CO2 Fire Extinguisher

What is the Purpose of a CO2 Fire Extinguisher?

This product is great for fires caused by electricity that most commonly occur in offices, homes, and some production facilities. They are designed to remove oxygen from the mix, taking away fuel for the fire. They also give off a cold blast, removing heat from the fire.

Where Can This Product be Used?

A CO2 fire extinguisher can be used in offices, server rooms, and computer labs. Because CO2 is non-conductive, it helps to dissipate the fire caused by electric charge rather than spread it. This extinguisher also does not leave a residue behind which is great for use with expensive electronics. If the fire is put out quickly enough, there may not be much damage or necessary clean up at all.

Who Might Use This Product?

Large and small offices, electricians, and computer network collectives would find a CO2 fire extinguisher a necessary piece of safety equipment. Especially where electronics are involved, the sooner the fire is put out, the less damage there is to worry about.
