Have you ever seen the results of the testing of a Halon fire
suppression system? Carolina Power and Light was testing their new data
center in Raliegh, NC and their insurance company wanted to make sure
that the Halon system worked. So with the Data Center empty of people
and equipment they fired off the halon system. It looked like a war zone
afterwards. Most of the heads on the pipes came flying and became
missiles. Floor tiles were dented, walls had big holes in them and the
whole place was a mess.

But... did it put out the fire????

?;^ Q


They didn't have a test fire, they just wanted to make sure that when
you hit the button that the tanks would empty and and the Halon would
come out of the ends of the pips.
