Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers
A special fire
extinguisher for use on Class F fires - cooking
oils etc.
The specialist wet chemical extinguishers are ideal
for Class F fires, involving cooking oils and fats, such as
lard, olive oil, sunflower oil, maize oil and butter. It is
extremely effective as the wet chemical rapidly knocks the
flames out, cools the burning oil and chemically reacts to form
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 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 and fabrics.
