ABC MULTI-PURPOSE STORED PRESSURE DRY CHEMICAL EXTINGUISHERS in CALIFORNIA

ABC_Aluminum3ABC or Multi-Purpose extinguishers utilize a specially fluidized and siliconized mono ammonium phosphate dry chemical. It chemically insulates Class A fires by melting at approximately 350°F and coats surface to which it is applied. It smothers and breaks the chain reaction of Class B fires and will not conduct electricity back to the operator.

How to Use a Fire Extinguisher

Using a Fire Extinguisher:
To help you remember how to use an extinguisher, use the acronym PASS:

  • Pull the extinguisher ‘s safety pin.
  • Aim the chemical at the source of the flames rather than at the flames themselves, standing at least 6 feet from the fire.
  • Squeeze the trigger and hold it, keeping the extinguisher upright.
  • Sweep the source of the flames until the extinguisher runs dry.
