Detailed Description:
What Makes the 3L Wet Chemical Fire Extinguisher Stand Out? The 3L Wet Chemical Fire Extinguisher, EWCS3/EWCS3H, is a premier safety tool designed specifically for tackling Class F fires (cooking oils and fats) in commercial and industrial kitchens. This extinguisher is also effective against Class A fires (wood, paper, textiles), providing comprehensive fire safety. The availability of two models, one with a lance assembly and the other with a hose assembly, ensures versatility and ease of use in various situations.
How Effective is the Wet Chemical Technology in Fire Extinguishers? Wet Chemical technology is designed to tackle high-temperature cooking oils and fats. The extinguishing agent creates a saponification reaction, forming a thick layer of foam on the surface of the burning oil, which cools and seals the surface, preventing re-ignition. This extinguisher also meets the dielectric test requirements for electrical fires (Class E), making it safe to use around electrical equipment up to 1000 volts.
How to Use the 3L Wet Chemical Fire Extinguisher?
-
Identify the Fire Type: Determine if the fire is Class F or Class A.
-
Aim: For EWCS3, direct the lance at the base of the fire; for EWCS3H, direct the hose.
-
Discharge: Release the extinguishing agent while keeping a safe distance.
-
Sweep: Move the nozzle side to side until the fire is completely extinguished.
By following these steps, you can effectively control and extinguish kitchen fires, ensuring safety and minimizing damage.
What are the Customization Options?
-
Corporate Branding: Enhance your corporate image with customizable branded header labels. This feature not only aids in quick identification during emergencies but also integrates seamlessly with your organization’s branding, promoting a professional and cohesive look.

What are the Benefits of Using Wet Chemical Extinguishers in Kitchens? Wet Chemical extinguishers are specially designed to tackle Class F fires, which involve cooking oils and fats. The chemical agent reacts with the burning oil to form a non-combustible soap-like layer, cooling the fire and preventing re-ignition. This feature is crucial in high-risk kitchen environments where quick and effective fire suppression can prevent catastrophic damage and ensure the safety of personnel.
