Stat-X^® Electrical EX Fixed Systems: Electrical Units for Classified Hazardous Areas

Upon detection of a fire, Stat-X electrical EX generators will be activated automatically from a suitable listed releasing device. All auxiliary system components (release panel, detection, remote pull stations, etc.) are listed/approved by UL, ULC, FM, New York City MEA, and California State Fire Marshall.

Upon activation, the generators produce an exceptionally effective, ultra-fine, potassium based aerosol. Unlike gaseous systems, Stat-X EX aerosol generators are cost effective to install and maintain — as they do not require the pressure vessels, piping, or expensive installation costs associated with other extinguishing systems.

Space and weight requirements are minimal. On an agent weight basis, Stat-X EX aerosol is ten (10) times more effective than gaseous agent alternatives.

The Stat-X EX generator’s effectiveness is a function of its patented design, aerosol composition, and ultra-fine particle size. Fire suppression is rapidly achieved through interference between the ultra-fine aerosol particulate and the flame’s free radicals — terminating propagation of the fire.

Stat-X EX aerosol generators are virtually maintenance free and have a service life of fifteen (15) years. This, coupled to their low installation cost, makes them an extremely cost-effective fire protection solution.

Agent Container. The generator housing is constructed of exterior and interior stainless steel shells separated by an insulating material. The top and bottom of housing is stainless steel and incorporate a 3/4″ NPT fitting to enable direct connection to conduit. The housing is sealed with a non-permeable membrane and shall incorporate a mechanical means to ensure rupture of the membrane

Finish. Brushed stainless steel. Units have passed salt spray corrosion testing per UL 2775 Standard as part of their listing.

Connection Fitting. Our electrical generator is fitted with a choice of factory installed 3/4” NPT or M25x1.5mm male stainless steel or brass 90˚ elbow threaded connections.

Aerosol Agent. Aerosol generated is a potassium based and manufacturer provides a fifteen (15) minute time weighted average data from an independent United States laboratory demonstrating that the aerosol does not produce (at normal design concentrations) harmful levels of CO, CO₂, and NOx based on NIOSH standards. It has no ozone depletion potential and no global warming potential. The agent is approved for commercial sale by the US EPA.

Listing. Aerosol generators are listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories of Canada to UL Standard 2775.

System. Extinguishing system is accomplished by means of distributed generating devices to ensure distribution of extinguishing aerosol throughout the protected volume. Devices are capable of being supervised.

Mounting. Generator devices shall be mounted by means of stainless steel bracketing that allows for directional adjustment through both vertical and horizontal plane.
