This fire extinguisher is made of non-ferrous materials (brass, aluminium or stainless steel) to make it non-magnetic. It is indispensable for hospitals, radiological laboratories, and wherever ferrous materials can cause interference to electrical equipment.
Available models: kg 2 e kg 5.
COMPONENTS:
TANK
The tank is sized for a working pressure of 51.7 bar at 20° C. The CO2 tanks are made of 116061T6 Aluminium and tested at 212 bar. The quality of the fire extinguisher is guaranteed both by the suppliers adhesion to the ISO 9000 quality production system, and by the conformity declaration that is issued together with the supply of the materials. All tanks are painted with RAL 3000 Red polyurethane epoxy powder resistant to atmospheric agents and ultraviolet rays.
CYLINDRICAL PUSH BUTTON VALVE M25X2
The valve is built with non-ferrous materials (brass) to make it non-magnetic and is complete with a safety disc calibrated at 185±15bar. Equipped with a safety seal to improve visual control at a distance: a single glance is enough to check if the appliance has been tampered with. The valve is complete with an aluminium dip tube.
HORN
The polypropylene dielectric horn complete with brass nozzle is a device that allows the gasification of the extinguishing agent, allowing the jet to immediately suffocate the fire. The built-in handle isolates it from frost and electrostatic charges.
HOSE
Rubber hose with reinforcing mesh in flexible steel braid and brass fittings. Its length allows the operator to use the fire extinguisher at a safe distance from the fire.
EXTINGUISHING AGENT
CO2, or carbon dioxide, extinguishing agent. It is a colourless and odourless gas, weighting about one and a half times more than air. Carbon dioxide does not stain, wet or damage in any way the materials with which it comes in contact. One kg of liquid CO2 develops, at atmospheric pressure, a volume of gas equal to 510 lt. The CO2 used if fire extinguishers has a degree of purity equal to 99% and it is humidity-free. The extinguishing action of carbon dioxide is twofold, as it acts by suffocation by removing oxygen form the air, and by intense cooling caused by the rapid expansion of the gas.
