Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Fire Extinguishers
This type of Fire Extinguisher is ideal for Electrical Fires
and Burning Liquid Fires. As the gas will disperse and
evaporate, there is no residue and is harmless to electrical
equipment. This is the main type of Fire Extinguisher used in
Large Kitchens and if used, the gas does not contaminate food.
You may often see this sort of unit banked with AFFF Foam Fire
Extinguishers.
AFFF Foam Spray Fire Extinguishers
The AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming
Foam) Spray Extinguishers are a great fire extinguisher for
tackling fires like wood, paper, and textiles. They are one of
the main types of unit used in and around office areas and hotel
corridors. The AFFF ensures that these units are not conductors
of electricity if accidently sprayed on an electrical appliance.
