Fireboy® offers five (5) and eleven
(11) pound portable fire extinguishers that are the first
clean-agent systems in the world to receive U.S. Coast Guard
approval.
A unique feature of these portable
fire extinguishers is super pressurization using Argon gas that
enables a user to stand as far as ten feet away from a fire.
Applied directly to engines, it causes
no cold shock as with carbon dioxide extinguishers and thus will not
damage the engine or component parts.
Upon release, the agent turns
instantly into a "heavier than air" gas. As such, it tends to settle
and remain in an enclosed space such as an engine compartment.
Wherever a flammable liquid hazard
exists onboard a vessel or in a boatyard or marina, Fireboy®
portable fire extinguishers should be readily available.
UL listed.
Unlike dry chemical systems, these
portable extinguishers leave no
residue whatsoever.
