Proportioners
Proportioners of any type may be used by following the same general guidance
provided for in using eductors. Again, proportioners and nozzles must have compatible
flow rates.
Hand Held Extinguishers
PYROCAP B-136™ at 6 percent concentration is used with stored-pressure
extinguishers for Classes A, B, and D fires. Straight stream nozzles perform
satisfactorily with all fire types. The firefighter may wish to “fan” the stream by placing
a finger into the stream at the nozzle.
Charging Hand Held Extinguishers
Refilling PYROCAP B-136™ for a 6 percent solution in a 2-1/2 gallon extin-
guisher should begin with the water portion approximately 300 oz. (15 parts), followed
by 20 oz. (1 part) of PYROCAP B-136™. The water should precede PYROCAP B-
136™ as the opposite procedure causes foaming, making proper measurement and han-
dling inefficient.
NOTE: USE ONLY PRESSURIZED EXTINGUISHERS WITH AIR.
