Which Type of Car Fire Extinguisher is Better?
1 Answers
Due to the less-than-ideal storage conditions for fire extinguishers in vehicles, it is recommended to choose either a dry powder fire extinguisher or a water-based fire extinguisher. According to national regulations, the minimum filling capacity for vehicle fire extinguishers is one kilogram. When purchasing a vehicle fire extinguisher, it is sufficient to choose one with a capacity of 1-3 kilograms. Below are the instructions for using a dry powder fire extinguisher: 1. Before use, shake the extinguisher thoroughly several times to ensure the dry powder inside is loosened. 2. Remove the safety pin, hold the nozzle with your hand (or support the bottom of the bottle if it is a tubeless fire extinguisher), and aim the nozzle at the base of the flame. 3. Press the handle of the extinguisher firmly, and the dry powder will be discharged from the nozzle.
