Specialist Fire Extinguishers

The Optimax wet chemical extinguisher is ideal for Class 'F' fires, involving cooking oils and fats. It is extremely effective as the wet chemical rapidly knocks the flames out, cools the burning oil and chemically reacts to produce a soap-like solution, sealing the surface and preventing re-ignition. Independent fire tests have established that it is capable of extinguishing a fire in a 75 litre capactity deep fat fryer. The extinguisher is easy to use, producing a gentle, but highly effective spray. The gentle application helps prevent hot oil splashing on to the user.
