The complete, modular solution
Redetec protects computer racks and critical equipment from the risk of fire and subsequent downtime.
Detection
Point Type
Redetec has point type detectors for static and low airflows. Accurate and reliable, these detectors are perfect for the majority of Redetec applications.
HSSD
Designed for Redetec in high airflow computer server rack applications. Higher sensitivity smoke detection for earlier detection of fire. Well proven, extensively specified and extremely reliable.
Extinguishant
HFC227ea (FM200)
A proven and reliable chemical fire extinguishing gas with zero ozone depletion characteristics.
HFC227ea has a long and illustrious pedigree in providing safe, effective & reliable fire protection for computer room applications, without causing damage to sensitive electronic equipment. Redetec has adapted the room protection properties of HFC227ea into Redetec mounted extinguishant bottles, each capable of protecting 1.5m3 rack enclosure space. Up to two HFC227ea bottles can be mounted within each Redetec, giving 3.0m3 volume protection. Additional extinguishant protection can be mounted in further enclosures, controlled and initiated via Redetec.
FK-5-1-12
An environmentally friendly extinguishing gas with application characteristics similar to other chemical suppression gases.
Redetec uses FK-5-1-12 as an advanced Halon replacement chemical agent for fire extinguishing. FK-5-1-12 combines low toxicity with high fire extinguishing efficiency. FK-5-1-12 has zero Ozone Depletion Potential together with a global warming potential of 1 on the IPCC scale. This means that has less environmental impact than other chemical extinguishing agents available.
Control
Redetec rack enclosure and cabinet fire protection systems are designed to suit a range of applications, whether 19″ rack mounted or otherwise. Each Redetec unit comprises a complete fire detection and suppression solution, managed by our own internal controller. Designed to comply with recognised fire detection and control design standards, Redetec features include fully supervised* detection and release circuits, abort, hold, low pressure and gas released inputs and outputs.
Redetec provides fan tray power and automatic shutdown/reinstatement after release for air conditioning units (max 8A load). For more information or a discussion about your application, please contact our sales department.
