Frequently Asked Questions

What is a fluorine-free foam extinguisher?
Fluorine-free foam (F3) extinguishers use a synthetic foaming agent that contains no PFOS, PFOA, or other PFAS compounds. PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are persistent chemicals that contaminate soil and waterways and are subject to increasing regulatory restrictions in Australia. F3 foam delivers similar fire suppression performance without these environmental risks.

Why choose fluorine-free over standard AFFF?
AFFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) contains PFAS chemicals that are now regulated or banned in many Australian states and industries. Fluorine-free foam is the compliant choice for facilities near waterways, organisations with environmental commitments, and industries such as defence, mining, and government where PFAS restrictions apply.

Can it handle fuel and flammable liquid fires?
Yes. This extinguisher is rated for Class B fires — flammable liquids including petrol, diesel, oil, and paints. It is also rated for Class A fires. It is not suitable for live electrical equipment (Class E) or cooking oil fires (Class F).

How often does it need to be serviced?
Every 6 months for inspection and annually for a full service by a licensed fire protection technician, as required by AS 1851. A maintenance test tag is included.

Does it come with a wall bracket?
Yes — a wall bracket and maintenance test tag are included as standard.
