THE SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY OF F-500 ENCAPSULATOR AGENT
F-500 EA is a high-performance, multi-application and multi-class extinguishing agent with three-dimensional firefighting capabilities. It is completely fluorine-free (contains no PFOA or PFOS), 100% biodegradable, & non-hazardous with a 15-year shelf life. Rapidly cools a fire and the surrounding structures, with the ability to absorb 6 to 10 times more heat energy than plain water.
Surface Tension Reduction
- Able to spread rapidly over fuel area and penetrate surfaces quickly
- Smaller droplets i.e. more surface area per volume of water
Rapid Cooling
- Thermally conducts heat into internal portion of water droplets
- Absorbs 6 to 10 times more heat through steam conversion
Fuel Encapsulation & Neutralization
- Formation of micelles around hydrocarbon fuel molecules
- Effectively surrounds & permanently neutralizes fuel & vapors
Interrupts Radical Chain Reaction
- Inhibits free radical chain reactions with fuel sources, resulting in easier fire extinguishment and coalescing of smoke & soot.
F-500 EA vs FIRE TETRAHEDRON
F-500EA Encapsulates fuel vapor by forming micelles to simultaneously attack the fuel, heat and free radical legs of fire tetrahedron – resulting in rapid knockdown and extinguishment of fire, whilst minimizing smoke & soot.

EFFECTIVE AGAINST MULTIPLE FIRE CLASSES
Ordinary Combustibles
- cULus listed for Class A fires.
- Excellent for structure, car, tire, plastics, coal and paper fires.
Flammable Liquids & Gases
- cULus listed for Class B fires.
- Excellent for all polar solvents (Gasoline, diesel fuel, heating oil, jet fuel) and all nonpolar solvents (Ethanol and ethanol-blended fuels).
Combustible Metals
- Rapidly removes the extreme heat from combustible metals and will not cause explosion.
- Unsurpassed for extinguishing car fires involving magnesium components.
Lithium-Ion Batteries
- 3% F-500 EA was tested and recommended by Con Edison for transformer fires.
- 3% F-500 EA was tested and recommended by Bosch, Daimler, Dekra and Deutsch ACCUmotive in Germany for Li-ion electric car fires.
