Learn about the all-new LFX fire extinguisher range

At CheckFire, we’re passionate about bringing new innovative solutions to the fire trade: especially those that target fire risks in everyday life. Designed specifically for lithium-ion battery fires, our revolutionary CommanderEDGE LFX Lithium-Ion Battery Fire Extinguisher tackles the unique risks of lithium-ion battery fires.

How does LFX work?

Puts out flames

LFX is an effective water-based fire extinguishing agent that is excellent at putting out flames.

01

Absorbs heat, fast

It has remarkable heat-absorbing properties that break down the chain reaction in thermal runaway and prevent other cells from heating. It effectively cools cells that have already ignited as well as those that are in thermal runaway that have not yet exploded.

02

Protects from secondary fires

LFX also protects from secondary A-class fires, and this allows the fire extinguisher to quickly tackle ‘peripheral’ fires that have been caused by the exploding batteries.

03
