Bosch has integrated Telehouse Deutschland's new data center fire protection system with the existing access and intrusion control infrastructure, and has done so using its BIS building integration solution.

Bosch CPD Telehouse

Bosch Security Systems has updated the fire protection system of the data center of Telehouse Deutschland, in Frankfurt, and has installed a modular, networked solution, based on its UGM Universal Security System 2040.

Using your Building Integration System (Bis, Building Integration System), it has also integrated the new fire panel with existing bosch access control and intrusion solutions.

With a total area of 25.000 square meters, the data center managed by Telehouse Deutschland is one of the largest in the country. Many international corporations, financial service providers and cloud service providers use this CPD as a primary or backup location to ensure the uninterrupted operation of their critical IT systems.

In addition to redundant IT infrastructures, Telehouse offers an emergency power supply, which supports all cargo operations for three days, as well as complete solutions for physical security and server protection.

UGM Universal Security System 2040

The new fire protection solution includes the UGM Universal Security System 2040, highly customizable, as well as eleven concentrators that support the different areas of the building.

All systems are networked via fiber optics in a circular topology. Existing fire and spraying systems have also been connected to the UGM 2040. Additionally, more than 3.800 fire detectors and a large number of smoke suction systems, throughout the data center.

Critical detection data, as temperature, operating hours and degree of contamination, are constantly collected and stored in a database (surveillance status).

Based on this data, Telehouse can plan very precisely both the maintenance and replacement of individual detectors. Continuous analysis of disturbance variables allows rapid reaction to critical events.
The new fire protection system meets all the requirements set out in the EN54 regulation. Thanks to its modular architecture, can be adapted to changing needs as they arise.
