Dry chemical powder extinguishers use Sodium Bicarbonate that has been siliconized. It chemically insulates class B and C fires by forming a cloud and cutting off the oxygen supply, causing the fire to extinguish. It suffocates and interrupts the chain reaction of Class B fires and does not conduct electricity back to the operator.
Dry powder extinguishers are intended to protect against light and common hazards.
Suitable for fire classes B and C, such as flammable liquids and gases.
To achieve high performance, reliable components are carefully selected to provide maximum efficiency, along with high quality agents.
