7 ways to prevent data center fires

The data center is composed of software, hardware equipment, auxiliary infrastructure and other systems and multiple sets of products. It needs to be cleaned regularly to make more efficient use of existing facilities in the data center.

1. Early warning system

Use sensitive detection equipment in the data center. When smoke occurs in the equipment room, it can be detected in time to avoid burning the entire cabinet.

2, cold channel system

To meet the cooling needs of the data center and reduce the waste of cooling capacity, the data center uses the cold aisle system to not only improve the heat dissipation capacity of the data center, but also utilize the space of the equipment room and cabinet.

3, cooling system

In operation, the temperature of the data center equipment is preferably 22 ° C, and the floating up and down should not exceed 2 ° C. At the reference temperature, computer reliability decreases by 25% for every 10 °C increase in temperature.

4. Environmental monitoring

Real-time monitoring of fire signal dry contacts, fire engines, air conditioners, and circuit loads is required. If an abnormal phenomenon occurs, it is necessary to promptly perform alarms and processing.

5, smoke monitoring

The remote smoke monitoring system consists of three parts: the front-end equipment, the client/server APP, and the PC large screen. The user can check the running status of the smoke sensor in real time after logging in through the client APP/PC, and can also directly view the running status of the protection system on the large screen end of the mobile phone. When a smoke alarm occurs, the alarm information can be received synchronously, and the response is excluded.

6, improve cognition

Not only the information system security needs to be paid attention to, but also the operation and maintenance management of the computer room, and the maintenance of computer hardware, software and network equipment.

7, fireproof materials

When planning the data center, it is necessary to consider the insulation function of the wall and ceiling, and use fireproof materials. When there is a fire in other places, it helps to reduce and mitigate the damage of the fire.
