      CO2 Type Fire Extinguisher: The Clean & Efficient Solution for Electrical & Flammable Liquid Fires

      Safeguard Your Critical Assets with Residue-Free Fire Suppression.

      When every second counts and the integrity of your equipment is paramount, our CO2 Type Fire Extinguisher offers rapid, clean, and effective suppression for Class B (flammable liquids) and Class C (electrical) fires. Designed to leave absolutely no harmful residue, it's the ideal choice for environments housing sensitive electronics, valuable machinery, and crucial data.

      🔥 Key Features & Benefits:

      • Residue-Free Extinguishing Agent: Employs 100% pure, non-contaminating Carbon Dioxide (CO2) gas, which evaporates completely after discharge, leaving no corrosive or damaging residue to clean up. Protects sensitive electronics, machinery, and documents.
      • Effective on Class B & C Fires: Specifically designed to combat:
        • Class B Fires: Flammable liquids like gasoline, oil, paints, solvents, and greases.
        • Class C Fires: Energized electrical equipment such as computers, servers, control panels, motors, and appliances.
      • Non-Conductive: CO2 is a non-conductive gas, making it safe for use on live electrical equipment without the risk of electrical shock.
      • Rapid Fire Knockdown: Works by displacing oxygen around the fire and rapidly cooling the fuel source, smothering the flames almost instantly.
      • Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-strength seamless steel cylinders, rigorously tested for integrity and reliability.
      • Easy to Operate: Features a simple, intuitive discharge mechanism with a comfortable grip handle and a distinctive discharge horn for precise application.
      • Visual Identification: Clearly labeled and identifiable with a red cylinder and specific CO2 markings, ensuring quick recognition during an emergency.
      • Mounting Bracket Included: Comes complete with a heavy-duty wall bracket for secure and accessible mounting in any facility.

      💡 Ideal Applications:

      • Data Centers & Server Rooms: Protects vital hardware without damaging electronic components.
      • Laboratories & Clean Rooms: Essential for environments where contamination must be avoided.
      • Electrical Control Panels & Switchgear: Safely extinguishes fires in live electrical equipment.
      • Manufacturing Facilities: For machinery with electrical components or where flammable liquids are present.
      • Commercial Kitchens: Ideal for electrical fires (not deep fat fryers, where a Class K extinguisher is needed).
      • Offices & Telecommunications Centers: Safeguards office equipment, computers, and communication systems.
      • Garages & Workshops: Effective against fires involving fuels, oils, and electrical tools.
      • Art Galleries & Museums: Protects invaluable artifacts and exhibits from extinguishing agent damage.

      Note: CO2 extinguishers do not typically feature a pressure gauge, as the agent is stored as a liquid and pressure varies with temperature. They are typically weighed to check their charge.

      ⚠️ Safety & Maintenance:

      • Ventilation is Key: Always ensure adequate ventilation after use, as CO2 displaces oxygen and can pose an asphyxiation risk in confined spaces.
      • Beware of Frostbite: The discharged CO2 is extremely cold. Avoid direct skin contact with the horn or discharged gas to prevent frostbite.
      • Training Recommended: Proper training on extinguisher use is always recommended for effective and safe operation.
      • Regular Inspections: Perform monthly visual checks and annual professional maintenance (hydrostatic testing every 5 years) as per local regulations and NFPA 10 standards.
      • Recharge After Use: All extinguishers must be professionally recharged immediately after any use, no matter how brief.

      Compliance & Certifications:

      • UL Listed: Independently tested and certified by Underwriters Laboratories for safety and performance.
      • NFPA 10 Compliant: Meets or exceeds all requirements set forth by the National Fire Protection Association's Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers.
      • ISO 9001 Manufactured: Produced under stringent quality management systems for consistent reliability.
