How to Use a Dry Powder Fire Extinguisher
- On fires involving either liquids in containers or spilled liquids, direct the nozzle towards the near edge of the fire.
- With the rapid sweeping motion drive the fire towards the far edge until all the flames go off
- On fires involving flowing liquids, direct the nozzle at the base of the flames and sweep upwards.
- On fires in electrical equipment, switch off the current if safe to do so and then direct the nozzle straight at the fire.
Where the equipment is enclosed, direct into any opening with the object of penetrating the interior. - When the fire is no longer burning, shut off the discharger and wait until the atmosphere clears. If any flame is then still visible, discharge again.
