Hello, in light of your questions, we will continue to provide brief information about fire extinguishers. In this article, let's get to know the fire extinguisher...
When we pick up a fire extinguisher, what are the parts on it and what are their purposes?
Fire extinguishers consisting of a body, trigger and manometer should be filled with the extinguishing chemical substance selected according to the fire class and pressurized with nitrogen propellant gas. The clock-shaped piece on the trigger, which we call a manometer, shows us the status of the nitrogen propellant gas in the tube. It is the mechanism that allows the tube to work when we press the trigger and to stop when we release it. The first filling date and expiration date of the tube should be under the labels on the body. There is a hose on the tubes starting from 4 kg. Thanks to this material, we have the chance to intervene in the fire remotely. Fire extinguishers are used until the chemical extinguishing substance in them runs out at the time of the incident and when it runs out, it is left lying down on the ground. This means that those who come for intervention later should not waste time trying to operate the empty tube.
In our next article, we will find answers to questions such as what the manometer on the tube should be like, can the tube be stored for reuse after being used once, what are the body and powder warranties?
Please stay tuned...
