Clean, Fast, and Effective: The CO2 Fire Extinguisher

Guardian of Your Valuables: Precision Fire Suppression for Sensitive Environments

When fire strikes, every second counts, and the wrong extinguishing agent can cause more damage than the fire itself. Our CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) Fire Extinguisher is specifically engineered to provide rapid, clean, and highly effective fire suppression for Class B (flammable liquids and gases) and Class C (electrical) fires, without leaving behind any damaging residue.

Ideal for protecting critical assets, sensitive electronics, and high-value equipment, the CO2 extinguisher safely extinguishes fires by displacing oxygen and rapidly cooling the fuel source. It's the ultimate choice for environments where cleanliness and the prevention of collateral damage are paramount.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Clean Agent Technology: Discharges pure carbon dioxide gas that dissipates completely into the atmosphere after use. Leaves no powder, foam, or liquid residue, eliminating the need for costly cleanup and preventing damage to delicate machinery, electronics, and valuable documents.
• Non-Conductive & Safe for Electrical Fires (Class C): CO2 is a non-conductive gas, making it the safest and most effective solution for extinguishing fires involving live electrical equipment without the risk of electrical shock or short-circuits.
• Effective on Flammable Liquids & Gases (Class B): Rapidly suffocates fires involving gasoline, oil, paints, solvents, and other flammable liquids or gases by cutting off the oxygen supply.
• Rapid Fire Suppression: The high-pressure discharge quickly smothers flames, minimizing fire spread and potential damage.
• Durable, High-Quality Construction:
  • Seamless Aluminum Cylinder: Lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and built to withstand high internal pressures.
  • Heavy-Duty Brass Valve: Ensures reliable operation and prevents leakage.
  • Robust Steel Handle & Lever: Designed for ergonomic grip and easy activation.
  • Non-Conductive Discharge Horn: Directs the CO2 stream accurately and safely, while protecting the user from cold burns.
• User-Friendly Operation: Features a simple pull-pin and squeeze-lever mechanism for quick and intuitive use in emergencies.
• Refillable & Serviceable: Designed for professional recharging and maintenance, ensuring a long service life and continued readiness.
• Environmentally Responsible: CO2 is a naturally occurring gas, and while its release should be managed, it does not contain ozone-depleting chemicals.

Ideal Applications:

The CO2 Fire Extinguisher is indispensable for a wide range of critical environments, including:

• Data Centers & Server Rooms: Protects invaluable servers, networking equipment, and infrastructure from fire damage.
• Laboratories & Clean Rooms: Safely extinguishes fires without contaminating sensitive experiments or sterile environments.
• Office Buildings: Perfect for areas with computers, electrical panels, and general office electronics.
• Manufacturing Facilities: Essential for protecting machinery, control panels, and areas with flammable liquids.
• Commercial Kitchens: Effective against electrical fires and grease fires (provided they are contained and not involving deep fat fryers directly where other agents like Class K might be preferred).
• Hospitals & Medical Facilities: Safeguards sensitive medical equipment and ensures patient safety.
• Garages & Workshops: Ideal for vehicle maintenance areas, electrical workshops, and spaces with flammable liquids.
• Art Galleries & Museums: Protects priceless artifacts and exhibits from fire and extinguishing agent damage.

How It Works:

Our CO2 Fire Extinguisher contains pressurized liquid carbon dioxide. When discharged, the CO2 rapidly expands into a gas, displacing the oxygen around the fire and effectively suffocating the flames. Simultaneously, the extremely cold gas helps to cool the burning materials, further aiding in suppression.

Safety & Maintenance Information:

• Ventilation is Key: Always ensure adequate ventilation when using a CO2 extinguisher, especially in confined spaces, as CO2 can displace oxygen and pose a risk of asphyxiation.
• Beware of Cold Burn: The discharge horn becomes extremely cold during use. Avoid direct skin contact to prevent frostbite.
• Not for Class A Fires: CO2 is not recommended for Class A (ordinary combustible) fires (wood, paper, textiles) as it can dissipate quickly, allowing the fire to re-ignite.
• Regular Inspections: Extinguishers should be inspected monthly (visually) and professionally serviced annually in accordance with local fire codes and NFPA 10 standards.
• Professional Recharging: Only trained professionals should recharge CO2 extinguishers.
