Certified 5kg CO2 fire extinguisher

5kg CO2 fire extinguisher, with wall bracket included.

CO2, or carbon dioxide, fire extinguishers are widely used to fight Class B (flammable liquids) and Class C (energized electrical equipment) fires. CO2 fights fire primarily in two ways:

1. Suffocation : The gas replaces the oxygen in the area of ​​the fire, hindering combustion.
2. Cooling : When released, CO2 undergoes rapid expansion and cools, helping to reduce the temperature at the source of the fire.

One of the great advantages of CO2 fire extinguishers is that, unlike other extinguishing agents such as chemical powder, CO2 leaves no residue. This is crucial in environments with sensitive equipment, such as computer servers, electrical panels, and offices with electronics.

Main Applications :

• Industries : Areas with a risk of fire from flammable liquids or with sensitive electronic equipment.
• Electrical Equipment : Servers, computers, electrical distribution panels.
• Residential areas : Kitchens with appliances or other areas with potential fire hazards.
• Transportation : Used in vehicles, buses, and even airplanes.
• Shops and Offices : For fire protection in spaces with a lot of electronic equipment.
• Schools and Educational Institutions : Fire protection in administrative areas and laboratories.
• Aviation : Fire safety on board aircraft.
• Garages and Parking Lots : Firefighting related to fuel or vehicles.

In short, CO2 fire extinguishers are essential in locations that require clean and rapid extinguishing, especially in environments with electricity and the risk of fires involving flammable liquids.
