HP Performance Optimized Data Center (POD) 20cp Fire alarm indicators, Fire suppression system

Page 22

•Triggers a fire alarm signal to the BMS in the fire box (on page 67) and activates a 30-second delay before releasing the fire suppression agent

IMPORTANT: The fire suppression abort button does not delay the release of the fire suppression agent if a manual fire button is initiated. The release of the fire suppression agent is imminent and all personnel should evacuate immediately.

Fire alarm indicators

Upon activation of a fire alarm within the HP POD 20c, the following alarms alert personnel:

•Strobe light—The HP POD 20c includes two fire strobe lights. One is located in the cold aisle and one is located on the POD exterior.

•Audible horn—The HP POD 20c includes two audible horns. One is located in the cold aisle and one is located on the POD exterior.

•Alarm within the ECS—The ECS system notifies you of a fire alarm condition with an alarm alert on the ECS screen.

Fire suppression system

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.

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 jurisdictional 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.

IMPORTANT: The fire suppression abort buttons that are located on the ECS panel and next to the fire suppression cylinders can be pressed to interrupt the 60-second fire suppression agent release delay of the VESDA system. Pressing either of these buttons resets the fire suppression agent release delay to 10 seconds. Pressing and holding either of the fire suppression abort buttons stops the agent release. Releasing the fire suppression abort button that is being held gives personnel 10 seconds to evacuate before agent release. The fire suppression abort buttons do not operate if a manual fire button is activated.

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
