Minimax Carbon dioxide Type fire extinguishers with Aluminium cylinder body are up to 30% lighter in weight compared to seamless steel cylinders makes it convenient for maneuvering as well as easy to handle in case of use. Aluminium has no ferrite properties, so it is highly corrosion resistant so preferred for usage in special places like coastal and high salinity environments.
Carbon dioxide is effective on Class B (flammable liquids) fires involving flammable liquids such as petrol, spirits and diesel and equally effective on electrically actuated fires. Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers carry black colour coded band denoting the extinguisher type and contents to help quick identification in the event of a fire.
Carbon dioxide Type extinguishers becomes very cold while operating and present a danger to the safety of operator. Minimax Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers are supplied with rubber grip and specially designed horn, taking away the chances of unwanted injury and cold burns. Discharge hose with conductive wires helps to dissipate the static that is generated in the horn due to high pressure.
Minimax Carbon dioxide fire extinguishers are filled in-house in Gunnebo’s own PESO approved filling station to ensure highest level purity of the agent.
