Amerex ABC Dry Chemical Fire Extinguisher

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 degrees 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.

Amerex Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Fire 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.

Amerex Model 240

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

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.

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.

WET CHEMICAL extinguishers are the best restaurant kitchen appliance hand portable fire extinguishers you can purchase. They 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 pre-engineered 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 2.5 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.
