WHERE TO USE

Amerex manufactures an extensive variety of hand-portable and wheeled fire extinguishers, both "compliance" (code required) and "specialty" types.

"Compliance" extinguishers are designed to meet and exceed state or local fire protection requirements. "Specialty" extinguishers are intended for use on particular types of hazards. Careful attention should be paid to locating them in close proximity to the specific hazard they are meant to protect. It is natural for a person to use the extinguisher located nearest to a fire. The most current issue

of NFPA-10 should be consulted for minimum recommended fire extinguisher types, placement, and travel distances. Your local Amerex Fire Equipment Distributor is professionally equipped to help you evaluate and implement these recommendations. All "Pictograms" are detailed below and should be reviewed with all who might be expected to use a fire extinguisher. Everyone should

be familiar with these picture symbols which identify the types of fires on which they may be used. The international sign system diagonal red slash indicates a potential danger if the extinguisher is used on that particular type of fire.

Types of Fires Class A Ordinary combustibles

Wood, paper, rubber, fabrics, and many plastics

Class B Flammable liquids & gases

Gasoline, oils, paint, lacquer, and tar

Class C Live electrical equipment

Fires involving live electrical equipment

Class D Combustible metals or combustible metal alloys

NO picture symbol

Class K Fires in cooking appliance that involve combustible cooking media Vegetable or Animal Oils, and Fats

HOW TO USE

All Amerex extinguishers are furnished with a detailed "Owners Manual" containing valuable information. The manual contains information on the installation, use, and maintenance of the extinguisher. The extinguisher nameplate contains specific information on "HOW TO USE" the particular extinguisher. The label instructions vary slightly according to type and size. All potential operators should be totally familiar with the instructions on any extinguisher they might be required to use.

WET CHEMICAL

WET CHEMICAL extinguishers are the best restaurant kitchen appliance hand-portable fire extinguishers you can purchase. Each model utilizes a specially blended potassium acetate base agent and has been tested and approved by UL for restaurant kitchen hazards. The recent trend to more efficient cooking appliances and use of vegetable-based cooking oils dictates the use of a hand-portable fire extinguisher with greater fire-fighting capacity and cooling effect to combat these very hot and difficult fires. Available in two sizes; 6 liter or 2? gallon?with attractive stainless-steel cylinders and easy-to-use hose-and-spray application nozzle. The superior fire-fighting capability of the Wet Chemical agent is placed exactly where you aim it with no dry chemical residue to clean up. The Models B260 and B262 are the ideal "KITCHEN USE" fire extinguishers. They supplement existing cooking equipment automatic system protection for an extra margin of safety.

WATER MIST

WATER MIST is the ultimate extinguisher for Class A fires and for locations where a potential Class C (electrical) hazard exists. The fine spray from the unique misting nozzle provides safety from electrical shock, greatly enhances the cooling and soaking characteristics of the agent, and reduces scattering of burning materials. The Amerex Water Mist extinguishers contain de-ionized water (sold separately) making them the best extinguishers for protection of hospital environments, telecommunication facilities, and "clean room" manufacturing facilities. The Amerex Water Mist extinguishers are easy to use, maintain, and service.
