High-Performance Dry Chemical Fire Extinguishing Powder

Your First Line of Defense Against Diverse Fire Threats

Dry Chemical Powder is a versatile and highly effective fire extinguishing agent renowned for its rapid knockdown capabilities and broad-spectrum fire suppression. Engineered for critical safety applications, our premium-grade dry chemical powders are designed to meet the most stringent international standards, providing superior protection across a wide range of environments.

Product Overview:

Our Dry Chemical Powder is a finely pulverized extinguishing agent composed of various chemical compounds, specially treated to resist packing, absorbing moisture, and improve flow characteristics. When discharged, it creates a chemical reaction that interrupts the fire tetrahedron (heat, fuel, oxygen, and chemical chain reaction), rapidly suppressing flames and preventing re-ignition. It is the go-to solution for tackling multi-class fires with unparalleled efficiency.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Broad-Spectrum Fire Suppression:
  • Class A Fires: (Ordinary Combustibles like wood, paper, textiles) - Forms a molten barrier that smothers and cools. (Specific to ABC powder)
  • Class B Fires: (Flammable Liquids and Gases like petrol, oil, propane) - Interrupts the chemical chain reaction and creates a barrier.
  • Class C Fires: (Energized Electrical Equipment) - Non-conductive nature makes it safe for use on live electrical apparatus without risk to the operator.
  • Class D Fires: (Combustible Metals - Note: Specific D-class powders are required for these, standard dry chemicals are not effective and can be dangerous.)
• Rapid Fire Knockdown: Quickly extinguishes flames by inhibiting the chemical reactions that sustain combustion, offering immediate protection in critical situations.
• Non-Conductive: Safe for use on electrical fires without risking electrical shock, making it ideal for environments with sensitive electronics or machinery.
• Excellent Storage Stability: Formulated with flow enhancers and moisture repellents to ensure a long shelf life and consistent performance.
• Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of fire extinguishing equipment, including portable fire extinguishers, wheeled units, and fixed suppression systems.
• Cost-Effective Solution: Provides highly efficient fire protection at an economical price point.
• Visible Residue: Leaves a visible residue after use, providing confirmation of coverage and aiding in post-fire cleanup assessment.

Types of Dry Chemical Powder Available:

We offer specialized formulations to precisely match your fire protection needs:

1. ABC Multi-Purpose Dry Chemical Powder (Monoammonium Phosphate - MAP):
   • Composition: Primarily Monoammonium Phosphate.
   • Fire Classes: A, B, and C.
   • Characteristics: Yellowish powder, highly effective by forming a sticky residue that smothers Class A fires, and disrupting chain reactions for Class B and C.
2. BC Dry Chemical Powder (Sodium Bicarbonate / Potassium Bicarbonate):
   • Composition:
     • Standard BC: Sodium Bicarbonate based.
     • High-Performance BC (Purple K): Potassium Bicarbonate based – offers superior extinguishing power, especially for Class B fires, compared to Sodium Bicarbonate.
   • Fire Classes: B and C.
   • Characteristics: Typically white (Sodium Bicarbonate) or purple (Potassium Bicarbonate/Purple K) powder, primarily works by interrupting the chemical chain reaction. Leaves a non-corrosive residue.

Typical Applications:

• Industrial Facilities: Factories, warehouses, chemical plants, power generation.
• Commercial Buildings: Offices, retail spaces, hotels, educational institutions.
• Transportation: Vehicles, marine vessels, aircraft hangers.
• Residential Use: Home fire extinguishers.
• Special Hazards: Flammable liquid storage, paint booths, electrical substations.

Technical Specifications (Varies by type - ABC / BC):

• Chemical Composition: Monoammonium Phosphate (ABC) / Sodium Bicarbonate / Potassium Bicarbonate (BC)
• Appearance: Fine, free-flowing powder (Yellow for ABC, White/Purple for BC)
• Particle Size Distribution: Optimized for maximum effectiveness and discharge range.
• Moisture Content: < 0.25% (ensures flowability and prevents caking)
• Density: 0.80 – 1.00 g/cm³ (bulk density, varies by type)
• Water Repellency: Treated for hydrophobic properties.
• Thermal Stability: Excellent performance across a wide temperature range.
• Corrosivity: Low to negligible on most materials, though residue should be cleaned promptly.
• Standard Compliance: Meets or exceeds international standards such as UL, EN 615, NFPA 10, ISO, etc. (Please specify required standards).

Safety & Handling:

While generally considered low in toxicity, inhalation of fine dust can cause irritation to the respiratory system. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed information.

• Recommended PPE: Dust mask, safety goggles, gloves.
• Ventilation: Use in well-ventilated areas.
• Cleanup: Residue should be cleaned up promptly to prevent slip hazards and potential corrosion to sensitive equipment over time.

Packaging & Availability:

Our Dry Chemical Powder is available in various packaging options to suit your operational needs:

• 25 kg / 50 lb Bags: Durable, moisture-resistant bags for easy handling and storage.
• Bulk Containers / Super Sacks: For large-scale industrial requirements.
• Custom Packaging: Available upon request.
