Introduction to water-based fire extinguishers and how to use them
December 05, 2023
1. Water-based fire extinguishers emerged in the 1980s and have a physical fire extinguishing mechanism. The agent can form and expand a thin water film on the surface of combustible materials to isolate the combustible materials from the air and achieve fire extinguishing. Through the atomizing nozzle, fine water mist is sprayed out, which spreads over the fire field and evaporates heat, quickly reducing the temperature of the fire field, and at the same time reducing the concentration of oxygen in the air in the combustion zone to prevent re-ignition. Good re-ignition resistance is an unparalleled advantage of water-based fire extinguishers.
2. In addition to fire extinguishing, water-based fire extinguishers can also be used for self-rescue in fire scenes. When a fire breaks out, spray the agent in a water-based
Fire Extinguisher on your body and apply it on your head to completely protect yourself from flame damage in ordinary fires and minimize burns in high-temperature fires.
3. The water-based fire extinguisher does not need to be inverted when used. It has a long validity period, is resistant to re-ignition, and has double fire extinguishing. It will not pollute the surface of the body after extinguishing the fire. It is less corrosive and is suitable for more sophisticated instruments and equipment.
