FOAM AFFF FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
Combining the smothering effect of AFFF and the penetrating effect of water, foam fire extinguishersare suitable for Class A and B fires. Use of the spray foam reduces the risk of re-ignition by effectively cooling the fire and forming a flame smothering seal over the surface. It is highly effective against petrol and volatile liquids and is ideal for multi-risk usage.

Fire ratings provide a means of measuring the effectiveness of a fire extinguisher in terms of the maximum size of fire that can be extinguished. Class A rating is related to a wooden crib fire 0.5m wide x 0.56m high x length. The rating figure is ten times the length in metres, for example. 13A uses a crib 1.3 metres long. Class B is related to fire surface area and the rating figure to the quantity of flammable liquid in a ratio of 1/3 water, 2/3 fuel that can be extinguished in a circular tray.
