INTRODUCTION

Anyone who might be expected to use this

fire extinguisher should study and under-

stand the information in this manual. Please

read it completely and keep it accessible so

that it may be reviewed on a periodic basis.

OSHA requires training of personnel who might

be expected to use an extinguisher in the case

of an emergency. Familiarity with this manual

and the instruction nameplate on the

extinguisher will contribute to successful use of

the extinguisher. You should know just what it

CAN and CANNOT do, where it is located, how

to use it and how to maintain it. Proper and

effective use of any fire extinguisher begins

with an understanding of the classes of fire.

Extinguishers are tested and rated for certain

classes and sizes of fires. Some are rated for

single classifications, some for multiple

classifications and others constitute a hazard if

used on certain types of fires.

TYPES AND CLASSES OF FIRES

IMPORTANT THINGS TO

REMEMBER!

NEVER DISCHARGE A FIRE

EXTINGUISHER INTO ANYONE’S

FACE

NEVER THROW AN EXTINGUISHER

INTO THE FIRE OR LEAVE IT

UNATTENDED IF THE FIRE

IS NOT OUT

(

Pressure build-up could cause an

explosion from even a partially full

extinguisher)

KEEP FIRE EXTINGUISHERS AWAY

FROM CHILDREN

Water, Water Mist and

AFFF and FFFP Foam Extinguishers

The above referred to models are shipped

EMPTY – they must be filled and pressurized

before being placed into service.

Model 240, 250, 252, 254 – Never use involving live

electrical equipment. The nameplate on the

extinguishers have the international red slash across

the Class C symbol designating the hazard of using

them where electricity is involved.

Model B260, B262 – Wet Chemical (Class K)

extinguishers are approved for use for fires involving

cooking media.

Model B270, B272 – Water Mist Extinguishers must

be charged using deionized water to avoid

contaminates. These extinguishers are UL Listed for

Class A and Class C fires.

Never use Water Mist, Water, AFFF or FFFP Foam

extinguisher

s for fires in cooking media. The water

in all could flash to steam due to the extremely high

temperatures and cause serious burns.

Model’s 250, 252, and 254 AR AFFF Foam may be

used for fires

involving water based flammable

liquids such as alcohols or ketones.

DO NOT SUBJECT ANY OF THE

EXTINGUISHERS IN THIS GROUP TO

CONDITIONS WHERE THEY MIGHT

FREEZE.

NOTE: Only the Model 240 2½ gallon water

extinguisher may be chemically freeze pr o t e c t e d to

-40º F with the addition of an Amerex Model B506

charge. The B506 is not designed to protect Water

Mist, Wet Chemical, AFFF or FFFP Foam

extinguishers.

DRY CHEMICAL, DRY POWDER

(CLASS D), HALOTRON I, HALON 1211,

WET CHEMICAL (CLASS K) AND

CARBON DIOXIDE EXTINGUISHERS

These extinguishers are shipped factory charged.

Do not test your extinguisher since even a

small amount of discharge could cause it to lose

pressure making it less effective or useless in

case of a fire.

Dry chemicals are non-poisonous but either

the acidic based (ABC) or alkaline based

(Regular or Purple K) chemicals could be an

irritant if inhaled. If any physical discomfort is

experienced, contact a physician immediately.

Dry chemical is not recommended for fires in

delicate electric

al equipment or aircraft. Use

of this agent may extinguish the fire but may

damage the equipment beyond repair.

Neither Halotron I nor Halon 1211 should be

used in con

fined areas smaller than indicated

on the extinguisher nameplate, food

preparation areas or in the presence of people

with cardiac problems. If problems occur,

quickly remove the person from the area

where the gas is present, apply artificial

respiration and transport to a physician.

Never use ABC dry chemical, Halon 1211 or

Halotron I fire e

xtinguishers on fires involving

chlorine containing oxidizers (example: pool

chemicals). A violent explosive reaction could

occur with the mixture of chemicals.

Wet Chemical (Class K) Extinguishers are

approve

d for use for fires involving cooking

media. Do not subject these extinguishers to

conditions where they might freeze

Carbon Dioxide is discharged as a gas (with

small particle

s of snow) at extremely low

temperatures and will displace oxygen. Care

should be exercised in confined areas. If

problems occur, quickly remove the person

from the area where the gas is present, apply

artificial respiration and transport to a

physician. Avoid skin contact which could

cause cold burns.

NOTE: As required by OSHA, Safety Data Sheets

(SDS) are available for all chemicals contained in

these fire extinguishers. Contact your Amerex

distributor or Amerex Corporation. In addition, the

SDS information is contained in a special section of

all extinguisher labels. All SDS are available on the

Amerex website at www.amerex-fire.com.
