This episode explains fire suppression methods used in server environments to protect equipment while minimizing collateral damage. We review clean agent systems such as FM-200 and inert gas solutions, which extinguish fires without harming electronics, as well as pre-action sprinkler systems designed to avoid accidental water discharge. The discussion also includes detection systems that trigger suppression before flames spread, such as VESDA (Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus).

Practical and exam examples cover choosing suppression systems based on room size, airflow, and regulatory requirements. We also address maintenance tasks like inspecting cylinders, verifying system pressure, and testing detection sensors. Understanding these technologies enables candidates to design and manage fire suppression strategies that protect critical assets and ensure operational continuity.
