Complete solutions for a safe clean room – with a professional partner No matter where clean rooms are being used – in healthcare, pharmaceutical industry, food & beverage or microelectronic industry – contamination by smoke and dust can interrupt production processes and thus cause excessive damage and unnecessary costs. That’s why it’s important to provide your clean room with a high level of safety.
One-stop fire safety solutions ■ Protecting people, assets and processes – protecting your business The clean room is the heart of a corporation’s production and belongs to the group of mission-critical facilities (MCFs). MCFs comprise a collection of highvalue assets, typically electronics and pharmaceuticals, which have significant monetary value. On the other hand, if the production process is disrupted, the company can suffer severely. A fire in a clean room can cause much damage up to major losses.
Integrated, automated and tailored fire safety solutions for the entire life cycle of the building Prevent Detect Respond Recover e.g. consulting, planning e.g. detection, control e.g. alarming & evacuation/ voice alarm, extinguishing e.g. recovery of system functionality, lessons learnt Life Cycle Management from consulting to services (e.g.
Object protection is in most cases the preferred solution due to the complexity of planning an extinguishing system in combination with the sophisticated air circulation concepts typical in clean rooms, often with a certain low- or overpressure that cannot be altered. Additionally, the concentration of high fire risk and the value of a specific machine makes it logical to decide for an object protection extinguishing solution. In clean rooms, the preferred extinguishing agents are generally inert gases.
