Soda Acid Fire Extinguisher – VariEx (6L, 9L,)

A soda acid fire extinguisher is a pressure-type extinguisher that uses a chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and acid to produce CO₂ and water spray. It works well on Class A fires. So it is suitable for homes, offices, shops, and industrial areas. VariEx® extinguishers are ISI/BIS certified and available in several sizes. In addition, they are built with strong materials to ensure long-term safety.

How a Soda Acid Fire Extinguisher Works?

VariEx dry chemical powder fire extinguisher with packaging box – ISI certified portable extinguisher for workplace safety

Mechanism

A soda acid fire extinguisher uses a chemical reaction to create pressure and release a cooling, fire-smothering spray.

When activated, sodium bicarbonate reacts with sulfuric acid inside the extinguisher.
This reaction produces CO₂ gas, which builds pressure inside the cylinder.
The pressure forces out a water-based spray through the nozzle.
The cooling effect of water lowers the temperature of burning materials.
The CO₂ smothers the fire by reducing oxygen around the flames.
Ideal for Class A fires involving wood, paper, cloth, rubber, and other solid combustibles.
