  • Patent number: 7895855
    Abstract: A containment system includes a control unit comprising a cooling system and a control panel in communication with the cooling system. The containment system also includes a containment unit in communication with the control unit for containing a plurality of electronic components. The containment unit includes a base including a damper, a plurality of sidewalls extending upwardly from the base, and a top overlying the base and having a passageway formed area. The base, the plurality of sidewalls and the top define a containment area there between for containing the plurality of electronic components. Cold air is passed from the cooling system to the base of the containment unit through the damper and into the containment area. Warm air is removed from the containment area through the passageway formed in the top thereof and back to the cooling system.

  • Publication number: 20090211773
    Abstract: A fire suppression system includes a fire panel carried by a control unit of a containment system. The fire suppression system also includes a suppression agent containment device in communication with the fire panel. The control unit is in communication with a containment unit for containing an electronic component. The containment unit includes a containment area and a damper for allowing air flow into the containment center through a vent. A suppression agent containment device is in fluid communication with the damper to discharge the suppression agent into the containment area responsive to a signal received from the fire panel.
