What Is a Mechanical Foam Fire Extinguisher?

A Mechanical Foam Fire Extinguisher is designed to combat Class B fires caused by flammable liquids like petrol, diesel, and paints, as well as Class A fires involving solid combustibles. It forms a thick blanket of foam that cools the fire and prevents re-ignition by cutting off the oxygen supply.

• Effective against Class A & B fires.
• Forms a foam seal to suppress flammable vapors.

Foam extinguishers are suitable for areas where flammable liquids are stored or used. However, they are not recommended for use on electrical fires.
