Kooperationspartner Heat GmbH
As a result of a cooperation agreement with
the company Heat GmbH, the Dräger Safety
Academy has been able to add another site
in Düsseldorf to its existing range of offensive
indoorr firefighting.
The Academy's customers already include
part of the local heavy industry, as well as
airports in the near vicinity. The gallery in
which the seminars take place comprises
a number of containers set up in a row.
Its size means that several crews can train
in the gallery at the same time.
The seminars focus on themes such as the
deployment of thermal imaging cameras
(TIC), search and rescue operations in
smoke-filled rooms, fighting of fires and
flashovers inside buildings, and fire fighting on board ship. For some of the participants,
even visor panes fogged up by condensation
can pose quite a challenge. The
contents of the seminars can be adapted
to individual customer requirements; for
example, the stationary training gallery
can be used for certain types of training
in conjunction with the proven mobile fire
simulation system, the Fire Dragon. |

Adaptation of the fleet of Fire Dragon
mobile fire simulation systems
Drawing on its experience in high temperature
training and its successful projects in
the German states of Hesse and Bavaria,
the Dräger Safety Academy has redesigned
and enhanced its mobile fire simulation
systems, generating a broader scope of
training and exercises. |
|
|
|
|
|
The new Fire Dragon is an impressive piece
of equipment, not least because of its innovation,
the 30 square metres of space it
provides for training purposes, its variety of
fire types and the scope it offers for fighting
fires via the roof, a door or a window.
The latest technology and diversity of different
training scenarios ensure that the success
story of the previous systems will continue.
Another challenge provided for the
participants is an external fire where a tornoff
aeroplane engine is the object of the
training exercise. |

A further seminar in the area of high temperature
training is the "Trainer for the Gas-
Powered Fire Dragon“. This additional qualification
means the best possible preparation
for the exercises in the training galleries
and allows the training scenarios to be
tailored to the needs of the individual
participants. |

Practical seminar in Sweden
Participants are taught more about the basic
principles of high temperature training in
the practice-oriented Flashover seminar.
Training is carried out under realistic conditions
– using real fire, for example – at
one of the largest fire training academies
in Scandinavia.
In the trials and exercises, the participants
are given the chance to thoroughly practice
the different scenarios in which recognizing
and fighting the individual phases of the fire
are the primary focus. A large part of the
training is designed by the participants
themselves. |
