Embodiment Construction

[0052] Applications mentioned in the section entitled "Cross-Reference to Related Applications" are hereby incorporated by reference.

[0053] figure 1 A first embodiment of the invention is illustrated. Operable digital data storage device 10 is placed inside enclosure 20 having bottom wall 21 , top wall 22 and side walls 23 and 24 . Each of the walls 21-24 is made of gypsum or concrete (both are water based fire barriers) as these materials are not only good of water. In the event of a fire, the water separates from the plaster or concrete and when it turns into steam it absorbs a huge amount of heat (2260 kJ / kg for water) in the form of latent heat of vaporization. This absorption of energy helps to maintain a sufficiently low temperature inside the enclosure 20 to protect the storage device 10 and the data stored thereon.

[0054] Openings or channels 31 and 32 are formed in walls 24 and 23 respectively. Removable fire hatches 51 and 52 are located adjacent the openi...

Abstract

A fire resistant and water resistant enclosure for an operable computer digital data storage device is provided. The enclosure has walls made of gypsum or concrete and, in one embodiment, has two small ventilation openings which remain open during normal operation of the digital data storage device and during the presence of fire In the presence of fire, air and superheated steam from inside the enclosure expand and flow outwardly through the ventilation passageways. As those gases flow outwardly, they simultaneously block or prevent the transfer of heat from the exterior fire inwardly through those passageways. A water resistant pouch or coating surrounding the storage device prevents damage from flood, water, steam generated by the insulation or smoke from passing through said passageways and damaging the storage device.
