The Specialist Powder Extinguisher range, including the L2 & M28 Extinguishers are specifically designed to tackle Class D fire risks (combustible metals).
Class D fires are fires that involve combustible metals such as magnesium, lithium, titanium and sodium. These fires are very dangerous and can be difficult to extinguish. Common types of fire extinguishers are not suitable and therefore a specialist powder fire extinguisher is required.
These will be required in locations such as scientific labs or where manufacturing processes involve the risk of metal fires. For example, aluminium dust or swarf can catch fire, so any process involving cutting, drilling or milling aluminium holds potential risk.
