Halocarbon extinguishing systems

Control stations are the focal point to ensure permanent safety checks. These control stations are often located in small to medium-sized rooms equipped with monitors and other technical equipment for visual supervision, e.g. with Minimax Inveron.

• Technical defects, such as short circuits
• Overheating of computers or other electronic devices

Control stations can be integrated into an existing sprinkler system for building protection. To provide additional protection for electric and electronic devices, the risk of accidental triggering of the sprinkler systems is reduced through the use of Preaction sprinklers. 

Control rooms are very sensitive and high-quality facilities which control fundamental production processes. They contain electric switching and control equipment plus false floors with extensive cabling. Even minor defects may cause substantial operational failures.

• Short circuits
• Highly flammable materials

Oxeo inert gas extinguishing systems offer reliable protection in control rooms. For smaller control rooms, MX 1230 extinguishing systems offer an economical alternative. The extinguishing system is triggered by a fire detection system using punctiform smoke detectors or HELIOS AMX5000 aspirating smoke detectors.

Server rooms are important, sensitive areas. In these rooms, data of high importance for business operations is stored, managed and exchanged over the network. The irretrievable loss of this data through a fire may have considerable economic consequences for productivity or even the future of a company.

• Overheating of technical equipment
• Defects such as short circuits
• Considerable damage even in the case of small fires

For small and medium-sized server rooms, the MX 1230 extinguishing system is the ideal solution. It gives residue-free extinguishing using the innovative FK 5-1-12 extinguishing agents and requires very little space. Oxeo inert gas extinguishing systems are ideal for large server rooms. The MX 1230 extinguishing system and Oxeo inert gas extinguishing systems are triggered, and fires are detected, by a fire detection system using a HELIOS AMX5000 smoke aspirating system.

HVACR rooms are an absolute key area for the proper operation of a building. In addition to switching and control systems for the elevator system, they house safety-relevant HVACR systems, such as overpressure control, that keep the escape routes smoke-free in the event of fire. The facilities are particularly sensitive and must function without interruption - only then can the operation be maintained without problems on all floors of the building.

• Overheated ventilators, compressors and cooling units
• Short circuits on electronic components

In case of particularly high availability requirements, e.g. for the switching and control system of the elevator system, residue-free extinguishing with Oxeo extinguishing systems or MX 1230 fire extinguishing systems makes sense. A fire detection system using the HELIOS AMX5000 smoke aspirating system triggers the extinguishing system.

Alternatively HVACR rooms can be integrated into the overall building protection through sprinkler systems. If necessary, the use of Preaction sprinklers makes an unintentional triggering of extinguishing system virtually impossible.
