Fire Detection and Suppression:
• Data centre areas are fitted with a fully addressable two stage fire detection system that monitors both under-floor and the room itself
• Detectors with a 50% mix of optical and ionisation are split across 2 separate zonal-loops, to meet BS 5839, 6266, 5445 and 5588
• Very Early Smoke Detection alarms (VESDA) installed throughout the facility
• Dry sprinkler fire detection system to meet BS 5306, 3115 and with LFEPA approval. (Dry sprinkler is the main fire suppression method employed.)
• The systems are designed to minimise any possible customer disruption and to ensure that any minor problems remain localised
