Co2 Fire Extinguishers
CO2 fire extinguishers are filled with carbon dioxide gas under high pressure. When the extinguisher is discharged, the CO2 gas expands and cools, forming a cloud of “snow” that smothers the fire. CO2 fire extinguishers are effective on Class B fires (flammable liquids) and Class C fires (electrical fires). They are not effective on Class A fires (wood, paper, etc.). CO2 fire extinguishers are safe to use on live electrical equipment, as the carbon dioxide gas is non-conductive. However, the cold temperature of the CO2 gas can cause frost damage to sensitive electronic equipment.
How to use a CO2 fire extinguisher
- Stand upwind of the fire and away from any electrical equipment.
- Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire and pull the pin.
- Squeeze the handle to discharge the CO2 gas.
- Sweep the extinguisher back and forth until the fire is extinguished.
- Never use a CO2 fire extinguisher on a fire that is larger than the extinguisher rating.
