The wet chemical extinguishers is ideal for Class 'F' fires, involving cooking oils and fats, such as lard, olive oil, sunflower oil, maize oils and butter. It is extremely effective as the wet chemical rapidly knocks the flames out, cool the burning oil and chemically reacts to product a soap-like solution, sealing the surface and preventing re-ignition. Independent fire tests have established that it is capable of extinguishing a fire in a 75 litre capacity deep fat fryer. The extinguisher is easy to use, producing a gentle, but highly effective spray. The gentle application helps prevent hot oil splashing onto the user. An added benefit is that it is also suitable for freely burning materials (Class 'A') such as wood, paper ad fabrics. |
