Amerex B570 30 lb Class D Fire Extinguisher

Combustible metal fires defeat ordinary extinguishers, and machine shops that mill magnesium or titanium know it. Model B570 holds 30 lb of a special blended sodium chloride-based dry powder. Fire heat drives the powder to cake into a crust over the burning metal, sealing it off from air while drawing heat out of the melt. Amerex lists magnesium, sodium, potassium, and sodium-potassium alloy fires as successfully extinguished by this unit, with supporting data extending the same control-and-extinguishment claim to zirconium, uranium, titanium, and powdered aluminum.

• 30 lb of special blended sodium chloride-based dry powder for Class D combustible metal fires
• Extension applicator lets the operator stand away from extreme heat and toxic fumes
• Easily controlled, even discharge for non-dispersing application of the agent
• Applicator detaches quickly for a straight stream when greater range is required
• Dependable drawn steel cylinder with bilingual labels; pair it with the Model 859 dolly cart for easier transport
