- Abstract
- The following considerations are based on the results of a multitude of fire tests in the laboratory and in the field (road and railway tunnels and installations) as well as on over 20 year's experience gained in planning, building, commissioning and maintaining automatic fire detection system in such tunnels. Approximately 200 road tunnels in Europe and overseas are equipped with Cerberus automatic fire detection systems and more and more traffic by rail is relying on Cerberus protection, too, on engines, carridges, switching posts and stations, etc.
