Server rooms are utilized to serve as a data center. These server rooms are kept air conditioned in order to drive out the heat generated by the constant rapid activity of data transferring. However, if in case the air conditioners malfunction it might lead to heating up of the room and also cause a fire hazard. Owing to this factor, fire dampers are utilized to stop the oxygen supply to the room in case of fire occurrence. On account of this factor, fire dampers application segment is expected to show a moderate to high growth rate over the forecast period. In terms of volume, the fire dampers segment had a market share of 20.3% in 2016.
