Data Center Fire Suppression

Clean, Passive, and Always Ready

Data Center Fire Suppression

Modern data centers face an invisible but constant risk — fire ignition inside server racks, PDUs, or IT cabinets. Traditional systems like gas suppression or sprinklers were not designed for today’s compact, high-density enclosures. They react too late, damage sensitive electronics, and require costly maintenance and downtime.

FireXNull’s passive fire suppression systems offer a smarter alternative. Our FXN Stickers, Ropes, and Tapes protect each rack or cabinet directly — activating instantly at the heat source, without electricity, sensors, or pressure systems.

The Problem with Conventional Fire Suppression Systems

1. Gas Suppression Systems: Delayed and Expensive

Gas-based systems such as FM-200 or Novec 1230 are designed to protect entire rooms. However:

  • Fires often start inside a rack or PDU, long before gas reaches the ignition point.

  • The system requires sealed rooms, pressure testing, and costly refills after discharge.

  • Even minor incidents lead to complete data center shutdown and downtime losses.

In short — gas systems react too broadly and too late for modern rack-level risks.

2. Sprinklers: Water and Electronics Don’t Mix

Sprinkler systems provide building-level protection, not equipment-level safety.

  • They trigger only after high heat detection, when the fire is already spreading.

  • The resulting water damage can destroy servers and wiring instantly.

  • Post-event cleanup and downtime can take days or weeks.

Water is effective for structures — but devastating for electronics.

3. Maintenance and Reliability Issues

Both gas and water-based systems rely on:

  • Pressure cylinders that can leak over time

  • Power and sensors that require calibration and testing

  • Service contracts that drive up long-term operating costs

This leaves many facilities with inactive or partially functioning systems — until it’s too late.
