6 Kgs Dry Powder Fire Extinguisher

A 6kg dry powder fire extinguisher is another type of fire extinguisher commonly used in commercial and industrial settings to combat fires. Like the 9kg dry powder fire extinguisher, it is also effective against fires that involve flammable liquids, gases, and electrical equipment.

The 6kg size indicates the weight of the extinguisher when it is fully charged and contains the dry powder fire extinguishing agent. These types of fire extinguishers are typically stored in easily accessible locations in buildings and facilities, and they are designed to be operated by a single person.

If you need to use a 6kg dry powder fire extinguisher in an emergency, you should first assess whether it is safe to do so. Remember the acronym “PASS” – Pull the pin, Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep the nozzle from side to side. Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire, not the flames, and sweep it from side to side until the fire is extinguished.
