Fire brigade operations in Wasserburg: From false alarm to a real danger
Fire brigade operations in Wasserburg: From false alarm to a real danger
On Monday afternoon, September 2, 2024, the fire brigades Wasserburg and Bachmehring had to move out twice. The first alarm, around 2:45 p.m., turned out to be a false alarm, which initially made the use of the emergency services unnecessary. But only an hour later a serious alarm followed when a fire alarm system triggered in a company building in the "Am Burgfrieden" industrial area, which gave rise to concern.
In the study, the firefighters found that a drying machine in a production hall was responsible for strong smoke development. The respiratory protection teams immediately set out with thermal imaging cameras in order to thoroughly examine the affected area. This technique enables the emergency services to recognize heat sources that are not visible with the naked eye, and makes a decisive contribution to protecting human life and minimizing the damage.
rapid evacuation of the employees
Lucky for those present: All employees were able to leave the danger zone in good time. They had cleared the area quickly and had to wait about 30 minutes outside the hall while the fire brigade brought the situation under control. The rapid reaction of the emergency services could be prevented and the employees were able to return to their jobs.
The fire brigade Bach Mehring explained that the danger should not be underestimated by the smoke and the machines. The use of breathing apparatus for the firefighters and the ventilation of the hall after the operation were crucial measures to restore a secure working environment and exclude possible health risks.
The same fire brigades were already in use just an hour before this container fire alarm when an alarm in the storage area of another company in the industrial area on Priener Strasse strangely exposed no reason to concern. The first alarm turned out to be a false alarm, which in this piece of the commercial area a little chaos, but luckily no dangers.
Overall, this shows the importance of the timely alarm and the rapid reaction of the fire brigade. Such operations are not just routine, they are vital for the safety of the employees and the surrounding area. Thanks to the rapid action of the weirs, the danger could be banned promptly, which ultimately relieved everyone involved.
