The Amerex 6-Liter Stored Pressure Wet Chemical Fire Extinguisher stops Class K fires (i.e.cooking oils and grease) effectively. It is an essential fire extinguisher for commercial and industrial kitchens that use high-efficiency cooking appliances (e.g., deep fryers, griddles, solid fuel charbroilers) and high-temperature cooking oils. Its specially blended potassium acetate-based agent sprays a fine mist to prevent grease splash and re-flash while it cools down the appliance. With a UL rating of 2A:K, it has the same firefighting power as 2.5 gallons of water and can also be used for Class A fires (ordinary combustibles like paper and wood).
Highly effective Class K fire suppressant. Specially made to put out kitchen and grease fires, Class K extinguishers contain wet chemical agents that cover the flame, cool the burning oil, and cut off the oxygen supply. The wet chemical used in Amerex Class K extinguishers is tested on commercial deep fat fryers to ANSI/UL711 test protocol and is safe to use on energized electrical appliances. It can be used in temperatures ranging from +40°F to 120°F.
User-friendly. The B260 fire extinguisher is factory-charged and ready to install with the inclusion of a wall bracket. It’s easy to pull and use with its stainless steel pull pin and large loop. The hose allows the nozzle to be easily maneuvered and aimed at the fire while holding the extinguisher upright. For an easy “overhead” application, the nozzle grip features a 45° angle. Unlike dry chemical agents, it does not leave a residue behind for easy clean-up.
Highly durable. The Amerex B260 features an all stainless steel valve and polished, stainless steel cylinder. Unlike extinguishers with plastic parts, it has a crevice-free welded butt for long lasting rechargeability. It is guaranteed to last long with proper maintenance and service. All Amerex extinguishers are QR-coded and have bilingual labels.
