Switch cabinet with a fire extinguishing system

摘要

A switch cabinet is provided for protection of servers and other highly sensitive computer devices or miscellaneous equipment. The cabinet is configured as a protection cabinet with an interior isolated from the atmosphere. The interior is continuously provided with fresh air by a ventilator. Fresh air is controlled by early detection fire sensors shortly before passing through the ventilator. When fire breaks out, the early detection fire sensors activate gas bottles filled with the noble gas argon, so that argon can be introduced into the interior to extinguish the fire once fresh air supply has been stopped, thereby ensuring early and fast extinguishing of the blaze.
