How CO₂ Works:
CO₂ works by displacing oxygen, which is crucial for combustion. It creates a blanket of gas that reduces the oxygen concentration around the fire, suppressing the flames.
No Residue:
One notable advantage of CO₂ fire extinguishers is that they leave no residue after discharge. This is beneficial, especially in environments where cleanup or residue could be problematic.
Limited Cooling Effect:
While CO₂ is effective for Class B and Class C fires, it has a limited cooling effect compared to other extinguishing agents like water or foam. This means it might not be as effective on fires involving solid combustibles (Class A fires).
High-Pressure Discharge:
CO₂ fire extinguishers discharge the extinguishing agent at a high pressure, allowing for a more forceful and targeted application.
Use in Confined Spaces:
CO₂ is suitable for use in confined spaces because it does not leave behind a lingering cloud or residue, making it easier for individuals to navigate and assess the situation after extinguishing the fire.
Discharge Duration:
The discharge duration of CO₂ fire extinguishers is relatively short. Users should be trained to act quickly and efficiently during operation.
Risk of Frostbite:
CO₂ is stored as a pressurized gas in the extinguisher, and during discharge, it expands rapidly, causing extreme cold. Users need to be cautious about the risk of frostbite when handling the discharge horn.
Not for Outdoor Use:
CO₂ fire extinguishers are less effective in outdoor or windy conditions because the gas can disperse quickly. They are more suitable for indoor use.
