AUTOMATIC FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS

DATA CENTRES, SERVER ROOM AND ELECTRICAL CABINETS

The critical nature of equipment in a data centre for companies means that an automatic fire suppression system is indispensable.
Important requirements for an automatic fire suppression system in a data centre are:

  • Fast and reliable detection.
  • Fast and assured suppression of the fire.
  • Prevention of re-ignition of the fire.
  • Use of extinguishing agents which do not damage sensitive equipment.

When using an automatic fire suppression system in a data centre, a patented detection pipe is able to quickly detect an incipient fire. Apart from that, it is possible to have a second detection method, such as an aspiration system, control the suppression system in parallel.

For many data centres, server rooms and switchboards, Wiejelo Equipment recommends the use of an extinguishing system with FK5 extinguishing agent. FK5 extinguishing agent is a liquid at room temperature. When extinguishing a fire, FK5 extinguishing agent extracts the heat from the flames, ending the chemical reaction so that the fire is cooled and immediately extinguished. Due to the cooling effect, the risk of flare-ups is almost non-existent. During a firefight, all unused FK5 extinguishing agent is immediately vaporized, and within 5 days it is all completely absorbed into the atmosphere.

FK5 extinguishing agent does absolutely no damage to any of the equipment in e.g. a data cabinet. Nothing must be cleaned away, washed or repaired after the fire is out.
