Data center fires can be catastrophic in many ways, and recovery after a fire can be very costly and time-consuming. A data center contains IT equipment used to collect, process, and store data for digital activities. These facilities house thousands of servers and cables, and due to the massive power density in the electrical equipment in server rooms, there is a high risk of equipment overheating and ignition. Data centers need fast-acting fire protection systems (water mist for data centers) to protect equipment, ensure personnel safety, and maintain business continuity.
The VID FIREKILL low-pressure water mist system provides effective and reliable fire protection for data centers and data processing facilities. The system is approved for protecting all areas of modern data centers, including server rooms, basements, technical rooms, offices, and more. The water mist system has lower water consumption than traditional sprinklers and operates at lower water pressure than high-pressure water mist systems. The VID FIREKILL system uses only drinking water as a suppressant and is safe for people and the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Water mist for data centers effectively suppresses fires without damaging sensitive electronics. The droplets are so small they leave no water residue on equipment.
The system disperses fine water mist into the space, reducing temperature and oxygen concentration, quickly suppressing the fire at an early stage.
Yes. Unlike traditional sprinklers, water mist does not damage hardware and is safe even when electronic components are exposed.
For water mist for data centers, EN 14972 is the key standard along with recommendations from server equipment manufacturers.
The price depends on room size, server layout, and availability requirements. A professional design and quote are needed.
