Chubb’s range of dry chemical fire extinguishers includes ‘BE’, ‘ABE’, and Class ‘D’ metal fire extinguishers.

The ‘BE’ dry chemical fire extinguisher can be safely used on fires involving live electrical equipment or flammable liquids and cooking oil. The ‘ABE’ fire extinguisher is recommended for fires where wood, paper, flammable liquid or live electrical equipment are involved.

Metal fire extinguishers typically involve extremely high temperatures and are difficult to control. Standard liquid fire extinguishing agents cannot be safely used as they may cause an explosion. Chubb’s Class ‘D’ metal fire extinguishers contain a powder extinguishing agent that safely and effectively suppresses fire and prevents re-ignition.
