IEC 62040 defines UPS topologies:

VFD: Line-interactive; dependent on mains.

VI: Stabilizes voltage but not frequency.

VFI: Double-conversion online; fully isolates output from mains fluctuations.

Data centers require continuous, clean, and stable power. VFI is the only topology that protects against both voltage and frequency disturbances, meeting ANSI/TIA-942 Rated-3/4 requirements.

Thus, VFI is the ideal UPS class.

Fire-rated glass must be installed within manufacturer’s tested maximum exposed area. Oversized panes risk failure under fire conditions. If the window exceeds 2 m², the correct approach is to subdivide it into smaller sections, each ≤2 m², using approved fire-rated frames.

Options B and C (silicone or aluminum splits) are not certified fire-rated framing methods. Option A is unsafe because normal glass provides no fire protection.

Therefore, option D ensures compliance and safety.

When the window area exceeds the maximum exposed area specified for fire-rated glass, it is necessary to split the window into sections that comply with the fire rating requirements. This means creating smaller sections that are each within the 3 sqm/32 sqft limit and using fire-rated frames to ensure that the entire assembly meets fire safety standards. This approach maintains the fire-rated integrity of the glass, while allowing for larger window areas.

Detailed Explanation:

Fire-rated glass is designed to contain fire and prevent it from spreading. If the window exceeds the maximum exposed area defined by the supplier, the integrity of the fire-rated glass could be compromised. By dividing the window into compliant sections with fire-rated frames, you ensure that each pane performs as intended in the event of a fire. Fire-rated frames help maintain the fire resistance across the entire assembly, making this option the best for safety and compliance.

EPI Data Center Specialist References:

EPI recommends adhering strictly to fire safety standards, especially when using materials like fire-rated glass. The guidelines emphasize that modifications should always respect the manufacturer’s specifications to ensure the system remains effective in containing and preventing the spread of fire.
