FFI-RAPPORT 16/00707
Safety requirements
Implementation
Fire protection
Flame, heat and smoke detectors present in the piqlVault.
Fire suppression mechanism: an oxygen reduction suppression solution
is recommended.
Handheld extinguishers present in the piqlVault (Class A, B, C).
Water protection
Recommended location of piqlVault above basement levels in
geographical areas affected by flood risk. If not, underground locations
are recommended.
Fire suppression mechanism: an oxygen reduction suppression solution
is recommended, as unattended sprinkles could lead to flood of the film.
Seismic resistance
Building structures housing the piqlVault should comply with national
design and construction standards of seismic mitigation if geographical
zone is prone to earthquakes.
Chemical and biological
compounds
A slight positive air pressure present in the piqlVault.
No gaseous impurities present in the piqlVault.
Power redundancy
No redundancy in energy supplier, but piqlVault must be equipped with
power generators to keep environmental control systems up for at least
24 hours after main power failure.
Other influences
The piqlVault shall be separated in a dedicated room without any other
activity to keep the environment as stable and non-affected as possible.
Table 5.5
The safety requirements of the storage facilities used in the scenario development
Alarm systems and sensors are also placed at critical points. They are in place as a deterrent to
break-ins and also to alert the security personnel when set off. They also often create confusion
and stress for the person or persons setting off the alarm. Security personnel also serve as a
deterrent through their often highly visible presence. Their more important and prominent role,
of course, is to serve as additional mobile security resources when a situation arises, who are
able to adapt to situations as needed.
Piql AS has also formulated a security regime to be applied during the storage phase of the
service journey, and one which applies during production and transportation. The regime is laid
out in the same document as the safety requirements, and for the part which applies to security it
is based on the Content Delivery & Security Association (CDSA) standard ―Content Protection
& Security Standard‖ [27, 31]. In the document, Piql AS specifies the necessary requirements of
the security regime which have to be present in a storage room in order for someone to become
a certified Piql partner. The specific implementation, however, of said security regime is not
described: that is largely left up to individual Piql partner so long as it is compliant with the
requirement.
