Best for Classes of Fire: A, B, C, E, F
These water mist extinguishers feature a unique design, incorporating a supersonic nozzle that generates a microscopic mist curtain. :
This mist curtain helps reduce oxygen levels around the fire. Water mist fire extinguishers are a safe choice for tackling burning electrical equipment because the de-ionized water mist does not conduct electricity, and it does not create puddles that could pose an electrocution risk.
Water mist is an innovative firefighting method where deionized water which is in the extinguisher is propelled through a series of mesh layers within the nozzle of the extinguisher, producing water droplets that is discharged as a fine mist rather than a jet or a spray. The purpose of this is that, because it’s coming out as tiny droplets, it’s a much greater surface area.
Water mist extinguishers work by discharging a fine spray of water droplets, which helps to cool the surrounding air and remove heat from the fire. They can also reduce oxygen levels around the fire, suppressing combustion.
Water mist extinguishers are versatile and can be used on Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (gas) fires, and also fires involving electrical equipment. Some models are also effective on Class F (cooking oil and fat) fires.

Water mist extinguishers are generally effective and versatile. They provide a cooling effect and can suppress various types of fires. However, their effectiveness may vary depending on the specific circumstances of the fire.
Yes, water mist extinguishers can be used outdoors. However, their effectiveness may be influenced by factors such as wind, which can disperse the mist. It’s essential to consider environmental conditions when using these extinguishers outdoors.
Water mist extinguishers may not be as effective on certain flammable metals and deep-seated fires. Additionally, their range is limited compared to some other types of fire extinguishers.
No, water mist extinguishers do not leave a chemical residue, making them suitable for use in environments where cleanup is a concern.
Regular maintenance is crucial. Ensure that the pressure gauge is in the green zone, inspect for any physical damage, and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for periodic servicing.
Depending on the fire risk, water mist extinguishers can be used in conjunction with other types of extinguishers. However, it’s important to understand the compatibility and limitations of each extinguishing agent.
Store water mist fire extinguishers in a dry and easily accessible location, following the manufacturer’s recommendations. Ensure that they are protected from extreme temperatures and environmental conditions.
