CMI - Central de Motores de Incêndio

Portuguese to English Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial
This is the name of a room at a Petrochemical company.
The room contains pumps and control panels.
The best I have come up with is "fire equipment room" or just "fire center" as it's definitely not about "fire engines".
