FSP · P-02
What it is
Amerex B456 is a 10 lb ABC dry chemical fire extinguisher rated 4A:80B:C for ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids and gases, and live electrical equipment. Discharge runs 22 seconds with an initial range of 15 to 21 ft at 195 PSIG. The agent is a specially fluidized and siliconized mono ammonium phosphate that melts and coats the burning surface, insulating Class A fuel and breaking the chain reaction on Class B fires. The cylinder is drawn-steel with an anodized aluminum valve body, anodized aluminum handle and lever. A wall bracket ships with the extinguisher. The operating temperature range is −65°F to 120°F.
Bigger spaces call for more agent, and the Amerex B456 answers with 10 lb of ABC dry chemical and a UL rating of 4A:80B:C. It is built for fires involving trash, wood, and paper (Class A), liquids and gases (Class B), and electric fires (Class C). The spray hose puts agent exactly where you aim it, and the easy-to-read pressure gauge confirms at a glance that the unit is ready to use.
