The CO₂ Fire Extinguisher 3 KG is a highly efficient fire safety device specifically designed to tackle fires involving flammable liquids (Class B) and electrical equipment. It uses carbon dioxide gas as the extinguishing agent, which works by displacing oxygen and suffocating the fire, thereby stopping the combustion process.
One of the major advantages of CO₂ extinguishers is that they are clean agents, meaning they leave no residue after discharge, making them ideal for sensitive environments such as server rooms, laboratories, offices, and electrical control panels.
The extinguisher consists of a high-pressure seamless steel cylinder filled with liquefied CO₂ gas. When activated, the gas expands rapidly and is discharged through a specially designed horn-shaped nozzle, allowing controlled and effective fire suppression.
This 3KG capacity model is compact yet powerful, typically offering a discharge time of around 8–12 seconds and a working temperature range of approximately -30°C to +60°C, making it suitable for diverse environmental conditions.
The extinguisher is commonly supplied with all necessary accessories, including:
- Discharge horn / nozzle
- Valve with safety pin & seal
- Wall mounting bracket
- Instruction label
CO₂ extinguishers are widely used in offices, data centers, power plants, workshops, and commercial buildings, especially where electrical hazards are present. However, they are not recommended for Class A fires (solid materials like wood or paper) as they do not provide cooling effect.
