When NASA Kennedy Space
Centre's fire safety experts decided to
replace the fire suppression system in
its giant twin crawler transporters,
they chose a clean, compact, cost
effective, safe and simple firefighting
system called Stat-X. Designed and
manufactured by Fireaway LLC in
the USA, Stat-X kills fires quickly
without harming the environment
and is available in the UK through its
distributor, Nobel Fire Systems.
NASA has ordered Stat-X generators for three areas in both its crawlers and approximately 100 fire suppression units will be installed in the control areas, machine rooms and communication rooms of the crawlers which carry the space shuttles to the Kennedy launch pads for lift off.
