Loss of computer systems is a serious threat to business continuity and therefore for your business operations. Sprinkler systems cannot protect such equipment against fire. Therefore, gaseous fire extinguishing systems are often used to warrant business continuity but also from an insurers perspective. A gaseous fire extinguishing system could also be installed in the context of the PGS 15 directive.
Gaseous fire extinguishing systems can use inert gases or chemical gaseous agents. A fire alarm system usually actuates a gaseous fire extinguishing system. It is important that gaseous fire extinguishing system and fire alarm system are specifically designed for the applicable fire risk and environmental factors.
