Aviation Fire Extinguishers

Aviation fire extinguishers for airport ramps, fuel trucks, hangars and maintenance shops. NFPA 407 keeps ABC dry chemical away from aircraft fueling because its powder corrodes aircraft components, so ramp and fueling protection relies on Purple K dry chemical, with Halotron I clean agent where residue would damage avionics. NFPA 410 calls for a wheeled unit rated at least 80-B at each gate or stand.

Below you'll find wheeled and hand-portable Purple K units, Halotron I clean agent units and weather covers for wheeled units parked outdoors. For the full requirements by area, agent comparisons and training rules, read our guide to aviation fire extinguisher requirements.
