Types of Fire Extinguisher and Their Uses 

As an ex-chef I'd recommend simply a lid or damp (but not dripping) wooden chopping board for putting out fatty fires, remain calm too as a pan of oil will burn for hours without exploding on it's own, it's only when people knock it over or chuck water on that things quickly get out of control ;o)

One of the shortest and best explanations I have seen so far 👏🏽

Excellent information and presentation in the use of fire extinguishers

Very relaxing voice that makes me understand so fast. Thank's !

Its very informatory & useful for common people who does not know about types of fire ext and where should be used. Very nice efforts.

This is very useful especially when dealing with Dangerous Goods per IMDG

Learned something - I never thought that the Carbon Dioxide was cold! Thanks guys! (and gals!)

Good explanation. kudos to you guys

We have an old CO2 one in the kitchen dates 1993. I just gave it a quick test and seems to be in working order. A good thing to have in the house, for sure. Luckily we've never needed to use it.

Great video thanks. Only vaporising foam green one and you got it all covered

very good information about the colour for identification, thanks

Thanks for very useful information! I've use it for safety training I'll perform for my personnel.

Good explanation... THIS Should help me with my Cscs test :) THANKS

Hi Luke, see our video that focuses specifically on Co2 Extinguishers - Applications and Advantages of CO2 Fire Extinguishers

Beautifully present thanks for upload

its great experience because i learn how we can refill abc type fire extinguishers and co2.

Thanks,very usefull video and helps to give my lesson on types of fire extinguishers

good information thanks

this very useful for everybody

about the CO2 ones, the main reason why it should be used putting out electrical fires is not because it wont damage the electronics its because it won't short circuit the live wires present in it. thats why putting it out with water is often a death sentence to some people.

This is my favorite safety out fit

great vedio thaks

No such thing as vaporising foam, green fire extinguishers (Halon) had to be replaced by 2003, but most stopped back in the last century Chubb stopped in 1990

I'm a big proponent of Amerex and Ansul fire extinguishers above all others. But I'll admit the UK extinguishers have a certain aesthetic appeal to them.

Can you use Powder Canisters for Home use I.e. Kitchen?

Thanks a lot

Informative

which ones to buy. so many choices.

why would anyone thumb this down?

A dry chemical version will be safe for A,B,C,D and electrical fire but it's a quite rare powder extinguisher so best to install m28 and a powder if you can't find a dry chemical extinguisher after all they aren't easy to find

What you don’t say is that the British Standards Institute has not recommended dry powder inside buildings since 2012 without a specific risk assessment due the potential loss of vision, potential breathing difficulties and the collateral damage that it causes to everything in the area of discharge. I still see these extinguishers installed in buildings by fire extinguisher companies that have no idea.

one thing, i can understand all of the fire extinguisher types but in the UK fire classes are different than the USA

Hi there - I am Offshore Aviation Advisor for the Oil and Gas Industry. Thought Process Aviation Services has been contracted to develop a Safety Awareness Video for new individuals joining the Oil and Gas Industry. Will it be possible to use some of the EKT Interactive videos in this Training Program? Thank you for considering this request (full recognition will be provided)

Cool

how about those white boat fire extinguishers?

I got a blue one

If the Foam type is water based how come we can use it on oil? I mean if you mix hot oil and water is a disaster

I never understand why ppl say Co2 won't damage on electrical fires. The fire has already damaged it. So chose the type of extinguisher that's the most effective in putting it out lol

best

Too be honest i think 5he layman would be a bit confused about which one to use on what fires as they all seem to double up on what they can be used for!

nice!

What about the one with the white identification label?

Remember when you discharge a carbon dioxide extinguisher don't hold the horn. You will get a horrible cold burn and you will know about it. My friend learned this the hard way.

"You can stop a fire in a room by sucking all the air out of a room!" "A technology can be is built into a room or a building like an emergency vacuum system , in case of fire, that can suck all the air out of a room ( example the room where there is fire). By sucking all the air out of a room you have gotten rid of the air in the room and therefore the fire disappears. " "This technology also requires that all people and all living organisms exit/leave the room so that room can be closed shut when fire starts in the room.: When the room is closed shut it is air tight (example: door and other things like windows close and form an air tight seal so that no air can get out of room). Once the air tight doors and windows close the special ventilation holes in floor of room (example similar to ventilation holes in the floor) turn on and suck all the air out of the room very quickly." "Example: "If all the air is sucked out of the room that is burning in 1 minute...then the fire stops after 1 minute." "If all the air is sucked out the room that is burning in 30 seconds...then the fire stops after 30 seconds." "Remember the Fire Triangle:" "To have fire you need these 3 things/ingredients:" "Source of heat (example spark like in a gas oven where a spark ignites fire in oven)" = " the thing that starts the fire" "Material that burns (example paper)" "Air ( example oxygen)"...= "the thing that keeps the fire to contiue burning" "Fire depends on oxygen to keep going >,..So by getting rid of the air in a room the fire will disappear" "The fire in the room disappears because you have removed oxygen from the room. Oxygen is one of the key ingredients why a fire keeps on burning...So if you remove or get rid of oxygen in room by sucking all the air out of the room you remove/get rid of the fire."

How much at Kung saan location..

👌

co2 is good

00:36 oooother

It would be more usefull to people to see a chart that advises which colour extinguisher is good for which fire.This video is more confusing than anything else.

nic

❤️

You forgot about halotron and halon.

Which one of those tastes like salt because I stole one from school and accidentally got it in my mouth and back and it feels weird

That's why there's fire because of lighters.

so yes the co2 gas will avoid damage to computers but its burnt by the fire

That'd cool! If you have inquiry of fire extinguisher, welcome to contact me

Kfc use wet checimal

Those hands are sweaty
