cSI 13 27 16 modular fire vaults & security panels

csi specification 13 27 16 modular fire vaultsCSI 13 27 16 modular fire vaults and 13 27 53 spun ceramic security vault panels provide a safer, more affordable, and completely reconfigurable alternative to concrete vaults that are designed specifically to protect digital records and other sensitive media.

Why modular fire vaults instead of concrete vaults? Consider the fact that many companies now create 93% of their documents digitally, with only 30% ever committed to paper. While concrete vaults were sufficient for paper records, they could cause the destruction of your sensitive digital media in the event of a fire. In a fire, temperatures in a concrete vault can quickly raise to 212°F with a relative humidity of 100% due to escaping steam—most digital media is damaged or destroyed at temperatures greater than 125° and relative humidity above 80%. On top of that, concrete is prone to moisture-related problems such as mold and mildew. The 13 27 53 spun ceramic security vault panels eliminate all of these issues, making them ideal for use in banks, financial facilities and government facilities, historical archive preservation, protecting server rooms, and much more.
