Fire, fishing vessel Newfoundland Lynx, 90 nautical miles northeast of St. Anthony, Newfoundland and Labrador, 29 January 2020.: TU3-12/20-0003E-PDF
"The sauna on board the Newfoundland Lynx was equipped with a heat detector set at 120 °C, yet this part of the fire detection system did not activate the vessel’s fire alarm at any point during the emergency. Instead, the chief mate had to manually activate the fire alarm and make an announcement on the vessel’s PA system. The fire detection system on board the Newfoundland Lynx was last tested and inspected in September 2019 as part of the annual survey conducted by the recognized organization. The heat detector in the sauna was destroyed in the fire, and the investigation could not determine the exact cause of the fire detection system’s failure"--Page 7.
