These extinguishers are powered by a wet concentrate of "ACHUK" - Achuk is the latest, patented fire extinguishing composition to eliminate fires. It is a sustainable solution for firefighting that has been extensively researched and tried. Achuk acts on all three aspects of the fire triangle instantly and thus raise the standards of fire elimination.

Achuk can be used in wet as well as dry form. The wet form works on Class “A” fire, whereas the dry form works on Class “B” and Lithium Battery Fire.

Asan extinguishers top in performance with highest in class (BIS) rating of 3A and discharge time of more than 50 seconds for its 6 Litre extinguisher.

  • Instant extinguishment
  • Protect people and assets
  • Safest for firefighters
  • Harmless to the environment and everyone
  • Effective for fires Upto 1100°C
  • Retards smoke and rekindling of the fire
  • Improves visibility
  • Saves water

Asan water-based extinguishers ensure long term fire safety and come with a promise of long-term performance. After each use extinguishers need refilling.

Asan water-based extinguisher is a water-based composition, formulated to deliver the best performance on class A fires, however big or small.

There are no side effects of using Asan water-based extinguisher. It is totally safe for people and the environment.

Yes, there is no known damaging impact on the environment. It is safe for air, water and earth.

Asan water-based extinguisher composition has a very long 10 years shelf life. In fact, it doesn't ever cease to perform.

A clean agent is any type of fire extinguishing agent that is electrically non-conductive, volatile, or gaseous, and that does not leave a residue upon evaporation. Clean agent fire suppression systems make use of inert gas or chemical that is stored in a container and discharged when a fire is detected.

This type of fire extinguishing agent gets its name, “clean”, from the fact that it doesn't leave a residue, but also because most clean agents are significantly more environmentally friendly than other options.

A fire can only occur when three elements are present: heat, oxygen, and a fuel source. If one element is not present or is blocked, the fire will be extinguished. Clean agents eliminate either the heat or the oxygen elements to extinguish the fire.

HFC 236FA, HFC 227EA, FK 5-1-12, HCFC 123 etc.

Clean Agents work on All Classes of fire namely "A - Solids", "B- Liquids", "C-Gaseous", & "E-Electrical" fire.

Safety: Clean agents are non-toxic and non-corrosive. This means they're safe to be used in environments where people are present.

No Associated Damage: Since clean agent fire suppression systems don't use water or powders, they don't cause any damage. They're safe to use in applications with sensitive technology, electronics, and high-value assets.

No Clean-up: Clean agents don't leave a residue. That means that after your system discharges, you don't have to worry about extensive clean-up.

Minimal Downtime: With no damage and no clean-up, it's easy for you to get your business back on track.

Fast Acting: Clean agent systems actuate in seconds. Since they extinguish fires effectively, most fire damage should be limited to a small area.

Clean agents are available as products like portable fire extinguishers, modular fire extinguishers and in systems like Total Flooding System and Tube-based Flooding system which is meant for local flooding.

NASA products are equipped with patented leakproof valve technology which is of the only kind in the world. Coupled with this, the complete make of asan Clean Agent products is SS 304 which makes it more durable and efficient for a longer period.

NASA only uses UL Listed Clean agents in its products and systems.

The discharged liquid is the NASA Clean Agent. The clean agent used in the NASA Semi-Automatic Extinguisher is a colourless agent that looks like water in its liquid form. It evaporates rapidly at room temperature without leaving any residue.

This indicates that the pressure gauge needle is stuck. It needs servicing/repair. Please approach the authorized service centre.

This indicates that the extinguisher has been operated or tampered with it. The warranty is now void.

There is no need for concern. This merely indicates that the valve-return mechanism has got jammed. NASA Semi-Automatic Extinguishers do not rely on the spring pressure as a functional mechanism of the valve. The leak-proof characteristics of the NASA Valve are fully functional even if you close the valve manually. Cleaning the valve springs with some solvent should restore the auto-return functionality of the valve. If the problem persists, contact the Authorized dealer.

This situation could arise if there is any obstruction in the outlet section of the extinguisher. With the valve in the closed position, try to clean up the nozzles of the extinguisher. After cleaning, perform one stroke of the valve to check it. If there is discharge, then the cleaning has been successful, and the extinguisher is ready to use.
