Amerex B479 5 lb Purple K Fire Extinguisher

Refineries, tank farms, utility yards, and chemical plants keep Purple K within arm's reach for one reason: it shuts down flammable liquid fire in a hurry. The Amerex B479 carries 5 lb of specially fluidized and siliconized potassium bicarbonate dry chemical, the agent oil, gas, chemical, and utility industries have long preferred for Class B flammable liquids and pressurized gases. Because the agent is electrically non-conductive, an accidental hit on live equipment does not put the operator at risk.

• UL rated 30B:C for flammable liquid, pressurized gas, and energized electrical hazards
• 5 lb charge of fluidized, siliconized potassium bicarbonate (Purple K) dry chemical
• Aluminum valve with light- to medium-duty anodized aluminum valve body, handle, and lever
