Fry Fighter

In a class of its own

Cooking oil fires, because of their high auto-ignition temperatures are difficult to extinguish. Conventional extinguishers are not effective for cooking oil fires, as they do not cool sufficiently or may even cause flash back, so putting the operator at risk.

The 6 litre Fry Fighter extinguisher has been developed to deal specifically with fires resulting from cooking oils and fats. It has the capability to fight fires in deep fat fryers of up to 75 litres capacity.

It contains a specially formulated wet chemical which, when applied to the burning liquid, cools and emulsifies the oil, extinguishing the flame, sealing the surface and preventing re-ignition.

Fire ratings provide a means of measuring the effectiveness of an extinguisher in terms of the maximum size of fire that can be extinguished. Class A rating is related to a wooden crib fire 0.5m wide x 0.56m high x length. The rating figure is ten times the length in metres, eg. 13A uses a crib 1.3 metres long.

Class F relates to cooking oil and cooking fat fires. There are 4 benchmark tests using 5, 15, 25 and 75 litres of sunflower oil. The oil is heated to auto-ignition and allowed to pre burn for 2 minutes. Fire is extinguished and no re-ignition shall occur within 10 minutes of extinguishing the fire.
