Fire Extinguishers

Eastern Fire extinguishers are approved to British Standards BSEN3 and carry Kite Marks. They are designed to be user friendly and easy to maintain. Our standard range includes:-

• WATER, the most commonly used extinguishant for Class A fires only, involving carbonaceous materials such as wood, paper, textiles. Water extinguishes fires by cooling the fire, removing the heat needed to sustain combustion and preventing remaining embers from re-igniting.
• ABC dry powder extinguishers are extremely efficient on class 'A' fires they are also used on class 'B' and class 'C' fires (Gaseous). (There is no test to determine class 'C' fires specified in BS EN 3). In addition they can also be used on live electrical equipment.
• AFFF Foam extinguishers for use on Class A fires as above and Class B fires involving flammable liquids such as petrol, diesel, oils, etc.
• CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2) is used on class 'B' fires. It can be safely used on live electrical equipment. CO2 is extensively used throughout the food industry for its cleanliness in application.
• WET CHEMICAL portable extinguishers are specifically designed for use on Class F fires e.g. deep fat fryer.

We can supply special powder extinguishers for Class D fires involving metals.

We have a fully equipped workshop with all fire extinguishers supplied and maintained by trained technicians. Extinguisher technicians are fully qualified in BSi Accreditation & BAFE Approved Examinations to QSP 94001.
