Engine 53 arrived and called for a haz mat response. Engine 52, haz mat 52, and chief 53 were dispatched. Hazmat team member Hickey suggested that we test the substance in the cylinder. The cylinder was from a hood and duct fire extinguishing system. The material inside was a purple powder. The label on the cylinder said that the extinguishing agent was purple K. One member was put in full protective clothing and a SCBA. We had him put two wet Ph paper strips in the powder and read the results. The Ph paper read 10. I tried to find any information on purple K using the haz mat truck library and computer. I could find no information. I then called Firesafe Fire & Safety Equipment at 206-622-6265 and talked to Wendy. I told her of the situation and asked her if they had a MSDS sheet on purple K which they could fax us. Within 5 minutes we had a copy. The MSDS sheet stated that the material was mainly potassium bicarbonate. Which is a moderate base. We based our conclusion that the material in the vessle was purple K because of the container label, material color, material texture, and the information in the MSDS sheet. We called the D.O.E. to get their opinion. They told us that the would pick it up tomowwrow. Only because the owner might not dispose of it properly. We then covered the top of the container with plastic and duct tape, placed it in a heavy yellow plastic bag sealed with duct tape, and placed it next to fire station 53.
