Sinorix Compact ‒
easy, unique, all-in-one fire safety
Complete fire safety system ‒ combining fire detection, extinguishing,
alarming and control ‒ for the protection of electronic equipment
Sinorix Compact is a fire safety
system compliant with EN standards
that combines fire detection,
extinguishing and control in one
compact package.
Aimed at the growing IT industry
Data centers are at the heart of the
modern business world and among the
fastest growing markets worldwide. It is
essential that they have reliable fire pro-
tection because the business continuity
of many companies depends on their
stored data and knowledge.
Mastering electrical risks of fire
Data centers usually have a complex
infrastructure with a high risk of fire
because they contain a vast amount of
electronic and electrical equipment. The
hardware and cabling pose a continuous
threat of potential ignition. The numer-
ous plastic components provide plenty
of sources of combustible material. In
these environments, early fire detection
and reliable extinguishing is crucial.
Answers for infrastructure and cities.

The inner values
Sinorix Compact offers all you need for
comprehensive fire protection in one
compact cabinet: an aspirating smoke
detector, a Sinorix Silent Nozzle, an alarm
device and a flashing signal lamp ‒ all
developed and engineered by Siemens ‒
as well as a 3M™ Novec™ 1230 Fire
Protection Fluid cylinder. All devices are
prewired to an XC10 fire detection and
extinguishing control panel. An additional
nozzle can be easily connected to protect
the false floor.
Fast and reliable detection
The aspirating smoke detector from
Siemens draws air samples from the room,
measures the size and concentration of
the airborne particles and classifies them.
This ensures very early and highly reliable
fire detection in areas where high detection
sensitivity is essential.
Quiet and safe extinguishing
Sinorix Silent Nozzle keeps the noise
during the extinguishing process below
the level that has been found to pose a
