Special features
At Canaport LNG there are demanding requirements for cross-zone public address, redundancy and system stability.
INDUSTRONIC created a detailed public address plan incorporating all the environmental factors. The high wind strength, loud ocean noise as well as the salty air and extreme temperature fluctuations (winter/summer) in particular represented a special challenge in terms of planning and the materials to be used.
