4. Types of Fires
Green Fire Safety Services

5. Class A
Class A Extinguishers will put
out fires in ordinary
combustibles, such as wood and
paper. The numerical rating for
this class of fire extinguisher
refers to the amount of water
the fire extinguisher holds and
the amount of fire it will
extinguish Used on Wood,
Paper, Plastic
Class A Fires
Green Fire Safety Services

6. Class B
Class B Extinguishers should
be used on fires involving
flammable liquids, such as
grease, gasoline, oil, etc. The
numerical rating for this class of
fire extinguisher states the
approximate number of square
feet of a flammable liquid fire
that a non-expert person can
expect to extinguish Used on
Flammable Liquid Fires

7. Class C
Class C Extinguishers are
suitable for use on
electrically energized fires.
This class of fire
extinguishers does not have
a numerical rating. The
presence of the letter “C”
indicates that the
extinguishing agent is nonconductive. Used on
Electrical Fires

9. Water Co2 Type Fire
Extinguisher(A Class)
Water Fire Extinguishers are good for
tackling fires involving burning paper, wood and soft
furnishing (Class A fires), as the water soaks into the
materials and cools them, while extinguishing the fire.
This type of extinguisher does not contain harmful
chemicals but has a low fire fighting rating. Due to this
water fire extinguishers are usually large and heavy to
overcome their lack in fire fighting power. It is also
important to remember that water is an electrolyte and
conducts electricity. Care must therefore be taken with
regards to accidental use on exposed power cables.
However, both the weight and the conductivity problems
can be overcome by using water extinguishers with
environmentally friendly additives. Water extinguishers
with additives have a higher fire fighting rating which,
therefore, allows the use of smaller and lighter
extinguishers. Neither do they conduct electricity. As they
are mostly free of harmful substances, water fire
extinguishers are especially suitable in households where
children have access to the extinguishers and an
accidental discharge is possible.

10. Mechanical Foam Type Fire
Extinguisher(A&B.Class)
Mechanical Foam
Fire Extinguishers, also called AFFF
FOAM (Aqueous Film Forming Foam)
create a smothering film of foam over the
fire, which starves the fire of oxygen. The
foam also penetrates porous materials and
cools the fire through evaporation of the
water content in the foam. As the foam
creates a foam carpet on burning liquids
like petrol, foam extinguishers are also
suitable for flammable liquids and areas
where man-made fibres in soft furnishings
and carpets might liquidise under the
influence of heat. Foam extinguishers are
safe for use with electrical equipment,
although the electrical equipment will be
seriously damaged by the liquid. MAke
sure to select a foam extinguisher that has
been conductivity tested.

12. CO2 Type Fire Extinguisher
(B&C. Class Gas)
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
Fire Extinguishers contain only pressurised CO2 gas
and therefore leave no residue. This type of extinguisher
is suitable for use on fires involving burning liquids
(Class B fires), but is also a good solution for quenching
fires involving computer equipment and other electrical
appliances, as it does not cause damage to the electrical
items and does not cause the system to short circuit. It is
important to remember that when using CO2
extinguishers there is a possibility that once the
smothering CO2 gas has floated away the fire may reignite if the source of the fire is not removed (eg
switching off the power supply) or if the materials are still
very hot. Please be aware that CO2 extinguishers that are
not fitted with double-lined swivel horns may cause your
fingers to freeze to the horn during the deployment of the
extinguisher. Always select CO2 extinguishers with frostfree horns. CO2 extinguishers are NOT suitable for deep
fat fryers, as the strong jet from the extinguisher carries
the burning fat out of the fryer and into the room!

13. ABC Type Fire Extinguisher
(AB&C.Class)
What do the A B C ratings mean
on Fire Extinguishers?
FE Rating - A“A” TRASH–WOOD–PAPER Fire
extinguishers with a Class A rating are effective against
fires involving paper, wood, textiles, and plastics. FE
rating - B“B” LIQUIDS Fire extinguishers with a Class B
rating are effective against flammable liquid fires. These
can be fires where cooking liquids, oil, gasoline,
kerosene, or paint have become ignited. FE rating - C“C”
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT Fire extinguishers with a
Class C rating are suitable for fires in “live” electrical
equipment. Fire Extinguisher Ratings Fire extinguishers
are classified by fire type. The A, B, C rating system
defines the kinds of burning materials each fire
extinguisher is designed to fight. The number in front of
the A, B, or C indicates the rating size of fire the unit can
extinguish. To achieve a Class “A” rating, the
extinguisher must be capable of putting out the wood crib,
wood panel and excelsior (shredded paper) tests. Ratings
are based on the size of the material that can be repeatedly
exiting….

14. Clean Agent Type Fire
Extinguisher
Multipurpose Clean Agent Fire Extinguishers
Clean Agents - an overview "Clean
Agents" are Hydro Chloro Fluoro Carbons
discharged as a rapidly evaporating liquid,
which leaves no residue. It effectively
extinguishes Class A, B, C Electrical fires
by cooling and smothering and does not
conduct electricity back to the operator.
The clean agent is pressurized with
nitrogen gas and is an EPA and FAA
approved HCFC blend B agent approved
for use on Class A, B and C fires. CLEAN
AGENTS are intended for use in areas
formerly protected by Halon 1211 hand
portable extinguishers such as computer
rooms, telecommunications facilities, lean
rooms, data storage areas, offices (for
protection of sensitive electronic
equipment), boats and vehicles.

15. Aim
Aim at the base of
the fire.
If you aim at the
flames, the
extinguishing agent
will fly right through
and do no good. You
want to hit the fuel.
