9 Litre Water Fire Extinguisher
Product Details
Description
The 9 Litre Water Fire Extinguisher is the classic choice for tackling Class A fires involving ordinary combustibles such as wood, paper, cardboard, textiles, and plastics. Commonly found in Kenyan schools, hospitals, hotels, government offices, and residential buildings, water extinguishers are simple, effective, and environmentally friendly.
This extinguisher delivers 9 litres of water through a jet nozzle with an effective range of up to 8 metres and a discharge time of approximately 60 seconds. The cooling action of water rapidly reduces the temperature of burning materials below their ignition point, preventing re-ignition. The stored-pressure design with nitrogen propellant ensures instant readiness.
The mild steel cylinder features an internal epoxy lining to prevent corrosion from the water charge. A factory-fitted pressure gauge allows visual inspection without handling the unit. The squeeze-grip brass valve provides precise control, and a safety pin with tamper seal prevents accidental operation.
Important: Water extinguishers must NOT be used on electrical fires, flammable liquid fires, or cooking oil fires. They are intended as the primary extinguisher for general combustible materials and should be paired with CO2 or dry powder extinguishers in mixed-risk environments.
