• Cartridges in cartridge operated extinguishers contain carbon dioxide.
• The aerospray formula now contains no monoethylene glycol. Extinguishers purchased before July 2002, unless refilled by Chubb after that date, may contain (less than 3%) monoethylene glycol.
• Low freeze additive can be included in most water or foam extinguishers for outdoor use. It must NOT be used in Purafoam, or in EB3, EH30 or EH60 hydrospray extinguishers. The extinguisher should have a stick-on label to say that LFA has been added.

Datasheets not included here are available for the media contained in our specialist and non-standard extinguishers as follows
