Product Description
Ansul Plus-Fifty C™ is used to combat fires involving flammable liquids, gases and greases (Class B) including such fires when involved with energized electrical equipment (Class C). Pound for pound, Plus-Fifty C™ is twice as effective in extinguisher applications as carbon dioxide. Specific applications include the protection of commercial food preparation equipment such as fryers, griddles, and range hoods as well as textile machinery. The 400 lb drum is Ansul part # 9393.
Plus-Fifty-C™ is a sodium bicarbonate-based substance containing additives to make it free flowing, water repellant, non-abrasive and, when used as a fire extinguishing agent, produce no toxic effects. This agent is colored bluish-white to differentiate it from other dry chemical agents. Post-fire cleanup can be readily accomplished with a vacuum cleaner or a broom and dust pan. Caution: Never mix Plus-Fifty C™ with phosphate-based dry chemicals. A chemical reaction will take place that is harmful to the extinguisher.
The shipping weight of the drums is 420 pounds (191 kg) and there are 4 drums per pallet. Given the heavy weight, a fixed shipping charge of $100 per container will be applied to your order at checkout which is valid only for ground shipment within the lower 48 US states.
