During operations, there is an excessive heat build-up that goes undetected through:
- No detector or alarm
- Detector not adequate – cannot detect excessive heat situation
- Detector or alarm failure
- Detector or alarm overridden or quietened (allowing it to be ignored)
Credible Failure mode is addressed by:
- BI-01.43 Required system health checks before mobile equipment operation – information for operator by vehicle type specifying: access and escape, alarms, fire suppression, auto shutdowns and other relevant protective systems
- BI-02.09 Regular checking and maintenance of alarms and monitors
- BI-02.31 Operator prestart checks include brakes, steering, tyres and running gear
- BI-02A.80 System that monitors thermal digital fingerprint
- BI-05.06 Regular monitoring of equipment status that predicts fires, alarms on equipment, and notifies
