Preventative Technical Fire Safety in Data Centers
The primary task of technical equipment in data centers is to ensure maximum availability of data. Fire safety plays a major role in this context. The figures cited in the manual “Designing and Operating IT Rooms and Data Centers” [1] are eye-opening: If a company’s data center is destroyed by fire, the very existence of the business is at stake. 70 percent of all affected businesses are forced to shut down. Only 23 percent are fully operational again after one year. Minimizing the risk of fire damage is therefore a top priority. Early detection of incipient fires and swift initiation of countermeasures are critical basic requirements for maximum system availability.
Early Fire Detection Is Crucial
The risks of fire and explosion in the food and beverage industry are often underestimated. Especially in this sector, however, minor fires can cause significant material and consequential losses. But process interruptions caused by false alarms are also costly. The best remedy is detection as early and as reliably as possible using innovative, false alarm-proof fire alarms.
