Phos-Chek LCE20-Fx - 5 Gal.
The new breed of fire retardant, PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx, combines outstanding performance with enhanced environmental properties. The PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx combines the convenience of a liquid for mixing and handling with the benefits of a gum-thickened retardant for airborne drops. In order to successfully target ground vegetation, PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx's elastic thickener increases coverage, wraparound, and canopy and ladder fuel penetration while decreasing drift and evaporation.
PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx fire retardant is a novel, 100% phosphate solution that delivers greater performance, product safety, and stability for simpler handling. By lowering total toxicity and disposal costs, the new recipe. A very visible Fugitive (Fx)-colored concentration is PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx. The fugitive color remains visible while being applied, but after being exposed to sunlight, it gradually vanishes.
For use in fixed-wing and single-engine air tankers, helicopter buckets, and ground engines, PHOS-CHEK LCE20-Fx fire retardant has been certified by the USDA Forest Service under the recently revised standard for Long Term Retardant, Wildland Firefighting: 5100-304d. The concentrate is kept in concentrate form and transported to the application location as a low-viscosity liquid. It is diluted and blended with water in-line when it is transported to the delivery system during application. LCE20-Fx is meant to fade with exposure to sunlight after application, however, it is highly effective with an aerial application and gives ultra-high visibility when dropped.
