Specialist Electrical, Mechanical, Fire Detection & Suppression Systems for Rail & The Construction Industry

Our team was responsible for the design, installation, testing, and commissioning of advanced fire detection and suppression systems at LUL Bank Station.

The scope of works included: Design, supply, install, test and commissioning of a new Fire Alarm and Detection system for the Whole Block, Northern Line Platform Level, Central Line Link and DLR Platforms. Four Networked, 4 loop Node Panels, 490 devices. Swithlands Concept Design developed to Construction Stage. New System successfully integrated in to existing Station Fire Alarm System to form a ten Networked Node Panel System. Value Engineering–Proposed and implemented the replacement of existing, obsolete Kentec Syncro Panels with AELMxPro5 Panels during the project.

As part of the Escalator Replacement Project, the existing life expired Linear Heat Detection system and Escalator Water Suppression System (EWSS) were replaced.

Lynch designed, installed tested and commissioned a new multi-sensor point detection system within the Upper & Lower machine pits to replace the Linear Heat Detection system along with new conventional wet sprinkler system to replace the EWSS system on Escalators 1&2 and 3&4.

Our team was responsible for design and installation of new vent shaft Electrical, PAVA & Fire Detection fit out, FIRE ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL, new MEP and Comms services.

The services that have been requested to extend/provide into the new vent access shaft are:

(LU) LV power. Communications PAVA. Radio coverage. Fire detection/alarm. Lighting/emergency lighting. Extend the dry dropper up to new ground level.

Lynch IEI has been appointed as a Principle contractor to carry out full design and install to new Western Station Entrance.

This included:

Design and installation of primary CRMS throughout station for all services (electrical, comms and fire). Design and installation of secondary CRMS. Design and installation of new lighting system. Design and installation of new Fire detection and suppression system. Design and installation HVAC system including fire dampers. Installation of new above ground drainage. Installation of new PAVA and CCTV systems. Installation of new MICA system. Migration of Station operation room to new location. Complete premises fit out.

Lynch IEI proudly took part in BBC SOS program and donated electrical equipment and services to help fit-out new Grenfell Tower Boxing Club – a vital project aimed at healing and rebuilding after the tragic events of the Grenfell Tower fire.

Lynch IEI successfully delivered a comprehensive fire detection system upgrade at Old Street Station as part of a wider initiative to enhance passenger safety and ensure compliance with updated London Underground standards.

The scope of work included:

Design, supply, install, test and commissioning of a new Fire Alarm and Detection system. Three Networked 4 loop Node Panels, 270 devices. WSP Concept Design developed to Construction Stage. Fire Alarm design was 3D BIM modelled–increased collaboration, co-ordination and visualization. New System successfully integrated in to existing Station Fire Alarm System to form a 5 Networked Node Panel System. Commissioning & Integration. Plan was developed to provide assurance that the system can be integrated without delay and operational inconvenience to public/passengers. Flexibility to changes in design due to issues with the existing structure and changing stake holder requirement.

Lynch IEI has been appointed as a sub-contractor to carry out electrical, mechanical and comms fit out.

This included:

Installation of primary CRMS throughout station for all services (electrical, comms and fire). Installation of secondary CRMS. Installation and design of new lighting DALI system. Installation of new OLBI supply. Installation of new HVAC system including fire dampers. Installation of new above ground drainage. Installation of new PAVA and CCTV systems. Installation of new MICA system.

The biggest challenge to the project was integration with existing stations systems while station was sill operational and open to the public at its full capacit.

Lynch IEI has delivered laser scanning of the West One building and modelled existing MEP services. The main challenge was the amount of dead and live services. MEP services were surveyed and  Tag & Trace reports produced.
