What type of fire extinguisher should be kept in a car?
1 Answers
Dry powder fire extinguishers should be kept in cars. The main types of vehicle fire extinguishers on the market include: dry powder fire extinguishers, ultra-fine dry powder fire extinguishers, carbon dioxide fire extinguishers, and water-based fire extinguishers. Vehicle fire extinguishers are specifically designed for car fires and fall into two main categories: non-pressurized suspension-type ultra-fine dry powder automatic fire extinguishing devices for vehicles, and pressurized suspension-type ultra-fine dry powder automatic fire extinguishing devices for compact cars. Dry powder fire extinguishers operate on the principle of chemical suppression, interrupting the chain reaction of combustion. They offer high fire extinguishing ratings, comprehensive functionality, rapid extinguishing capabilities, electrical insulation properties, and good performance in low-temperature conditions, making them particularly suitable for use in factories, warehouses, and outdoor settings.
