ABE Powder is a versatile multi-purpose extinguisher which is used to extinguish: Class A fires (solids - waste, timber, etc), Class B fires (flammable liquids, etc), Class E fires (electrical). Featuring a rugged steel cylinder and rugged handle and trigger, this ABE fire extinguisher is designed to perform when and where you need it.
Using a fire extinguisher on the wrong class of fire can cause the fire to spread. Make sure the extinguisher matches the hazards in the area it will be installed. Powder fire extinguishers can be identified by a white strip around the top of the cylinder. They are widely used for ABE fires, and they work by discharging a fine powder that absorbs the fires fuel source.
