Comparative analysis on maintennace and repair cost of different types of shipboard fixed fire extinguishing system

Merchant ships could, by requirement, be fitted with any two of three different types of fixed fire extinguishing system (FFES); CO2 based, water based and foam based. Each system is quite unique and so as the maintenance and repair cost. Maintenance cost of FFES depends on ship size and type and th...

description Merchant ships could, by requirement, be fitted with any two of three different types of fixed fire extinguishing system (FFES); CO2 based, water based and foam based.
