Fire Suppression System – StatX – First Responder

Description

The First Responder is a new and innovative tool designed to aid in the suppression of fires and for use as a personal protection device for firefighters in emergency egress or entrance situations. It is physically and functionally similar to a smoke grenade – with the major difference that it delivers a highly effective aerosol fire suppression agent – Stat-X.

Features

• Offers significant fire “knockdown” and rapid suppression capabilities for enclosed spaces
• Environmentally friendly – No ozone depletion potential – No global warming potential
• Stat-X approved under SNAP program by EPA
• Safe for firefighters and any occupants trapped by fire
• No oxygen depletion – suppresses at very low concentrations by interference with free radicals
• Provides a reliable, cost-effective fire protection tool for a wide range of fire scenarios
• Small, compact, and easily portable to point of attack

Typical application scenarios include:

FIREFIGHTER

Scenario A – Firefighter arrives at the scene of an early-stage fire. After evacuating people and before additional resources arrive at the scene, toss a Stat-X First Responder into the rooms which are involved with the fire. This will buy time for further rescue and for firefighters to lay hose.

Scenario B – Firefighters are concerned about potential flashover from a fire down a hall and water isn’t available yet. Toss a Stat-X First Responder ahead of the firefighters to eliminate many of the contributing factors of a flashover.

Scenario C – A firefighter is trapped or can’t get to a victim due to an intense area of fire. Toss a Stat-X First Responder into the flame area for immediate fire suppression.

POLICE

Scenario A – Police arrive at a vehicle fire as a result of an accident. There are occupants trapped in the burning vehicle and the fire department has not yet arrived. Break a window, toss The Stat-X First Responder into the vehicle to knock down the fire and remove the occupants.

Scenario B – SWAT arrives on-site and must deploy “flash bangers” into an area to stun criminals. These flash bangers often ignite combustibles. Toss a Stat-X First Responder into the flame area for immediate fire suppression for entry or to suppress fire while awaiting the arrival of the fire department.

ENERGY COMPANY EMPLOYEE

Scenario A – The worst-case – fire erupts in a manhole with worker stuck in the manhole and either incapacitated or unable to escape through the flames. The co-worker immediately deploys First Responder and tosses it into the manhole away from the trapped worker. It will suppress/extinguish the fire, buying time for evacuation or power shutdown.

Scenario B – Underground transformer fire or any below-grade enclosed space fire. Just twist and pull the ring, toss the First Responder in. Deploy another as necessary to suppress/extinguish the fire reducing damage and downtime
