The CO2 Fire Extinguishers labeled in black, are widely used for electrical fires and are commonly found in computer server rooms and general office use. They are also effective for extinguishing Class B (flammable liquid) fires.

CO2 fire extinguishers can safely be used on electrical fires because CO2 is non-conductive, and they do not leave any harmful residue. Blazequel offers a range of CO2 type extinguishers including 2kg, 3.5kg, and 5kg options.

Some key points to remember about using a CO2 Fire Extinguishers

  • Thermal Shock Caution: However, be cautious at very close ranges, especially with delicate PCBs, as the cold discharge temperature could cause ‘thermal shock.’
  • Handle with Care: CO2 extinguishers are pressurized at approximately 51 bar (740 psi). Damaging them can have severe consequences, so always handle them with respect.
  • Frost Burn: During discharge, the nozzle can become extremely cold and cause serious frost burns if touched. Keep your hands away from it.
  • Ventilation Matters: After use, ensure the area is well-ventilated. This allows the CO2 gas to disperse safely.
