When it comes to protecting your home, office, workshop, or industrial space from the unexpected, the ABC Dry Chemical Fire Extinguisher stands as your versatile and highly effective fire safety companion. This multipurpose extinguisher is engineered to combat various types of fires, including Class A (wood, paper), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (electrical) fires, making it an indispensable tool for a wide range of environments.
Designed for applications necessitating discharge rate of one pound per second, in compliance with NFPA 10 regulations, the ABC High Flow fire extinguisher is the pinnacle of fire protection. This extinguisher stands as our top choice for areas housing substantial volumes of flammable liquid storage. Its remarkable high discharge rate ensures rapid coverage, swiftly neutralizing the fumes of a flammable liquids fire, allowing for a swift and effective fire extinguishing process. Elevate your fire safety measures with the unmatched power of the ABC high flow fire extinguisher.
Designed to tackle Class A fires and tailored for environments with potential Class C (electrical) hazards, the Water Mist Fire Extinguisher stands as the epitome of fire safety technology. Water Mist fire extinguishers are powered by deionized water, a mineral-free variant that eliminates conductivity. This feature makes them the preeminent choice for protecting highly sensitive environments such as hospitals, server rooms, and "clean room" manufacturing facilities.
Wet Chemical fire extinguishers are the ultimate kitchen safety solution, specifically designed for restaurant environments. As modern kitchens embrace more efficient cooking appliances and vegetable-based oils, the need for superior fire-fighting capacity and cooling effects has grown. Wet Chemical fire extinguishers excel in this regard, accurately targeting fires without leaving dry chemical residue. They offer a vital layer of safety in conjunction with existing automatic fire protection systems.
The Water fire extinguisher deploys a forceful 45-55-foot water stream, employing a combination of cooling, soaking, and penetrating effects. With a generous 55-second discharge time, it's especially suitable for less experienced operators. Primed for Class A fires, encompassing materials like wood, cloth, paper, and numerous plastics, it ensures a swift and effective response. Equip your space with this reliable extinguisher for robust fire protection.
Designed with a focus on safeguarding sensitive equipment, the CO2 fire extinguisher is your dedicated solution for combatting electrical fires. This clean, non-conductive agent is perfectly suited for environments like laboratories, and computer suites, where the preservation of delicate electronic gear is paramount. Its standout feature is its rapid discharge, ensuring swift action without leaving any harmful by-products. Upon activation, it releases a dense "snow" cloud of carbon dioxide (CO2), effectively smothering the fire by displacing oxygen.
The Class D fire extinguisher is armed with a specially blended sodium-chloride-based dry powder extinguishing agent. When exposed to fire's heat, it forms a protective crust, sealing off air and dispersing heat from burning metals. The Class D fire extinguisher stands uniquely capable of addressing metal fires including magnesium, sodium, potassium, and sodium-potassium alloys. Empirical evidence further attests to its proficiency in managing fires involving zirconium, uranium, titanium, and powdered aluminum.
Halon 1211 is a liquefied gas pressurized with nitrogen, ensuring a seamless discharge as a vapor. This unique attribute spares operators from experiencing cold or static shock and preserves their unobstructed vision. As a "CLEAN" agent, it swiftly permeates obscure and inaccessible spaces without leaving any residue behind. This specialized extinguishing agent is highly recommended for safeguarding delicate, sensitive, and valuable assets such as computers, electrical equipment, tapes, film, automotive and aircraft engines, as well as laboratory chemicals and equipment.
Halotron I, a cutting-edge fire extinguishing agent, deploys as a swiftly evaporating liquid. This unique characteristic ensures it leaves no residue, is nonconductive, and non-corrosive. As the pioneer in the clean agent market, Halotron I has a proven track record in safeguarding valuable assets across various industries. From small-scale aircraft to large commercial planes, data centers to pharmaceutical and industrial plants, it has effectively extinguished fires, curtailed damage, and minimized downtime, distinguishing itself from other agents.
Halotron BrX offers a pioneering solution as a replacement for Halon 1211. BrX stands out as a low Global Warming Potential (GWP) and extremely low Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) clean agent, approved for use on commercial aircraft. It's regarded as an environmentally friendlier option compared to some other extinguishing agents. Halotron BrX finds wide application in critical environments where clean fire suppression is paramount, including data centers, laboratories, and areas with sensitive electronic equipment.
Purple K fire extinguishers are equipped with a specially formulated potassium bicarbonate dry chemical, fluidized and siliconized for optimal performance. This agent excels in combating Class B fires involving flammable liquids and pressurized gases, as well as Class C electrical fires. Notably, it is electrically nonconductive, ensuring safe use in electrical emergencies. Renowned and trusted, Purple K has been the preferred fire-fighting agent for the oil, gas, chemical, and utilities industries.
It is critical to have the right fire extinguisher for the right application.
According to NFPA 10, it is mandatory to have a licensed technician service all fire extinguishers every six years (with some types requiring more frequent servicing). This process entails a thorough disassembly of the fire extinguisher, removal of the extinguishing agent, a meticulous examination of the cylinder for any signs of rust or damage, a comprehensive cleaning of all components, followed by a recharge. This procedure is a vital measure to guarantee the operational readiness of your fire extinguisher in case of a fire emergency.
