In order to extinguish these fires they need to be cooled sufficiently therefore conventional extinguishers are not as effective due to the risk of flash back and re-ignition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecialist wet chemical extinguishers are ideal for Class F fires, involving cooking oils and fats, such as lard, olive oil, sunflower oil, maize oil and butter. It is extremely effective as the wet chemical rapidly knocks the flames out, cools the burning oil and chemically reacts to form a soap-like solution, sealing the surface and preventing re-ignition.\u003cbr\u003eSafequip’s Wet Chemical Extinguisher is specifically designed to combat fires resulting from fats and edible oils burning in deep fryers. It is charged with a specially formulated wet chemical. The extinguisher is ideally suitable for use in restaurants, hospitals kitchens, nursing homes, hotels, schools, airports, and other similar facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wet chemical extinguisher reacts with hot, burning cooking oil or fat. When the fire extinguishing substance is applied to the burning liquid it will cool and emulsify the oil, and the flames will immediately subside. An effective fire extinguishing film of foam forms on the surface which prevents re-ignition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wet chemical agent is a special salt based fire extinguishing liquid used in fire extinguishers or stationary fire extinguishing installations for fighting fires in deep fat fryers, frying appliances as well as air exhaust facilities in kitchens and is applied to the burning surface using spray nozzles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wet Chemical Agent can easily be removed after use without having to use any special aids. The foam remains restricted to the fire zone whilst other parts of the facility covered by the fire extinguishing substance can be cleaned using plenty of clear water or a steam jet cleaner.\u003cbr\u003eThe cooking oil or fat contaminated with the fire extinguishing agent may not be re-used. The cooking oil or fat must cool down before cleaning the frying or deep frying appliances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"footable_parent_2833\" class=\"footable_parent ninja_table_wrapper
