In this solo episode, we explore a lesser-known but increasingly relevant fire protection option for mission-critical environments: the DSPA nitrogen generator system. Designed for non-pressurized, on-demand inert gas generation, this system offers a clean, electrically safe suppression solution for data centers and battery energy storage systems (BESS).
We break down how the technology works, compare it to bottled inert gas, Novec 1230, and water mist systems, and discuss real-world considerations around:
Capital and 10-year lifecycle cost
System reliability and maintenance burden
Compliance with NFPA 75, NFPA 2001, and OSHA
Efficacy in suppressing fires in data halls and containerized BESS
If you're a risk engineer, facility manager, or part of an insurance technical team, this episode delivers actionable insights without the sales pitch.
🔧 Learn how on-site nitrogen generation could fit into your fire protection strategy—and where its limitations lie.
