General Information The F6Gi is a portable foam fire
extinguisher produced by Pii S.r.l. in a modern automated facility, ensuring high and consistent quality standards since 1992, certified by ISO 9001. The extinguisher is compliant with PED 97/23/CE, EN 3-7, and MED 96/98/CE standards. Components are sourced from reputable European manufacturers, and quality is maintained through rigorous checks in line with ISO 2859-1.
Extinguishing Agent
The extinguisher uses foam suitable for class A (wood, paper, fabrics) and class B (flammable liquids like petrol, oil, fat, and paints) fires. The foam forms a vapor-impermeable film over burning materials, providing a cooling effect due to its high water content.
Field of Use
Designed for industrial use, the F6Gi can be used on live electrical equipment up to 1000 V from a distance of 1 meter.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is recommended according to UNI 9994 standards. Using non-original parts or refills voids the extinguisher's approval. Annual checks by competent personnel are required, and refills should be done immediately after use.
