This article substantiates the choice of the most efficient and safe fire extinguishing system for a server room through a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of fire extinguishing systems. The task of the study was to analyze the main technical characteristics of gas fire extinguishing agents. The advantages and disadvantages of using each of the considered fire extinguishing systems to ensure the safety of people in cases where, for one reason or another, evacuation may not be possible are determined. In this regard, the work studied the effects of various gaseous fire extinguishing agents in the absence of ignition and in the presence of a source of ignition. To solve the problem, an informative analytical review of the rules and regulations for the operation of automatic fire extinguishing installations was carried out. The main criteria for choosing a fire extinguishing system are determined. A study of the use of various types of gases in the gas fire extinguishing system is given. The main indicators of technological efficiency are determined, including the amount of fire extinguishing agent required to extinguish the fire; number of cylinders; operating pressure. According to the results of the study of the effectiveness of automatic fire extinguishing systems and comparison of the considered fire extinguishing gases, it was found that freon FK-5-1-12 is the most suitable for extinguishing fires in server rooms
