FIRE EXTINGUISHER CLASSIFICATIONS

It’s important to understand how fire extinguishers are classified in order to choose the correct model. BRK Brands, Inc. offers a wide range of residential, marine, commercial, and automotive fire extinguishers to meet the needs of your customers.

This Fire Extinguisher

TRASH–WOOD–PAPER

Fire extinguishers with a Class A rating are effective against fires involving paper, wood, textiles, and plastics. The primary chemical used to fight these fires is monoammonium phosphate, because of its ability to smother fires in these types of materials.

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. Two commonly used chemicals are effective in fighting these types of fires. Monoammonium phosphate effectively smothers the fire, while sodium bicarbonate induces a chemical reaction which extinguishes the fire.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

Fire extinguishers with a Class C rating are suitable for fires in “live” electrical equipment. Both monoammonium phosphate and sodium bicarbonate are commonly used to fight this type of fire because of their nonconductive properties.

The First Alert 32565 is a versatile and advanced smoke and carbon monoxide detector that combines reliability with innovative technology to enhance home safety. Designed for the modern home, this device offers several features that ensure it efficiently protects occupants from the dangers of smoke and carbon monoxide.

The photoelectric sensor excels in detecting larger smoke particles, while the ionization sensor is sensitive to smaller particles, ensuring that the device can respond appropriately in various fire scenarios.

The device is designed for easy installation, often allowing users to install it in minutes without the need for professional help.

For added convenience, the First Alert 32565 comes with a test/silence button, allowing users to easily test the unit’s functionality or temporarily silence false alarms. Regular maintenance is made simple with its safe battery replacement indicators and end-of-life signal, which alerts users when it’s time to replace the unit to ensure continued protection.

In this age of smart technology, the First Alert 32565 also offers an optional connection to smart home systems that allow for remote monitoring and alerts through a mobile app, providing peace of mind for homeowners even when they are away from their residence.
