Wheeled Fire Extinguishers

Whether you're protecting oil rigs, airports, petrochemical plants or manufacturing facilities, our wheeled fire extinguishers provide the rapid response and extended discharge times that can make the difference between a contained incident and a devastating blaze.

What makes wheeled fire extinguishers effective for Class B fires?

A class B fire extinguisher in wheeled format offers unmatched capability for tackling flammable liquid fires. Class B fires involve flammable liquids such as petrol, oil, paint, and solvents, making them more prevalent in industrial settings. Our wheeled fire extinguisher units contain between 45kg and 135 litres of extinguishing agent, providing discharge times of up to 200 seconds with ranges extending to 15 metres. This extended capacity enables you to maintain continuous fire suppression while emergency services arrive, providing you with precious time to evacuate personnel and protect valuable equipment.

Which wheeled fire extinguisher types handle Class B fires?

Our range includes two main types of class B fire extinguishers in a wheeled format. Dry powder extinguishers tackle Class B and C fires, plus they're safe around electrical equipment. CO2 extinguishers are designed for Class B fires involving live electrical equipment, leaving no residue after discharge.

Why choose wheeled fire extinguishers for high-risk locations?

Wheeled fire extinguishers are typically installed on ships, airports, oil rigs, helicopter decks, petrochemical plants, oil refineries and large warehouses or factories. Their mobility allows single-person operation while providing industrial-scale firefighting capabilities. The reinforced hoses extend up to 6 metres, letting you maintain safe distances from hazardous fires. All units are fully CE marked, with many compliant with EN1866-1 and MED 2014/90/EU approved for marine installations.

How much protection do wheeled class B fire extinguishers provide?

Our wheeled class B fire extinguisher models deliver impressive fire ratings. The 50kg powder units provide 144B ratings for flammable liquid fires. The robust construction includes heavy-duty internal and external coatings for corrosion resistance.

Can wheeled fire extinguishers handle electrical fires alongside Class B incidents?

Modern industrial fires often involve multiple hazards. Our wheeled powder extinguishers handle Class B flammable liquids and Class C gas fires, plus they're safe around live electrical equipment. BC dry powder extinguishers have been tested and approved for use on and around live electrical equipment. This multi-class capability means you don't need separate extinguishers for different fire types in your facility.

Are wheeled fire extinguishers ready for immediate use?

All our wheeled fire extinguishers are fully charged at the factory and arrive ready for installation. We supply them with comprehensive documentation, including CE marking certificates and marine approvals where applicable. The wheeled design means rapid deployment without requiring lifting equipment, and the reinforced hoses store compactly on the unit.
