We are very happy to announce that the data centre belonging to the “Qingdao National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology” in China will be installed with a SEM-SAFE^® high-pressure water mist fire safety system. 

“Qingdao National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology” is jointly constructed by the Ministry of Science, Shandong province and Qingdao city. It provides the premises for large innovative scientific and technological research.

Danfoss Fire Safety and LAKC partnership

The project is a result of the successful collaboration between our sales team in China and our business partner, LAKC (Lian An Ke Chuang (Beijing) fire protection technology co. LTD.).

Fire safety in data centres

Storing data is an absolute must these days and it is crucial that data centres are fully and properly equipped to handle a fire situation.
With SEM-SAFE^® high-pressure water mist from Danfoss, the fight against fire is more efficient, with the ultimate goal of saving lives, limiting equipment damage and keeping the data centre running.
