Clean agent fire suppression systems (such as FM-200 or inert-gas systems) extinguish fires by displacing heat or oxygen with a non-conductive gas. Because they release gas rather than water, they minimize the risk of damaging sensitive electronic equipment found in data centers. Wet-pipe or dry-pipe sprinklers both discharge water that can harm hardware, while humidifiers regulate moisture and video cameras provide surveillance rather than fire protection. Therefore, the clean agent system is the most appropriate choice for preventing fire while avoiding water-related equipment damage.
