Mechanical Foam Fire Extinguisher (AFFF) – Your Versatile Fire Defense Solution

Protect your premises and personnel with our high-performance Mechanical Foam Fire Extinguisher, specifically designed to combat Class A (ordinary combustibles) and Class B (flammable liquids) fires. Utilizing an advanced Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) agent, this extinguisher offers rapid knockdown and effective blanketing action, providing superior protection in environments where both solid and liquid fire risks are present.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Dual-Purpose Fire Protection: Effectively extinguishes Class A (wood, paper, textiles) and Class B (petrol, oil, paints, solvents) fires.
• Rapid Knockdown: The foam agent quickly smothers flames by cutting off the oxygen supply and cooling the fuel source.
• Vapor Suppression & Re-ignition Prevention: Creates a durable film over liquid fuels, preventing the release of flammable vapors and reducing the risk of re-ignition.
• High Quality AFFF Agent: Formulated for maximum effectiveness and environmental responsibility.
• Durable Construction: Manufactured with robust steel cylinders and high-grade brass valves for long-lasting reliability.
• Easy-to-Read Pressure Gauge: Allows for quick visual inspection to ensure the extinguisher is ready for use.
• Ergonomic Design: Features a user-friendly squeeze grip handle and a controlled discharge hose with a nozzle for precise application.
• Wall Mount Bracket Included: For secure and accessible placement in critical areas.
• Rechargeable: Can be refilled by certified professionals after use, extending its operational life.
• Safety Certified: Complies with relevant national and international safety standards (e.g., EN3, CE Marked).

How It Works:

Our Mechanical Foam Extinguisher operates by discharging a concentrated foam solution that rapidly expands upon contact with air. This foam agent creates three critical actions against fire:

1. Smothering: Forms a thick, insulating blanket over the burning material, effectively cutting off the oxygen supply.
2. Cooling: The water content in the foam helps to cool the fuel, reducing its temperature below the ignition point.
3. Film Formation: For Class B liquid fires, the AFFF agent forms an aqueous film that floats on top of the fuel, suppressing flammable vapors and preventing flash-back.

Classes of Fire:

This extinguisher is ideal for the following fire classes:

• Class A Fires: Fires involving ordinary combustible materials such as wood, paper, cloth, plastics, and rubbish.
• Class B Fires: Fires involving flammable liquids such as petrol, oil, lubricants, paints, solvents, and other petroleum-based products.

IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS:

• NOT for Class C (Electrical) Fires: Foam is water-based and electrically conductive. Never use on live electrical equipment.
• NOT for Class D (Metal) Fires: Ineffective and potentially dangerous for fires involving combustible metals like magnesium, titanium, or potassium.
• NOT for Class K (Cooking Oil/Fat) Fires: While it can suppress some cooking oil fires, it is not specifically designed for the high temperatures of deep fat fryers; a Class K extinguisher is recommended for these specific hazards.

Ideal Applications:

• Industrial Facilities: Factories, warehouses, workshops, manufacturing plants.
• Automotive: Garages, service stations, car parks, repair shops.
• Commercial: Offices with potential liquid risks, retail spaces, storage areas.
• Marine: Boats, ships, docks, and marine vessels.
• Public Buildings: Schools, hospitals, hotels, community centers (in appropriate zones).
• Residential: Larger homes with attached garages, workshops, or fuel storage areas.

Maintenance & Longevity:

Regular inspection of the pressure gauge (needle in the green zone) and an annual professional service by a qualified technician are essential to ensure the extinguisher remains in optimal working condition. Our foam extinguishers are built to last, with a typical cylinder lifespan of 10 years, provided they are properly maintained and serviced.
