The Best Fire117


Bonex has developed and launched a series of throw - type fire extinguisher s in fighting initial fire’s . Fire117 (A.K.A.SAT119 in other Asian) is a patented product suitable for Class A fire (combustibles such as papers, wood and plastics etc.). 

Chemical Safety (Environmental Friendly)
The extinguishing liquid is of weak alkalinity. It is made of food additives and it uses the most ideal, safe surface-active agents which are authorized as national and officially approved items. The extinguishing agent could be thrown away as sewage and it is harmless to the environment. 

BOD (Biochemical oxygen demand) – 93mg/L
COD (Chemical oxygen demand) – 730mg/L
Use 6% dilution with ultra-pure water as a sample for test.
This test report was issued by Chemicals Evaluation & Research Institute, Japan.

The carbonic gas and ammonium gas are very effective in the early stage of fire. The numerical value of carbonic gas and ammonia gas is lower than the permissible figures, permitted by Labor Safety Standard, Japan. The gas smells a little of ammonia, but it is harmless on human body.
CO2 produced - 4000ppm
(Labor Safety Standard is 15000ppm within 15mins –STEL)
Ammonium Gas produced – 20ppm
(Labor Safety Standard is 35ppm within 15mins-STEL)
Measure after extinguishing 30 seconds, in a 8m3, by KITAGAWA model detector tube

Why is SAT119 so effective?
When ampoule is thrown at the fires the chemical will disperse over the burning area. At the same time, the extinguishing chemicals would generate ammonium gas. Water evaporation would cool down the temperature of combustibles (cooling effectiveness) while ammonium gas would create a fire retardation effect that restrains the burning chain reaction. At the same time, one of the main ingredients for SAT119 and carbon dioxide produced by heat would suffocate oxygen and restrain combustibles from burning (cutting oxygen).


poses a potential fire hazard (for instant cooking stove) otherwise you would not be able to grab it in time.

How to use?
There are two ways to extinguish a fire using SAT119

1. Throw directly
Simply throw the ampoule at the fire so that it shatters and the solution is showered over the burning area.
2. Dilute with water
Splash the diluted extinguishing agent at the base of fire. It is very effective to prevent outbreak or spread of fire particularly to adjoining unit or on wide area. The diluted extinguishing agent cannot be preserved for long hours.
