What are the methods of using portable fire extinguishers?
If the fire occurs indoors and in a relatively closed environment, the portable dry powder fire extinguisher should be taken out immediately, and the operator should master the fire extinguisher by carrying or carrying the fire extinguisher to the fire site. Before putting out the fire, the operator should know the distance between the fire extinguisher and the flame. Generally speaking, the fire extinguisher should be sprayed 5 meters away from the flame, not too close. Too close may hurt yourself or too far away. The possibility of extinguishing fire is too small.
In addition to controlling the distance, attention should also be paid to the specific methods during operation. When opening the gas cylinder, the operator shall operate according to the design type of fire extinguisher. If it is a handwheel type, it should be unscrewed in the opposite direction and need to be rotated to the high position. In addition, hold the spray gun and spray it directly into the place with strong flame. In addition, if the portable dry powder fire extinguisher is set as a pressure storage design, the safety pin should be pulled out when it is opened, and the open fire should be pressed at the same time.
