CO₂ Type Fire Extinguisher A CO₂ Type Fire Extinguisher is a highly effective fire safety device specially designed to combat Class B and Class C fires, including fires involving flammable liquids and electrical equipment. These extinguishers are widely used in offices, data centers, server rooms, laboratories, factories, and commercial spaces where electrical hazards are present. Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) works by displacing oxygen around the fire, effectively suffocating the flames and stopping combustion. Unlike powder or foam extinguishers, CO₂ extinguishers leave no residue, making them ideal for protecting sensitive electrical and electronic equipment such as computers, control panels, switchboards, and machinery. CO₂ fire extinguishers are typically made with a seamless steel cylinder, painted red as per fire safety standards, and fitted with a discharge horn made of high-impact plastic. When discharged, CO₂ expands rapidly, cooling the fire and cutting off the oxygen supply. Due to its non-conductive nature, it is completely safe for use on live electrical fires. These extinguishers are available in various capacities such as 2 kg, 4.5 kg, and 6.5 kg, making them suitable for both small and large fire risks. CO₂ fire extinguishers require minimal maintenance and have a long service life when regularly inspected and serviced as per statutory fire safety norms. The CO₂ Type Fire Extinguisher is an essential component of any comprehensive fire protection system. Its fast action, clean operation, and effectiveness against electrical and flammable liquid fires make it a preferred choice across industries. Installing CO₂ extinguishers enhances workplace safety, ensures regulatory compliance, and helps protect valuable assets from fire-related damage.
