Saturn Class K Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers effectively suppress high-temperature fires involving oils and grease. These units are ideal for commercial restaurant applications as a portable supplement to pre-engineered suppression systems.

A low-pH potassium acetate solution discharges as a fine mist, providing excellent range while preventing splashing and creating an effective saponification foam blanket to suppress liquid cooking media fires. The unique cooling properties deliver exceptional heat absorption, ensuring the fire remains out.
