Thomas Glover 4Kg ABC Dry Powder Fire Extinguisher 9318/00

The Powder Fire Extinguisher 4 KG (9309/00) from Thomas Glover is designed to discharge a steady stream of powder over the source of the flames, lowering the temperature of the burning material below the point of ignition.  The Powder Fire Extinguisher 4 KG (9309/00) from Thomas Glover is a stored pressure type powder fire extinguisher.  This means that the whole extinguisher is pressurised rather than using a gas catridge as with some of the older types of Powder Fire Extinguishers.

 

The Powder Fire Extinguisher 4 KG (9309/00) is designed to be used on category A, B & C fires.  This means that this Powder Fire Extinguisher is suitable to be used on flammable solid, flammable liquid and flammable gas fires.  This means that this Powder Fire Extinguisher is suitable to be used on combustable materials like wood, plastic and paper and flammable liquids like petrol and oils and flammable gases.

 

Powder Fire Extinguishers should never be used on Category D fires.  A powder fire extinguisher being used on these fires will not make these fires die down, but will infact make them larger.

 

Powder fire extinguishers should be installed in a easily accessible position on a wall with a powder fire extinguisher identification sign positioned above it (see related items below).
