Fluorine-free AB foam

Fluorine-free foam extinguishers are suitable for Class A and B fires. They are fluorine-free foam extinguishers and are therefore environmentally friendly. They are mainly used for extinguishing flammable liquids that do not mix with water (e.g. petrol, diesel, mineral oils, paints). The extinguishing agent is water mixed with foam. The foam makes wetting easier, but above all, the foam isolates the burning substances from the oxygen in the air - thus working on the principle of the suffocation effect. These devices are used in the chemical industry, flammable liquid warehouses, paint shops, etc. Foam can be easily removed from surfaces after fire fighting.
