A cream fire extinguisher typically contains a mixture of water and foam concentrate, which is designed to combat Class A (solid combustibles) and Class B (flammable liquids) fires. The foam helps to smother the flames by forming a barrier that cuts off the fire's oxygen supply while also cooling the burning materials. The extinguisher is pressurized with air or nitrogen to allow for effective dispersal of the foam when activated. It is important to use a cream extinguisher only on appropriate fire classes, as it is not suitable for electrical or cooking oil fires.
