Optional components

Fire protection system

The fire protection system is a HP POD 40c G2 self-contained system, with no connection to your ECS. The fire protection system consists of 3M Novec 1230, a clean agent fire suppressant, eliminating the need for additional water to be connected to the HP POD 40c G2 in case of a fire emergency.

Humidifier

The humidifier option maintains the humidity within the HP POD 40c G2 within a set range, according to ASHRAE standards.

IMPORTANT: The humidifier is required if you want the POD to remain within ASHRAE recommended or allowable standards.

Maintaining the humidity helps to minimize static electricity within the HP POD 40c G2. Side view shown

Controlled access

The HP POD 40c G2 controlled access option adds magnetic locks and 12-digit keypads to the hot and cold aisle dynamic doors. This option enables you to provide controlled access to the hot and cold aisle without the need for keys.
