Checkfire FX-LI-003-MCF Lithium-ion Battery Fire Extinguisher - 3 Litre
Checkfire FX-LI-003-MCF Lithium-ion Battery Fire Extinguisher - 3 LitreAs the world evolves the way we live evolves. Which means fire safety measures need to be one step ahead of new risks always. With statistics showing lithium-ion battery fires having quadrupled in number since 2020 the CheckFire team has been working behind the scenes on an important range of fire extinguishers specifically designed to tackle the unique dangers posed by lithium-ion battery fires.The LFX range has been specifically designed to tackle lithium-ion battery fires across a wide range of applications.In addition to primary fire risks the LFX fluorine-free range of fire extinguishers also protect from secondary A-class fires that have been caused by the exploding batteries.Part of The Green Range this three-litre fire extinguisher is completely fluorine-free and fiercely tackles the unique risks of lithium-ion battery fires.Suitable for devices up to 300Wh ratings our compact yet high-performing fire extinguisher is ideal for environments with mobile phones and laptops such as schools offices or repair stores workshops using cordless drills and homes where items such as smart tablets are in use.Using a water-based agent that discharges as an endothermic foam LFX quickly breaks down the chain reaction in thermal runaway and cools the temperature of the batteries absorbing significantly more heat than water alone. It also protects from secondary A-class fires extinguishing any peripheral fires potentially caused by exploding batteries.With the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005 now recognising that lithium-ion batteries need to be considered in all fire risk assessments in the UK there has never been a better time to stock up on this innovative solution and stay prepared.Key FeaturesAgent LFX Capacity litres 3Fire performance Pending - 13AWorking pressure bar 20C 15Maximum service pressure PS bar 20Temperature range C 5 to 60Discharge time secs 20C 25 - 30Cylinder Lined Steel
