- Ansul-A™ Municipal Class Fire Control Concentrate, 5 gallon (19 liter) pail
Product Description
ANSUL-A™ Municipal "Class A" Fire Control Concentrate is formulated using fluorine-free hydrocarbon surfactants to perform on Class A combustible materials typical in municipal applications. The ANSUL-A concentrate is designed for use between 0.1% and 1.0% in standard proportioning equipment.
Its low surface tension demonstrates the excellent wetting characteristics needed to efficiently combat Class A fires. This product is NOT suitable for use on any fuel with an appreciable water solubility (polar solvents) such as methyl and ethyl alcohol, acetone, and methyl ethyl ketone; it is not intended for use on Class B hydrocarbons. This Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) compatible concentrate can be used with both aspirating and non-aspirating discharge devices because of the low energy required to make it foam. ANSUL-A concentrate can also be used with dry chemical extinguishing agents without any regard to the order of application.
The minimum and maximum usable temperatures for the ANSUL-A concentrate with foam making equipment is 30 °F (–1.1 °C) to 120 °F (49 °C).
The Ansul part # for this product is 433442; full performance and technical specifications are available in the Ansul data sheet for this product. The Safety Data Sheet is also available.
