In‑Cabinet Fire Protection Systems

Designed to protect

In-cabinet protection systems are designed to protect specific areas or equipment, such as electrical cabinets

Here’s how the system you mentioned works:

Cabinet Enclosure

The system protects a specific cabinet or enclosure

Flex Tube Distribution

The flex tube is used to distribute the suppression agent (like Novec 1230 or HFC-227ea) within the cabinet

15 Bar Pressure

The system operates at a pressure of 15 bar, which is relatively low compared to high-pressure systems

Agent Release

When a fire is detected, the system releases the suppression agent (Novec 1230 or HFC-227ea) through the flex tube into the cabinet

Fire Suppression

The agent quickly fills the cabinet, suppressing the fire by cooling, smothering, or interfering with the chemical reaction

Designed to protect

In-cabinet fire suppression systems work by

 Detecting fires

The system detects fires within the cabinet through heat, smoke, or flame sensors

Releasing extinguishing agent

When a fire is detected, the system releases a clean extinguishing agent, such as Novec 1230 or HFC-227ea, into the cabinet

Suppressing the fire

The agent quickly fills the cabinet, suppressing the fire by cooling, smothering, or interfering with the chemical reaction

In-cabinet systems

These systems are designed to

Protect sensitive equipment

In-cabinet systems are often used to protect electrical or electronic equipment, such as servers, control panels, or electrical cabinets

Minimize damage

By suppressing fires quickly and effectively, in-cabinet systems can help minimize damage to equipment and reduce downtime

Protect sensitive equipment

These in-cabinet protection systems are often used to protect sensitive equipment, like electrical controls or server equipment, in areas such as

Data centers

Electrical rooms

Industrial control rooms

Server rooms

Advantages

They offer advantages like

Fast response time

Effective fire suppression

Minimal disruption

The use of flex tubes allows for flexible installation and distribution of the agent within the cabinet
