The Amerex ABC Dry Chemical fire extinguisher can fight three classes of
fires. The three classes are some of the most common fires. Thus, this fire extinguisher
is a very popular model. 6 YEAR WARRANTY.
Please see
the chart for a more complete description
of the types of fires and extinguishers.
ABC or Multi-Purpose extinguishers utilize a specially fluidized
and siliconized mono ammonium phosphate dry chemical.
It chemically insulates Class A fires by melting at approximately
350°F and coats surface to which it is applied. It
smothers and breaks the chain reaction of Class B fires and will
not conduct electricity back to the operator.
Available in Wheeled and Stationary extinguishers.
The Amerex Carbon Dioxide (CO2) fire extinguishers will fight Class B (flammable
liquids and gasses) and Class C (electrical) fires. Please see
the chart for a more complete description
of the types of fires and extinguishers.
Carbon Dioxide is discharged as a white cloud of
"snow" which smothers a fire by eliminating oxygen.
It is effective for Class B flammable liquids
and is electrically non-conductive. Carbon Dioxide
is a clean, non-contaminating, odorless gas.
Also available in 50 / 100 lb.
wheeled extinguishers and
100 lb. stationary. 5 YEAR WARRANTY
The Amerex Model 240 is an example of a fire extinguisher that is used
to fight Class A fires. Class A fires involve ordinary combustibles,
such as paper, wood, rubber, fabrics, and many plastics. Please see
the chart for a more complete description of the types of fires and extinguishers.
Model 240 utilizes the cooling, soaking and penetrating effect of a
45-55 ft. stream of WATER. The 55 sec. discharge time makes it very
effective for inexperienced operators for use on Class A fires. Protect
from freezing by adding the Model 506 Loaded Stream/Anti-freeze
charge. In areas with a high level chloride content water it may be
corrosion protected by using the Model 507 charge.
The Amerex Model 252 FFFP FOAM is an example of a fire extinguisher that is used
for both Class A and Class B fires. Class B fires involve flammable
liquids and gasses, such as gasoline, oils, paint, lacquer and tar.
Please see the chart for a more complete description of
the types of fires and extinguishers.
Model 252 FFFP FOAM adds class B fire fighting capability to the class A
effectiveness of this extinguisher. The Alcohol Resistant fire fighting
agent is effective on fires in a wide variety of class B materials such
as alcohols, polar solvents, hydrocarbons, and combinations such as gasohol.
Apply to a non-ignited class B liquid spill and it will seal the surface
minimizing the chance of serious fire.
Model BN272NM is designed to fight both Class A and Class C fires.
Class C fires involve live electrical equipment. Please see the chart
for a more complete description of the types of fires and extinguishers.
WATER MIST is the ultimate extinguisher for Class A fires and
where a potential Class C (electrical) hazard exists. The fine spray
from the unique misting nozzle provides safety from electrical
shock, greatly enhances the cooling and soaking characteristics
of the agent and reduces scattering of burning materials. The
Amerex Water Mist extinguishers contain de-ionized water making
them the best extinguishers for protection of hospital environments,
valuable books and documents, telecommunication facilities
and “clean room” manufacturing facilities. The Amerex
Water Mist extinguishers are easy to use, maintain, and service. 5 Year Warranty.
The Amerex Model B570 is used in fighting Class D fires, which are
combustible metals or combustible metal alloys fires. Please see the chart
for a more complete description of the types of fires and extinguishers.
MODEL B570 contains a special blended Sodium Chloride
based dry powder extinguishing agent. Heat from the fire
causes it to cake and form a crust excluding air and
dissipating heat from burning metal. Metal fires involving
magnesium, sodium, potassium and sodium-potassium alloys
can be successfully extinguished with this extinguisher.
There is data showing that zirconium, uranium, titanium, and
powdered aluminum fires can be controlled and extinguished
with this unique extinguisher.
Available in 150 lb. Wheeled or Stationary.
The Amerex Model B262 is for Class K fires, which are fires in
cooking appliances that involve combustible cooking media, like
vegetable or animal oils and fats. Please see the chart
for a more complete description of the types of fires and extinguishers.
WET CHEMICAL extinguishers are the best restaurant kitchen
appliance hand portable fire extinguishers you can purchase. Both
have been tested and approved for the new Class K listing by UL
specifically for restaurant kitchen hazards. They contain a special
potassium acetate based, low PH agent developed for use in preengineered
restaurant kitchen systems. The recent trend to more
efficient cooking appliances and use of unsaturated cooking oils
dictates the use of a hand portable fire extinguisher with greater fire
fighting capacity and cooling effect to combat these very hot and
difficult fires. Available in two sizes - 6 liter or 2½ gal. with attractive
stainless steel cylinders and easy to use hose and spray application
nozzle. The superior fire fighting capability of the Wet Chemical agent
is placed exactly where you aim it with no chemical residue to clean
up. The Models B260 and B262 are the ideal “KITCHEN USE” fire
extinguishers. They supplement existing cooking equipment automatic
system protection for an extra margin of safety.
