IMPORTANT: The VESDA filter must be changed regularly to ensure accurate smoke detection readings. For more information about changing the VESDA filters, see the HP Performance Optimized Datacenter 40c G2 Maintenance and Service Guide.

(Optional) Fire suppression system

CAUTION: The POD fire suppression system is manufacturer designed, engineered, and installed to comply with national standards. However, HP does not certify that the installed fire suppression system meets all local jurisdiction requirements. Compliance with local codes is your responsibility, and includes specific local requirements for initial and periodic inspections, certifications, and maintenance.

Any additional local requirements are not covered as part of the option price or basic installation and deployment services, unless specifically included in an executed Statement of Work.

WARNING: Fire suppression agents include a pre-discharge warning and evacuating system. In the event of a fire, all protected space must be evacuated as soon as possible.

IMPORTANT: The fire suppression abort buttons that are located next to each personnel door can be pressed to interrupt the 30-second fire suppression agent release delay for an additional 30 seconds. This button interrupts the countdown, but does not reset the 30-second fire suppression agent release delay. The fire suppression agent release countdown will continue when the abort button is released until the time is exhausted and the fire suppression agent is released.

The fire suppression system contains conventional fire alarm control circuits and includes features required for single or dual-hazard suppression release applications, including a low-toxicity agent. In the event of fire suppression release, the suppression tanks must be refilled by a certified technician.

Fire system operator panel

The panel is configured by the manufacturer in accordance with the local fire marshal and fire code requirements.

The operator panel includes the following:

Alarm status LED

Trouble status LED

Input status LED

Output status LED

Acknowledge button

Alarm Silence button

System Reset button

The fire system and panel are tested by the local certified fire system supplier and witnessed and certified by the local AHJ or fire marshal.

The fire system operator panel requires regular maintenance and service. For more information on the fire system operator panel component, see the Operation and Maintenance Manual for the HP Performance Optimized Datacenter 40c G2.
