Description
This Amerex fire extinguisher features a red painted metal cylinder designed for use on Class A, B, and C fires. The assembly includes a black flexible discharge hose, a silver-tone metal handle and operating lever, and a safety pin secured with a white plastic tamper seal. A pressure gauge is mounted near the handle, with the needle currently positioned in the green zone to indicate a full charge. The cylinder body bears a large instructional label with pictograms for fire classes A (trash, wood, paper), B (liquids), and C (electrical equipment). A diamond-shaped logo located on the lower portion of the cylinder contains the printed text AMEREX. Attached to the handle is a service tag from Shapiro Fire Protection Co. of Warminster, PA, which identifies the unit as being serviced for ABC (Dry Chem) use with the year 2025 prominently displayed.
