Description
A trolley-mounted CO₂ fire extinguisher is a high-capacity fire suppression system designed for large-scale or high-risk environments. It is particularly effective for combating Class B (flammable liquids) and Class C (electrical) fires. Mounted on a wheeled trolley, it is easy to transport, making it ideal for industrial and commercial facilities where fires may require higher volumes of extinguishing agent.
Available Variants
25 KG, 50 KG
Key Features:
Fire Class Effectiveness:
- Effective against Class B fires (flammable liquids like oil, paint, varnishes).
- Safe for Class C fires (electrical equipment), as it is non-conductive and leaves no residue.
High Capacity:
- Typically comes in capacities ranging from 25 kg to 50 kg, offering extended discharge duration for larger fires.
Construction:
- Cylinder made from 18 SWG mild steel (MS) sheet, designed to handle high pressures and resist corrosion.
- Mounted on a sturdy trolley with durable wheels for ease of transport.
Discharge Performance:
- Jet range: 4 to 6 meters, allowing for safe firefighting from a distance.
- Discharge duration: 50 to 100 seconds, depending on the capacity.
Pressure Handling:
- Tested at 350 psi to ensure safety and reliability during use.
Flexible Hose and Horn:
- Equipped with a flexible discharge hose and horn for precise application, even in hard-to-reach areas.
Refillable and Reusable:
- Can be refilled after use, ensuring long-term cost-efficiency and sustainability.
Applications:
- Industrial Plants: For safeguarding large-scale operations involving flammable liquids and gases.
- Power Plants and Substations: Ideal for protecting electrical equipment and installations.
- Aircraft Hangars and Docks: Essential for fires involving fuel and machinery.
- Warehouses: Suitable for areas with significant fire loads.
- Marine Vessels: Provides fire protection for engine rooms and other critical spaces.
How to Use:
- Transport the Extinguisher: Move the trolley to the fire site using the handle.
- Unlock the Safety Pin: Remove the safety pin or seal to activate the extinguisher.
- Aim at the Base of the Fire: Direct the discharge horn toward the base of the flames.
- Squeeze the Valve Lever: Open the valve to release CO₂.
- Sweep Side to Side: Move the horn side to side across the fire until the flames are extinguished.
The trolley-mounted CO₂ fire extinguisher is a powerful and efficient firefighting tool, offering mobility, high capacity, and reliability for tackling large or complex fire scenarios. Its robust design and effectiveness make it a critical safety asset in industrial and high-risk environments.
