Application
Powder fire extinguishers (PFE) are intended for extinguishing fires caused by the agents as follows:
- Solid substances (A),
- Flammable liquids (В),
- Flammable gas (C),
- Electrical equipment (Е).
Powder fire extinguishers are multi-use and low-value items. They are applicable for extinguishing fires occurred at manufacturing and flammable agent storage facilities, vehicles and public rooms.
But such extinguishers have some significant drawbacks – they are not intended for extinguishing powder-sensitive unit fires. Besides, the extinguisher locking device has rather complicated design and cylinder pressure should be continuously controlled.
As for the extinguisher rating, class A fires are not limited since Yarpozhinvest LLC currently uses ABC powders only (Vekson АВС-25 and Foscon 430 АВС).

Important Information
- A powder fire extinguisher locking device is fitted with a cylinder pressure control indicator. If a pointer is inside a green zone, it indicates rated pressure. With temperature increased, the pointer goes to a yellow zone though this is not a critical state. A locking device is secured with a lead seal. The lead seal contains the details of its ID and date in the month-year format (FPR, Section 477 as amended on 17.02.2014).
- In addition to the data listed in GOST, a manufacturer’s bar code is printed on a label. It is necessary to indicate powder type and grade. Date of production (handwriting is allowed) is specified at the label bottom.
When using powder fire extinguishers the following precautions should be observed:
- Fire extinguisher housing is pressurized.
- When extinguishing electric fire, a funnel should be held at the distance of at least 1 m;
- On using a fire extinguisher, thoroughly ventilate a space.
