Digital PA for an oil and gas terminal with ship-loading, storage, and operations building?
Industry: refinery | Architecture: DIGITAL
An oil terminal integrates marine, petroleum storage, and administrative functions — each with different PA requirements and hazard classifications. The BNA 8000 digital PA central exchange in the operations building manages all terminal zones. BNA 7400 flameproof horn speakers at the marine loading arm manifold and the tank farm pump house meet ATEX Zone 1 requirements for hydrocarbon atmospheres. BNA 7301 outdoor IP65 horn speakers on the jetty structure and tank bund perimeter serve the safe-area outdoor zones with weather-resistant audio. BNA 8200 field call stations at the jetty marine coordinator's cabin and the tank farm control cabin enable local emergency paging to the operations room. BNA 8100 master station at the terminal manager's office handles ship-arrival safety briefing broadcasts and emergency station muster alerts. BNA 500W amplifiers with long-run line driver capability ensure clean audio signal over cable distances of 500m+.
