Will a Fire Extinguisher Explode If Left in a Car?

[SanMason]

A fire extinguisher placed inside a car will not explode. Here are some precautions for vehicle fire extinguishers: 1. Purchase fire extinguishers produced by reputable manufacturers to prevent potential accidents from the source. 2. After six months of use, regularly check whether the dry powder has clumped or if the carbon dioxide gas in the storage cylinder has leaked. The method is as follows: the internal pressure indicator on the fire extinguisher is usually divided into three zones—green, yellow, and red. If the pointer is in the green zone, it means the extinguisher can be used normally; if it is in the yellow zone, it indicates the extinguisher is nearing the end of its service life; if the pointer points to the red zone, it means the internal pressure has leaked and the extinguisher cannot be used. 3. Check whether the safety pin of the extinguisher is intact, whether the cylinder is deformed or corroded, and whether the nozzle is clogged with oil or dirt.
