The SF-ABC680 stands apart from lighter-duty alternatives with its 6-A:80-B:C rating, 235 PSI operating pressure, and extended 10–15 ft. discharge range — providing greater standoff distance and suppression capacity than 5 lb. units. Its U.S.C.G. approval and compatibility with both wall and vehicle/marine mounting brackets make it one of the most versatile options in the Strike First ABC series, suitable for a wider range of deployment scenarios than wall-only models.
Key Features & Benefits
Modified Universal Valve Body
The modified universal valve body accepts both pin and fork wall hooks, giving contractors flexibility in how and where the extinguisher is mounted. This reduces the need to source separate hardware for different installation environments.
Steel Cylinder with Super Durable Polyester Powder Paint Finish
The steel cylinder is finished with a super durable polyester powder paint coating that provides superior corrosion resistance. This is critical on job sites where extinguishers are exposed to moisture, chemicals, and rough handling over extended periods.
Waterproof Stainless Steel Gauge
The waterproof stainless steel pressure gauge maintains readability and accuracy in wet or outdoor conditions. Contractors can perform quick visual pressure checks without concern for gauge degradation from exposure.
Reinforced Full-Grip Hardcoat Anodized Aluminum Handle
The handle is reinforced and features a full-grip hardcoat anodized aluminum construction for durability and secure handling under stress. A firm, reliable grip is essential when operating an extinguisher in an emergency situation.
Oversized Pull Pin with Retaining Strap
The oversized pull pin with retaining strap is designed for easier and faster activation, reducing fumbling time in an emergency. Faster deployment can be critical in the first moments of a fire event.
Color and Bar Coded Labels
Color and bar coded labels support accurate service and inspection tracking. This simplifies compliance recordkeeping for contractors and facility managers required to maintain fire equipment service logs under NFPA 10.
Wide Operating Temperature Range
Rated from -65°F to 120°F (-54°C to 49°C), the SF-ABC680 remains operational across extreme temperature conditions. This makes it suitable for cold-climate job sites, unheated storage facilities, and hot industrial environments alike.
90% MAP Dry Chemical Agent
The extinguisher uses 90% mono ammonium phosphate (MAP) powder, a highly effective multi-purpose agent that works on Class A, B, and C fires. This single-agent coverage eliminates the need to stock multiple extinguisher types for mixed-hazard environments.
Common Applications
Construction Job Sites
Job sites present simultaneous Class A (wood, paper), Class B (fuel, solvents), and Class C (electrical tools, panels) hazards, making the SF-ABC680's multi-class rating well suited for general site fire protection.
Commercial and Industrial Facilities
Warehouses, manufacturing plants, and workshops with mixed fire risk profiles benefit from a single extinguisher capable of addressing wood, flammable liquid, and electrical equipment fires.
Vehicle and Marine Mounting
With U.S.C.G. approval and compatibility with vehicle/marine brackets, the SF-ABC680 is appropriate for installation in work trucks, heavy equipment cabs, and marine vessels.
Electrical Equipment Areas
The Class C rating makes this extinguisher appropriate for use near electrical panels, generators, and powered equipment where a non-conductive agent is required.
Flammable Liquid Storage and Handling Areas
The 80-B rating provides substantial suppression capacity for areas where fuels, solvents, or other flammable liquids are stored or used.
Compatible Materials
- Wood, paper, and cloth (Class A)
- Flammable liquids and gases, including fuels and solvents (Class B)
- Electrical equipment and energized wiring (Class C)
