Heavy Fire Extinguisher For ABC Powder Karbondioksida FOAM
Understanding Heavy Fire Extinguishers - APAB
APAB actually has the same working principles as APAR or Light Fire Extinguishers. But APAB is intended for a wider area (50m) than just a kitchen or a narrow environment. Because of its size APAR has a size starting from 1 kg - 9 kg while APAB has a size from 20 kg - 100 kg. With a weight more than APAR, APAB is able to extinguish fires large enough. In its use APAB should be carried out by two or more people.
The content or media of APAB consists of Foam AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) and Dry Chemical Powder. APAB is generally also used to extinguish forest fires. With a lot of contents, APAB is able to help put out the fires that cause forest fires without damaging the soil and leaving residues.
The use of heavy fire extinguishers is very easy and simple. The 4 easy steps you can use to use a heavy trolley fire extinguisher are as follows:
1. Place the Trolley Fire Extinguisher about 50 meters from the location of the fire and the use of APAB is not too close to the source of the fire. Because it would be very dangerous if heavy fire extinguishers were close to the source of the fire.
2. Place the Heavy Fire Extinguisher in an upright condition not leaning to the right or left side and advancing forwards or backwards. The position of the APAB must be upright so that the APAB can function properly.
3. Pull the safety pin at the end of the heavy fire extinguisher. Usually the pin at the end of the T-shaped APAB is used to open the cartridge.
4. The last step you have to do is spread the hose and press the valve lever at the end of the hose. You can determine the voltage you will be using at moderate or full pressure. You can direct the hose at the source of the fire.
