Fire Protection for Data Centres

Typically, a data centre is an enclosed volume featuring a subfloor area and a specialised HVAC system. The modern data centre contains more equipment and processes more critical information than ever before, making the loss of data or fire-related downtime even greater risks. These vital installations are susceptible to fires caused by overheated electronic components, faulty wiring, power surges, lightning strikes, arsonists and in today’s world, terrorists.

SUPPRESSION

Kidde ECS Series FM-200® Fire Suppression System

The Kidde ECS Series FM-200 Fire Suppression System combines rapid detection with integrated control and clean fire suppression to provide automatic 24/7 protection. High sensitivity smoke detection provides an extra margin of time to facility managers to investigate the fire event in its earliest stages and often prevent the need for the suppression system activation. It’s backed by a network of intelligent detectors and a multiprocessor-based control unit to sound alarms and trigger the release of FM-200, a clean, non-toxic, environmentally-friendly gaseous agent into the protected enclosure.

ECS-500™ with Kidde Fluoro-K Fire Suppression Agent

The Kidde ECS-500™ type Clean Agent Suppression System using Fluoro-K provides superior performance compared to standard 360 psi (25 bar) systems. The higher storage pressure of 500 psi (35 bar) enables improvement of agent travel distance for applications where ADS™ performance levels are not required. Now you have the flexibility of a mid-tier solution to meet application size, design requirements and the client’s budget.

Inert Gas Fire Suppression System

Inert gas fire suppression systems use naturally occurring gases like nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide to extinguish fires by reducing the oxygen concentration in a protected area. These systems are environmentally friendly, safe for humans, and cause minimal damage to equipment.

DETECTION

Kidde Senator HSSD® System

Laser-based high-sensitivity-smoke detection system designed to detect fire in the incipient stage. Recommended for critical facilities such as data centres. Thousands of times more sensitive than conventional detectors, the Kidde Senator employs particle size discrimination technology to reduce the occurrence of nuisance alarms. System consists of a detector head, piping network and optional LCD display module.
