In the engine room of the tugboat "Yantar", the fire extinguishing system was completely replaced. Now, instead of freon, aerosol fire extinguishing is used, which provides increased simplicity and safety of use.

With the freon system, it is necessary to be in the room in case of fire to spray manually. Now everything is done automatically — a portable puck, which is enough to throw into a room with a fire, under the influence of high temperature, it opens itself and extinguishes the fire with gas
