CeBIT 2016: Fire protection for the digital economy

Minimax is represented at the CeBIT through one of our partners CANCOM physical infrastructure GmbH from Kempten.

At Booth B43 in Hall 12 of our partner CANCOM, professionals can take a look at the Minimax fire protection solutions for the digital economy. In a mobile data center (IT container), Minimax employees from Würzburg demonstrate a fully functional MX 1230 extinguishing system with a FMZ 5000 mod 4 fire detection and extinguishing control panel. In addition, a HELIOS AMX 5001 aspirating smoke detector is installed in the container.

Also available is a OneU fire protection system, which was developed for installation in closed 19" racks. In this case, the system is mounted in a BIG IT shelter.

The OneU fire protection systems are characterized by highly sensitive fire detection and residue-free extinguishing. A high level of data availability is ensured by redundant components and an integrated emergency power supply. OneU systems offer maximum flexibility due to modular expansion capability. Conventional fire protection systems require up to three height units in the rack. Thanks to its unique installation height of only one height unit (44 mm), OneU fire protection systems, on the other hand, leave much more space for the IT components in the expensive racks. At the same time, the OneU system is equal in function, quality and reliability to systems that need more space.

OneU fire protection systems guarantee maximum availability of technical equipment even in the event of short circuits, overloading, overheating or component error causing an incipient fire. They are an ideal component for availability concepts, such as:

Server and network technology, which ensures 24/7 availability of essential company data,

production controls, which control and monitor production processes,

telecommunication installations, which ensure fault-free, smooth communication throughout the company.
