Details

The Buckeye 20 lb Purple K Fire Extinguisher is a high-performance dry chemical unit charged with potassium bicarbonate, one of the most effective agents available for suppressing Class B flammable liquid and Class C electrical fires. Potassium bicarbonate outperforms standard sodium bicarbonate on flammable liquid hazards, making this extinguisher the preferred choice in military installations, oil and gas facilities, industrial fuel storage areas, and vehicle service centers where petroleum-based fire risks are a primary concern.

This unit features a heavy-duty brass valve, offering superior durability and resistance to wear compared to standard aluminum valve configurations — an important advantage in harsh, high-demand environments. The drawn steel cylinder is finished with a polyester epoxy powder coat and anodized metal surfaces for corrosion resistance. Operating at 195 psi, it delivers a 27-second discharge with a 15–21 ft range. The UL 120-B:C rating confirms proven suppression capacity on large flammable liquid fires. DOT and USCG approved, it meets compliance requirements for both road transport and marine applications. Operating temperature range is -65°F to 120°F.

The brass valve construction and stored pressure design make this extinguisher exceptionally reliable in demanding conditions where equipment failure is not an option. Barcoded labels simplify inspection and maintenance tracking, and the unit is fully rechargeable for long-term serviceability. For operations requiring the highest level of Class B and C protection with industrial-grade hardware, this Buckeye Purple K delivers the performance and durability professionals trust.
