Aerosol Fire Extinguishing System for Computer and Server Rooms
Fire safety of computer and server rooms is a priority for every company to protect the data they contain. Firecom’s aerosol fire extinguishing system guarantees rapid suppression of any fires which may start, protecting electronic equipment and the space itself from any damage.
Benefits of Aerosol Fire Extinguishing Systems for Computer and Server Rooms
Economical
The savings offered by a Firecom aerosol fire extinguishing system are due to a range of factors: limited materials required for installation, reduced maintenance and coverage of large spaces with minimal amounts of extinguishing media.
Simple installation
Only simple electrical connections are required to install a Firecom system. Space requirements and obstructions are completely eliminated, since the aerosol generators are installed on the walls, without the need for other dedicated spaces.
Aerosol fire extinguishing generators do not need extraordinary maintenance: a six-monthly visual inspection and check of the electrical components is sufficient. Firecom generators have a tested service life of 15 years.
Protection for assets and the environment
Firecom’s aerosol fire extinguishing system includes a system for protection of physical assets, which is installed inside a server rack or electrical panel: rapid detection and effective suppression of fires guarantees protection from damage.
The safety of the Firecom system is ideal for plant rooms containing electronic equipment: it is non-toxic and non-corrosive, it is not pressurised and does not affect the oxygen levels.
In the specific case of electrical panels, Firecom has also designed STAND ALONE extinguishing systems which do not require electrical connections to the control panel, but operate automatically via a temperature sensor.
Causes of Fires in Computer and Server Rooms
The most common causes of fires in computer and server rooms involve:
- Overheating of internal components
- Short circuits deriving from direct contact between two points of the circuit with different voltages
- The electrical overload which can be created when the current in the circuit exceeds the maximum capacity of the system
- Malfunctions in cooling systems
- Human error, such as misuse of equipment of lack of maintenance
Inspections and maintenance help prevent fires in the computer and server rooms, but to obtain the highest level of protection it is important to choose the fire suppression system which is the most suitable and capable of ensuring safety of people, assets and the environment.
