Summary
The Commander Contempo CX-PWD-006-DSS is a 6kg ABC dry powder fire extinguisher that combines broad multi-class fire protection with the striking highly polished stainless steel finish of the Contempo range. Suitable for Class A (combustible materials), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (flammable gases) fires, it is one of the most versatile extinguishers available — making it an excellent all-round choice for a wide variety of commercial and public environments.
Where most dry powder extinguishers are purely functional in appearance, the Contempo range was designed with aesthetics in mind. The polished stainless steel body and matching stainless steel handle allow this extinguisher to sit comfortably within premium interiors — from luxury hotels and contemporary offices to modern bars, restaurants, and car showrooms — without detracting from the surrounding design.
Manufactured to BS EN3 and CE marked, the CX-PWD-006-DSS delivers a fire rating of 34A 233B C and is pressurised with nitrogen for reliable, consistent performance. Every component carries the same corrosion-resistant construction as the rest of the Contempo range, ensuring durability across a wide operating temperature range of -20°C to +60°C. Backed by a 5-year warranty with a full range of spare parts available.

FAQs
What fires is the CX-PWD-006-DSS suitable for?
This extinguisher is rated for Class A fires involving combustible solids such as wood, paper, and textiles; Class B fires involving flammable liquids; and Class C fires involving flammable gases. This broad coverage makes it one of the most versatile extinguisher types available and a strong all-round choice for many commercial premises.
What extinguishing agent does this extinguisher use?
The CX-PWD-006-DSS uses ABC 40 dry powder, pressurised with nitrogen. Dry powder is highly effective across multiple fire classes but does leave a residue after discharge. It is best suited to environments where this is manageable, or where the priority is broad fire class coverage rather than residue-free suppression.
Why choose the Contempo range over a standard red powder extinguisher?
The Contempo range is designed for locations where fire safety equipment must complement, rather than compromise, carefully considered interiors. The highly polished stainless steel finish makes the CX-PWD-006-DSS suitable for display in premium environments — luxury hotels, contemporary offices, bars, restaurants, and showrooms — while meeting all the same fire safety standards as a conventional unit.
What standard is this extinguisher manufactured to?
The CX-PWD-006-DSS is manufactured to BS EN3 and is CE marked, confirming compliance with the applicable European standard for portable fire extinguishers. CE marking is a minimum legal requirement for fire extinguishers distributed in the UK and Europe.
What is the fire rating of this extinguisher?
The CX-PWD-006-DSS carries a fire rating of 34A 233B C, reflecting its suitability for Class A, B, and C fires and its high extinguishing performance within those categories.
What warranty is provided?
The CX-PWD-006-DSS is backed by a 5-year warranty. A full range of spare parts is also available to support long-term serviceability and compliance with routine fire safety maintenance requirements.
