Ceasefire Server Quick Response System (SQRS)

Servers are at the heart of data centers and large organisations. Not just for these companies but for hundreds of their clients' businesses. Keeping this in mind, the Ceasefire SQRS has been specifically built to the specifications of a server rack. Which means it concentrates on protecting the server itself, rather than the macro environment around it.

It is designed to protect the server against damages due to fire and not just to stop the fire. Power of this system is in its speed of detection and activation which does not allow fire the time to grow and damage anything.

The system is installed within the micro environment of a server rack. When the detectors sense a rise in temperature above normal levels, or particles of smoke or a change in the quality of air in the contained server space, the detectors activate the system and the extinguishing agent (HFC 227ea) is discharged. As it activates, a hooter goes off, warning personnel about the fire.

All components of this system including the detectors, controls, extinguishing agent cylinders and alarm devices are packed together as one modular unit.

For high air flow server racks the system comes with a Highly Sensitive Smoke detection option. The optional IP Module gives the user the power to monitor the health of the system through web on a computer or a smart phone and receive email alerts and alarms in case of emergencies.

Classification : Works on class A, B, C fires and fires involving electrically charged devices. Effective on a wide range of flammable and combustible materials.

 

Electronics Friendly : Shown to be electrically non-conductive and is safe for electrically charged equipment, it is kinder on electronics than the majority of extinguishing agents available in the market.

 

Ozone, Environmentally Friendly:Being clean-agent this is an eco-friendly alternative to chemical and water-based extinguishing systems. As HFC 227ea already exists as a gas in the earth's atmosphere and is one of the by-products of combustion, it does not harm the Earth’s stratospheric ozone layer. Its atmospheric lifetime is minimal.

 

Superior to Other Gas Agents: HFC 227ea is superior to other gas-based extinguishing agents that have lower boiling points and tend to be corrosive.

 

High-value Risk Protection : Suitable for protection on a range of high value risks as it virtually eliminates damage to high-tech equipment, artwork and other delicate and sensitive objects.

 

No Clean-up Required After Discharge : After a discharge, the extinguishing agent can be removed by simple ventilation.

 

24-hour Protection : Automatic detection and actuation controls ensure fire protection is always ‘on’.

 

Multiple Triggers : The system can be triggered either by the manual actuation system or through the automatic detection system.

 

Speedy Deployment, Minimal Downtime : Deploys quickly reaching extinguishing levels in 10 seconds or less, stopping ordinary combustible, electrical, and flammable liquid fires before they cause significant damage. When fire is extinguished this quickly, it means less damage, lower repair costs, and an extra margin of safety for people. It also means less downtime and disruption of business.

 

Lower Storage Requirements : In applications where space is at a premium, HFC 227ea fire suppression systems are the superior choice. Stored in cylinders as a liquid and pressurised with nitrogen, saving huge amounts of storage space, HFC 227ea systems take up to seven times less storage space than systems based on CO2 and inert gases.

 

Highly Effective : Not only does HFC 227ea work in 10 seconds, it prevents re-ignition by rapidly cooling down temperatures in the surrounding area.

 

Highly Reliable : A fully assembled and 100% tested mechanical control head ensures reliable operation. A pressure gauge on the steel cylinders marks the gas levels so maintenance staff can replenish it whenever required. Protective chrome nozzle covers keep nozzles free from contamination and blockage by grease or other by-products that can inhibit the proper discharge of the extinguishing agent.

 

Globally Utilised : HFC 227ea is the only globally accepted flooding system gas and is in use in over one hundred thousand applications, in more than 70 countries.

 

Superior Quality : HFC 227ea is manufactured by DuPontTM, a 208-year old Science and Technology company that is renowned for its high-quality operations in fields such as Science and Technology in 90 countries.

 

Highly Adaptable : Existing Halon/CO2 control systems can easily be adapted for use with  (HFC 227ea).

 

Highly Flexible : Available in a variety of sizes that can be customised as per the application. Its flexible configuration and design can easily accommodate changes to the layout or expansion of the area.

 

IP Module: The optional IP Module gives the user the power to monitor the health of the system through web on a computer or a smart phone and receive email alerts and alarms in case of emergencies.
