Fire suppressant disclaimer

Fire prevention equipment in the computer room should always be installed as an added safety measure. A fire suppression system is the responsibility of the customer. When selecting appropriate fire suppression equipment and agents for the data center, choose carefully. An insurance underwriter, local fire marshal, and local building inspector are all parties that you should consult during the selection of a fire suppression system that provides the correct level of coverage and protection.

Equipment is designed and manufactured to internal and external standards that require certain environments for reliable operation. Compatibility claims and recommendations on fire suppression systems are not provided through Dell. It is not recommended to position storage equipment directly in the path of high-pressure gas discharge streams or loud fire sirens to minimize the forces and vibration adverse to system integrity.
