Fire Extinguisher
A fire extinguisher is an active fire protection device used to extinguish or control
small fires, often in emergency situations. It is not intended for use on an
out-of-control fire, such as one which has reached the ceiling, endangers the
user (i.e., no escape route, smoke, explosion hazard, etc.), or otherwise
requires the expertise of a fire brigade. Typically, a fire
extinguisher consists of a hand-held cylindrical pressure vessel
containing an agent that can be discharged to extinguish a fire. Fire
extinguishers manufactured with non-cylindrical pressure vessels also exist but
are less common.
CO2 FIRE EXTINGUISHER
CO2 fire extinguishers are ideal for places with a lot of electrical equipment such as offices or server rooms because they are safe to use on fires involving electrical apparatus. Carbon dioxide extinguishers do not leave any residue, unlike a foam extinguisher. They can also be used on Class B fires, those involving flammable liquids such paraffin or petrol. CO2 extinguishers work by smothering the fire and cutting off the supply of air.

PORTABLE CO2
FIRE EXTINGUISHER
• Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers
• Fires involving equipment such as computers, or generators (‘electrical’ fires)
• Fires involving some flammable liquids, such as petrol, diesel, and paint (‘class B’ fires)
Don’t use for
• Cooking fires involving oil and grease, such as chip pan fires (‘class F’ fires)
HOW TO IDENTIFY A CO2 FIRE EXTINGUISHER:
• BLACK coloured label stating ‘CO2’
• The nozzle ends in a distinctive black ‘horn’
• Should be identified by an extinguisher ID sign fixed nearby – ‘CO2 Extinguisher’
HOW CO2 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK:
CO2 fire extinguishers discharge CO2 gas, also known as carbon dioxide. This is stored in the extinguisher as a liquid, and the gas is created under pressure when the handle of the extinguisher is squeezed. This causes the CO2 gas to emerge at great speed, which is why CO2 fire extinguishers are not recommended for chip pan fires – they could literally blast the flames into flames into the surrounding areas.
Unlike
water and foam extinguishers, CO2 fire extinguishers
do not work by cooling the fire and so are ineffective on fires involving
flammable solids.
Instead,
CO2 extinguisher work by replacing the oxygen surrounding the flames with
carbon dioxide, meaning the fire can no longer burn.
