Description
Fire Extinguisher Foam – 9L is a robust, water-based fire suppression unit designed to deliver superior performance against fires involving ordinary solid combustibles and, crucially, flammable liquids . Utilizing Aqueous Film-Forming Foam or a similar foam concentrate, this unit is the largest and most widely adopted portable foam size for use in commercial, industrial, and garage environments.
Features:
- Smothering: Forming a durable, airtight blanket or film over the surface of flammable liquids, effectively cutting off oxygen supply. This is the key action against Class B fires.
- Cooling: The water content rapidly reduces the temperature of burning solids and the liquid fuel surface.
- Class A: Fires involving ordinary combustibles (wood, paper, textiles, plastics).
- Class B: Fires involving flammable liquids (petrol, oils, lubricants, solvents, paint).
- 9 Litre Capacity: This maximum portable size provides a powerful and sustained discharge (often 40 to 60 seconds), offering a longer range and greater extinguishing power needed for larger incipient fires than smaller units.
- Operating Mechanism: A standard stored pressure extinguisher, complete with an external pressure gauge for easy verification of operational readiness
- Prevention of Re-ignition: The aqueous film created by provides a reliable barrier against flammable vapors, which is highly effective
- Application: Discharged through a spray nozzle or foam applicator designed to ensure the agent.
- Workshops and Garages: To protect against fuel and oil spills.
- Loading Docks and Fuel Points: Providing reliable suppression for liquid hazard.
-
Warehouses: Especially those storing mixed solid goods and liquids.
