Foam Based Fire Extinguishers

  • Foam extinguishers excel at smothering and extinguishing fires involving flammable liquids like gasoline, oil, and grease. They create a barrier that prevents oxygen from reaching the fuel source, stopping the fire and preventing reignition.
  • Specifically designed for flammable liquids (Class B fires), foam extinguishers are ideal for garages, workshops, and kitchens prone to grease fires.
  • Foam extinguishes by both knocking down flames (rapid cooling) and sealing the fuel source, preventing vapors from igniting.
  • Some foam extinguishers can also tackle Class A fires (ordinary combustibles) due to their smothering capabilities.

Benefits Water Based Fire Extinguishers

  • Foam based fire extinguishers excel at tackling flammable liquid fires like gasoline, oil, and grease, ideal for garages, workshops, and kitchens.
  • Foam creates a thick layer that suffocates flames and prevents oxygen from reaching the fuel source, stopping the fire and preventing reignition.
  • Many foam extinguishers are effective against Class B fires (flammable liquids) and some Class A fires (ordinary combustibles) due to their smothering capabilities.
  • Foam extinguishers by both rapidly cooling the flames (knockdown) and sealing the fuel source, preventing flammable vapors from igniting.
  • For maximum effectiveness, foam needs to be applied directly to the burning liquid surface.
  • Different types of foam extinguishers exist, like AFFF (Alcohol-Formed Film Forming Foam), catering to specific fire hazards.
  • Many foam extinguishers boast user-friendly designs for quick and effective operation in a fire emergency.
  • Discharged foam can create slippery surfaces, posing a fall hazard. Proper cleanup is essential after use.
  • Some foam agents can be harmful to the environment. Choose extinguishers with eco-friendly foam if possible.

Buy Foam Based Fire Extinguishers

Ordinary fire extinguishers just won’t do when it comes to flammable liquids like gasoline, oil, or grease. That’s where foam based fire extinguishers come in! We offer a variety of these specialized extinguishers designed to tackle these types of fires effectively.

Foam fire extinguishers work by smothering the flames with a thick blanket of foam, cutting off the oxygen supply and preventing reignition. They’re ideal for garages, workshops, and kitchens where grease fires are a potential hazard. Some foam extinguishers can even handle regular fires involving wood, paper, and textiles.

However, it’s important to remember that foam based fire extinguishers aren’t a one-size-fits-all solution. They won’t work on fires involving solid materials, and they need to be applied directly to the burning liquid to be most effective. Discharged foam can also be slippery, so proper cleanup is crucial. Additionally, some foam agents can be harmful to the environment, so we offer eco-friendly options whenever possible.

Selecting the right fire extinguisher is important. While foam extinguishers are great for flammable liquids, other types might be necessary for electrical fires or specific hazards. Our fire safety experts can help you choose the right extinguisher for your needs, including providing information on proper foam fire extinguisher use.
