What type of fire extinguisher is used for vehicles?
1 Answers
Vehicle fire extinguishers use dry powder or water-based types, and their storage environment temperature should be within the range of -10 to 45 degrees Celsius. The placement location should be kept dry and ventilated to prevent the fire extinguisher from becoming damp and corroding. Fire extinguishers are divided into: 1. Aerosol fire extinguishers; 2. Dry powder fire extinguishers; 3. Ultra-fine dry powder fire extinguishers; 4. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers; 5. Water-based fire extinguishers. The method of using a fire extinguisher is: 1. Bring the fire extinguisher to a location near the fire and stand on the upwind side of the fire; 2. Pull out the safety pin; 3. Hold the spray nozzle firmly with one hand; 4. Squeeze the handle tightly with the other hand; 5. Aim the nozzle at the base of the flames and sweep.
