A class B fire is one containing a flammable liquid ( grease , gasoline etc). The third type is a class C which is an electrical fire.

   How to tell the differences between each type of  fire extinguisher.  A class A water fire extinguisher is usually a stainless steel canister with a pressure gauge on it.  A class B fire extinguisher is a CO2 pressurized canister without a pressure gauge. A Class C fire extinguisher
is a dry chemical canister with a pressure gauge.  The majority of extinguishers sold are  type ABC, meaning they are good for  all types of fire.  You can find a complete line of fire extinguishers and cabinets manufactured by JL Industries at our EBuilding Products on line store.
