ABC

Amerex ABC fire extinguishers protect against Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids) and Class C (energized electrical) fires. The line runs from the 2.5 lb B417T to the 20 lb A411 and 423, with UL ratings from 1A:10B:C to 10A:120B:C. Choose an aluminum valve for light to medium duty, or a chrome-plated brass valve for heavy-duty and harsh environments. Every model carries a 6-year manufacturer's warranty and is made in Trussville, Alabama.

ABC or Multi-Purpose Fire 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.

The ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher comes with a dependable drawn-steel cylinder, all metal valve construction, and a stored pressure design. It has a Temperature Range of -65°F to 120°F and a 6-Year Manufacturer’s Warranty. There are two options for valve materials where a Chrome-Plated Brass Valve Body and Stainless-Steel Handle and Lever are used in heavy duty situations. For light to medium duty, an Anodized Aluminum Valve Body, Handle, and Lever are used.
