Fire extinguishing waters retention | Water-Gate©
Emergency containment of polluted liquids

Create a containment dam in record time | Deviate to a neutral zone: chemical pollution, contaminated liquids. A light and flexible solution that fits all types of sites with no anchorage, whatever the surface (concrete, tarmac, earth, rubble, etc.) and relief (slopes, edges, obstacles, etc.). The Water-Gate© retention dam can be installed when the spill is already underway!

4 steps for a FIREWATER retention device

1. RETENTION VOLUME

Calculation of the volume to be retained

D9A standard fire water retention

2. SITE AUDIT

Evaluation of retention possibilities (building, pipelines, topography)

fire water retention audit

3. SIZING

Optimised device: regulatory constraints, storage, implementation

sizing of fire water retention

4. DEPLOYMENT TRAINING

Onsite training of operational teams with video reporting

training in the retention of fire water

Emergency containment: case study

Water-Gate© flexible dams make it possible to contain considerable volumes of polluted liquids in record time.

For the retention of fire water, we favor remote retention by gravity flow. This facilitates emergency response, avoids flooding all buildings and reduces exposure to risk during installation. Please note that the devices are not 100% waterproof, you must plan to collect leaking water.

Options

SUPPLEMENTARY PRODUCTS

Improve the sealing of the dam. Various product solutions depending on chemical risk.

Semi-permanent low-rise containment. Helps block or divert accidental chemical spills.

Flexible sticky polyurethane plates for emergency sealing of small openings (drainage grid, buffer, door bottom)

There is no effective surface protection without flood risk control by underground networks. MegaSecur.Europe studies the networks of the site to be protected and provides a solution adapted to each situation.

No mobile flood protection system is completely watertight. We provide pumping solutions to collect leaking water and discharge it beyond the dam: self-priming motor pumps or puddle pumps coupled to generators.
