive immediate notifications with live video feed

Sensor Technology

Industrial-grade sensors designed for harsh marine environments

Carbon Monoxide (CO)

Range:0-1000 ppm
Accuracy:±3 ppm

Detects combustion in earliest stages, BEFORE visible smoke

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)

Range:0-60000 ppb
Accuracy:±15%

Identifies fuel vapors and chemical leaks before ignition

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂)

Range:0-5000 ppm
Accuracy:±30 ppm

Confirms active combustion through correlation analysis

Smoke Detection

Type:Optical
Sensitivity:0.1-10% obs/m

Optical smoke detector for early fire detection and air quality monitoring

Thermal Imaging (IR)

Range:-10°C to +450°C
Accuracy:±2°C

Detects heat sources invisible to standard cameras

Hydrogen (H₂)

Range:0-4000 ppm
Accuracy:±5%

Detects hydrogen leaks from fuel cells and battery systems

Advanced Visual Monitoring System

Real-time video surveillance with thermal imaging and AI-powered threat detection

Live Video Streaming

Real-time video feeds accessible from bridge, shore office, or mobile devices. Officers can monitor multiple camera feeds simultaneously and respond immediately to any threats.

  • Bridge monitoring station
  • Shore office access
  • Mobile device support

Alert Integration

When gas sensors detect anomalies, cameras automatically activate and stream to bridge. Officers see live video feed alongside a map showing the fire's point of origin with visual confirmation.

  • Automatic camera activation
  • Snapshot on alert trigger
  • Video clips archived

Video Analytics

AI-powered image analysis detects smoke, flames, and unusual thermal patterns; reduces false alarms by correlating visual data with sensor readings.

  • Smoke detection AI
  • Flame recognition
  • Thermal anomaly tracking

Bridge Monitoring Station

Dedicated dashboard displays all camera feeds, sensor data, and alerts. Officers monitor entire vessel from single screen with quick response capabilities.

  • Multi-camera grid view
  • PTZ camera control
  • One-click emergency response

Recording & Playback

Continuous or event-triggered recording with 30-90 day retention. Searchable archive for incident investigation and compliance reporting.

  • 24/7 continuous recording
  • Event-triggered clips
  • Forensic playback tools

Marine Applications

Comprehensive fire protection for diverse vessel types

PCTC / Car Carriers

Monitor vehicle cargo holds with VOC detection for fuel vapors and IR imaging for EV battery thermal events

  • Early fuel vapor detection
  • Battery thermal monitoring
  • Insurance compliance

Engine Rooms

Continuous monitoring of machinery spaces for oil leaks, overheating equipment, and combustible gas accumulation

  • Oil leak detection
  • Hot spot identification
  • Ventilation monitoring

Container Ships

Multi-zone monitoring for hazardous cargo including chemicals, batteries, and temperature-sensitive goods

  • Hazmat monitoring
  • Zone-based alerts
  • Cargo verification

Tankers & LNG Carriers

Specialized gas leak detection for pump rooms and cargo tanks with explosion risk assessment

  • Gas leak detection
  • Explosion prevention
  • Gas Carrier Code compliant

Recent Maritime Fire Incidents

Major losses that could have been prevented with early detection

2022

Felicity Ace

$500M+ Total Loss

4,000 luxury vehicles lost when cargo hold fire led to vessel sinking. Delayed detection prevented effective response.

2019

Golden Ray

$200M+ Damages

4,200 vehicles lost in capsizing incident. Early warning systems could have detected developing problems.

2019

Grande America

Environmental Disaster

2,000 cars and 365 containers lost. Fire led to sinking and major ecological impact.
