In the Transcarpathian region told how during the fire to beat the flames with a fire extinguisher?
If You have a home or any other place there was a fire, you should immediately call 101 and call the fire division. But there are times when you can try yourself to extinguish the flames’I – while the fire has not acquired large scale. For this we need to know how to use primary fire extinguishing means, in particular fire extinguishers. Should pam’to remember that fire extinguishers come in different types: 1) by way of actuation – automatic – stationary mounted in places of possible occurrence of fire, it ’ s manual (driven by man) – are located in specially designed locations; 2) depending on battery extinguishant – carbon dioxide, – Penn, – powder, – water, – combined; 3) the volume of the body – manual sedan with a trunk size up to 5 l, – industrial manual with the enclosure volume of 5 to 10 l, – stationary and mobile with enclosure volume of over 10 liters. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers can be applied for almost all kinds of fires. The principle of their action — displacing the oxygen with carbon dioxide. As a means of suppression in these fire extinguishers have gas, they are not very efficient to use in large rooms where there is a draught. But due to the fact that this extinguisher is not polluting, it is best suited for fire sensitive mechanisms and electrical appliances. Foam extinguishers are particularly effective when burning flammable liquids (industrial oils, fuels, paints). The foam covers burning liquid impermeable film, HC’annouce flammable evaporation and blocking the access of oxygen. However it is not necessary to apply foam to extinguish electrical appliances under voltage. Powder fire extinguishers prevent combustion by chemical means and is almost universal fire-fighting equipment. Liquid fire extinguishers are ideal for extinguishing paper, wood, plastics, rubbish or textiles. Fire power water in that it absorbs heat well. However, do not use water in case of burning flammable liquids. And since water is conductive, it is impossible to apply it and not a single fire extinguisher in which it is contained, to energized electrical equipment. In the event of a fire it is necessary to observe the basic rules of using a fire extinguisher: 1) get a fire extinguisher and approach the fire source; 2) pull the pin, which is located at the top of the fire extinguisher; 3) send the black cylinder of the fire extinguisher (the socket) on the burning object and press the handle; 4) to direct a jet at the center of the fire and turn the fire extinguisher from side to side. During operation and storage of the device is prohibited: – to prevent the emergence on the device any damage; – kicking the balloon; – to use the fire extinguisher if it has a manufacturing defect or malfunction of the locking mechanism; – on your own to recharge and to disassemble the apparatus; – to use the device for purposes that do not stand’associated with fire suppression; – during the liquidation of the fire to direct the fire extinguisher at anyone.
