NextDC A1 – Combined Electric Fire Pump System Installation in Adelaide, South Australia

Project Overview

BKB Group Australia was engaged to deliver a robust, high-efficiency fire protection solution for a large-scale commercial data centre facility in Adelaide, South Australia. This project involved the design, manufacturing, and commissioning of a combined sprinkler and hydrant fire pump system, built to support the mission-critical infrastructure requirements of a tier-one data environment.

The system features double electric fire pumps, providing both primary and backup capability to ensure uninterrupted operation and compliance with AS2941 fire protection standards. Designed to serve both sprinkler and hydrant applications, this configuration delivers enhanced fire coverage and improved water flow efficiency for high-risk assets.

As a critical facility that operates 24/7, the fire system installation at NextDC A1 required precision, reliability, and adherence to strict performance benchmarks. BKB Group’s in-house engineering and manufacturing teams worked closely with fire protection specialists to ensure the solution was tailored to site-specific needs while meeting national safety regulations.

This project exemplifies BKB Group’s expertise in delivering custom fire pump systems for high-security commercial environments, with a focus on safety, system redundancy, and long-term operational reliability.
