J-SRX210 Services Gateway Fire Safety Requirements
Services Gateway Fire Suppression Procedure and Equipment
In the event of a fire emergency involving devices and other network equipment, the
safety of people is the primary concern. Establish procedures for protecting people in
the event of a fire emergency, provide safety training, and properly provision fire-control
equipment and fire extinguishers.
In addition, establish procedures to protect your equipment in the event of a fire
emergency. Dell products should be installed in an environment suitable for electronic
equipment. We recommend that fire suppression equipment be available in the event
of a fire in the vicinity of the equipment and that all local fire, safety, and electrical codes
and ordinances be observed when installing and operating your equipment.
In the event of an electrical hazard or an electrical fire, first turn power off to the equipment
at the source. Then use a Type C fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire. Type C fire
extinguishers, which use noncorrosive fire retardants such as carbon dioxide (CO
2
) and
Halotron™, are most effective for suppressing electrical fires. Type C fire extinguishers
displace the oxygen from the point of combustion to eliminate the fire. For extinguishing
fire on or around equipment that draws air from the environment for cooling, use this
type of inert oxygen displacement extinguisher instead of an extinguisher that leave
residues on equipment.
Do not use multipurpose Type ABC chemical fire extinguishers (dry chemical fire
extinguishers) near Dell equipment. The primary ingredient in these fire extinguishers is
monoammonium phosphate, which is very sticky and difficult to clean. In addition, in
minute amounts of moisture, monoammonium phosphate can become highly corrosive
and corrodes most metals.
Any equipment in a room in which a chemical fire extinguisher has been discharged is
subject to premature failure and unreliable operation. The equipment is considered to
be irreparably damaged.
NOTE:
To keep warranties effective, do not use a dry chemical fire extinguisher to
control a fire at or near a J-SRX Series services gateway. If a dry chemical fire extinguisher
is used, the unit is no longer eligible for coverage under a service agreement.
We recommend that you dispose of any irreparably damaged equipment in an
environmentally responsible manner.
