Instructions / Assembly

MODEL B570 contains a special blended Sodium Chloride-based dry powder extinguishing agent. Heat from the re causes it to
cake and form a crust excluding air and dissipating heat from burning metal. Metal res involving magnesium, sodium, potassium,
and sodium-potassium alloys can be successfully extinguished with this extinguisher. There is data showing that zirconium, uranium,
titanium, and powdered aluminum res can be controlled and extinguished with this unique extinguisher.

MODEL C571 contains a copper extinguishing agent specially developed by the U.S. Navy for ghting lithium and lithium alloy res.
The copper compound smothers the re and provides an excellent heat sink for dissipating heat. Copper powder has been found
to be superior to all other known re extinguishing agents for lithium metal res. Not recommended for lithium-ion battery res.

The Amerex soft ow” extension applicator is particularly suited for ghting Class D res. It allows the operator to stand away
from the extreme heat and toxic fumes caused by burning material. The easily controlled, even discharge provides a non-dispersing
application of the agent. The extension applicator may be quickly detached to provide a straight stream of chemical where greater
range is required.

Due to the density of copper, extra agent is added to achieve 30 lbs.
of agent discharge at a 45º angle. The actual extinguishing agent
weight–when fully charged is 41½ lbs.
