ABC Dry Chemical Powder G-CEN
 
DRY CHEMICAL POWDER ABC - G-CEN
 
Specification:
Fire Classes A B C
Main components fusible phosphates and ammonium sulphate
Color blue
Density  950 +/-50 g/l
Heat resistance -60 to +80 deg. C
G-CEN dry powder is a reliable dry chemical extinguishing agent, approved for the fire classes A, B and C. It is based upon fusible phosphates and ammonium sulphate.
 
The main effect of dry chemical extinguishing agents is the “anticatalytic” effect which proves a very rapid knock-down of the fire. The powder forms a melt on the burning solid, which inhibits the admission of oxygen. In gas flames, reaction chains are inhibited by radical particles formed by the powder.
 
G-CEN is an appropriate dry chemical agent for portable and wheeled extinguishers.
 
The flowability of the powder is maintained even after unsealed storage for 6 days in air at 80% humidity.
 
Tests have shown that there is no deterioration in flowability if the powder is shaken in a portable extinguisher for 24h at 25 m/sec2. The residue in the extinguisher after this operation is within the tolerance of DIN 14 406. 
 
The amount of extinguishant discharge in a given time depends a great deal upon the type and quality of the extinguishing appliance used.
 
Stored in an airtight container at temperatures between -60 and +80 deg. C, G-CEN is ready to use and remains effective for several years.
In the dry state there is no corrosive effect on metals. Due to the salt contents of extinguishing powder, residual powder should be carefully removed from metals, particularly if water was
 
G-CEN dry powder does not contain toxic ingredients. In contact with muscous membranes like the eyes there may be a slight irritation, which eases quickly.
G-CEN is free of heavy metals.  
Efficient at extinguishing:
fires of flammable solids - rubber - clothes - tyres etc.
fires of flammable liquids
fires of flammable gases
fires in dry electrical installations of up to 1000 V
