Data centers face complex fire risks from high energy loads, cooling airflow, and lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (ESS). A single fire event can cause catastrophic downtime, hardware destruction, and lasting brand damage.
Outdated, fragmented fire systems risk delayed detection, false alarms, and costly outages, while conventional detectors often miss smoldering fires diluted by strong airflow. To eliminate these vulnerabilities and ensure code compliance, this whitepaper delivers an integrated strategy to protect critical infrastructure and sustain uptime:
Align facility zones with EN 50600-2-5 and NFPA 75 frameworks
Use Aspirating Smoke Detection (ASD) for early battery off-gas alerts alongside silent inert gas and high-pressure water mist suppression
Centralize alarms, video, and access management via Desigo CC and Siveillance platforms
