HVAC & Fire Safety Systems

Discipline Overview

Industrial Climate Control, Positive Pressurization & Active Fire Defense

Industrial heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) and active fire protection systems are mission-critical for personnel safety, toxic gas containment, and sensitive electrical switchgear reliability. COREX Engineering provides complete MEP and safety engineering for control rooms, substations, laboratory complexes, and hazardous processing units.

Our solutions conform to strict NFPA, OISD, and ASHRAE standards, ensuring reliable positive pressurization against hydrocarbon vapor ingress and fast-acting automatic fire suppression.

Key Technical Deliverables

Control Room Positive Pressurization

Hazardous area positive pressure ventilation designs to prevent hydrocarbon gas entry into MCC and control rooms per NFPA 496.

Heat Load Calculations (Carrier HAP)

Cooling and heating load calculations factoring solar heat gain, building envelope conductivity, and electrical equipment dissipation.

Fire Water Ring Main Hydraulics

Underground fire water network calculations, hydrant coverage diagrams, monitor placement, and fire water storage tank sizing.

Deluge Spray & Foam Systems

High and medium-velocity water spray systems for spherical hydrocarbon vessels, transformer bays, and hydrocarbon pump skids.

Clean Agent Gas Suppression (NFPA 2001)

FM-200, Novec 1230, and Inergen total flooding systems engineered for server rooms, DCS cabinets, and battery storage rooms.

Fire & Gas Detection Layouts (F&G)

Optical flame detectors, point and open-path hydrocarbon gas detectors, toxic H2S sensors, and manual call point locations.
