Amerex B570 (30 lbs.) Class D Sodium Chloride Fire Extinguisher

Specialized Class D Fire Protection for Combustible Metals

The Amerex B570 30 lb Class D Sodium Chloride Fire Extinguisher is specifically designed to combat combustible metal fires. Featuring a unique "soft flow" extension applicator, this specialized extinguisher keeps operators at a safe distance from extreme heat and toxic fumes while delivering effective fire suppression on burning metals that standard extinguishers cannot handle.

Why Choose the Amerex B570?

• Class D rated – Specifically designed for combustible metal fires that standard extinguishers cannot fight

• "Soft flow" extension applicator – Keeps operator at safe distance from extreme heat and toxic fumes
• Easily controlled application – Precise agent delivery prevents dangerous metal splatter
• Sodium chloride agent – Effective on a wide range of combustible metals
• Professional-grade construction – Built to industrial standards for demanding environments
• Amerex quality – Manufactured by a trusted leader in specialized fire protection equipment
• Rechargeable – Can be professionally serviced and recharged for long-term use

Ideal For:

Manufacturing facilities, metalworking shops, foundries, laboratories, research facilities, aerospace operations, and any industrial location working with combustible metals like magnesium, sodium, titanium, or potassium.

What It Protects Against:

• Class D: Combustible metal fires including magnesium, sodium, titanium, potassium, lithium, zirconium, and other reactive metals

Why Class D Extinguishers Are Critical:

Combustible metal fires are extremely dangerous and cannot be fought with standard ABC, BC, or CO2 extinguishers. Using water or standard dry chemical agents on burning metals can cause violent reactions, explosions, and rapid fire spread. Class D extinguishers use specialized agents designed to smother metal fires without causing dangerous reactions.

How the "Soft Flow" Applicator Works:

The extended applicator wand allows operators to maintain a safe distance from burning metals, which can reach temperatures exceeding 3,000°F and produce toxic fumes. The soft flow design gently applies the sodium chloride agent without disturbing the burning metal, preventing dangerous splatter and allowing the agent to form a protective crust that smothers the fire.

Key Features:

• 30 lb sodium chloride extinguishing agent
• Extended "soft flow" applicator wand
• Controlled, gentle agent application
• Effective on multiple combustible metals
• Professional-grade construction
• Clear Class D labeling and instructions

Important Safety Note: Class D fires require specialized training. Operators should be thoroughly trained on combustible metal fire hazards, proper extinguisher use, and emergency procedures. Never use water, ABC, BC, or CO2 extinguishers on combustible metal fires.

Regulatory Compliance: OSHA and NFPA regulations require Class D fire extinguishers in facilities that handle combustible metals. The Amerex B570 helps you meet these requirements and protect your workers and facility.

Professional Installation: Mount in accessible locations near areas where combustible metals are stored, processed, or used. Ensure all personnel are trained on proper use and understand the unique hazards of metal fires.
