Carbon Dioxide Extinguishers - 20 lbs.

The Amerex Carbon Dioxide Extinguisher discharges carbon dioxide as a white cloud of “snow” that smothers fire by eliminating oxygen. It is electrically non-conductive and uses a clean, non-contaminating, odorless gas, making it effective for Class B flammable liquid fires and environments where residue is not acceptable.
