Never apply water to a Class D fire, unless you add 3% F-500 Encapsulator Agent. The F-500 EA prevents the water from separating into explosive hydrogen and oxygen. The F-500 EA molecules form a protective skin around the water droplets and rapidly absorb the heat. ...

Last week, we shared a video showing the new TKO Nozzle (Turbo Knockdown and Overhaul) extinguishing a car fire using only a few ounces of F-500 Encapsulator Agent in about ten seconds. Think about how you could use this nozzle for rapid deployment using a 1 ½” hand...

We call it a “TKO Nozzle,” short for Turbo Knockdown and Overhaul nozzle. Two liters of F-500 Encapsulator Agent is attached to the nozzle for rapid attack on intermediate sized fires. Two models are available with 20 gpm (75 liters/minute) and 35 gpm (130...

Watch this video and you’ll just have to say, “I wish everything I own worked as well as F-500 Encapsulator Agent at extinguishing fires.” Faster extinguishment means less exposure to carcinogens, less water and agent used, less drafting, less diking, reduced fatigue,...

Never apply water or foam to Class D fires, but if you add just 3% F-500 Encapsulator Agent to the water, you change the way the droplets react with heat. A plain water drop inefficiently removes heat by steam conversion. F-500 EA droplets efficiently absorb the heat...

We’ve told you how effective F-500 Encapsulator Agent is on Class A, Class B (polar and nonpolar), Class D and three-dimensional fires. So, doesn’t it make a lot of sense to use a 2.5 gallon F-500 EA Fire Extinguisher for smaller fires? This extinguisher has...
