The self-service P50 2kg Powder Fire Extinguisher has a 10-year manufacturer’s guarantee to give you peace of mind for years to come. Suitable for vehicles are workshops, as well as domestic locations, it is supplied with a transport bracket for a secure fixing to your van or lorry. There’s also no need for a yearly visit from your service engineer – saving you time and money – as you can carry out the annual inspection yourself following the easy-to-use guidance provided.

The multi-purpose 2kg Powder Fire Extinguisher is suitable for Class A, B and C fires, and thanks to being non-conductive, around live electrical equipment too. With a fire rating of 13A 55B C, the self-service P50 extinguisher carries the BSI Kitemark and boasts UKCA, EN3, PED and MED approvals.

Manufactured in Great Britain by Britannia, each P50 Fireworld fire extinguisher is virtually indestructible as it is constructed of polyethylene and Aramid fibre (Kevlar®). This means it will not corrode like standard steel extinguishers, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor environments whilst remaining lightweight and incredibly durable. With a 20 year lifespan, this requires factory refurbishment at the 10 year mark, which helps to reduce waste and is 100% recyclable at the end of its life.

Inspecting the 2kg Powder P50 Fire Extinguisher is simple, with instructions printed on the back to guide you through and allows you to log the maintenance using a marker pen, plus there is an app available for Google and Apple devices which you can use to register and log annual maintenance. The extinguisher features a pressure regulation gauge and a second one to double-check the first, with a special magnet supplied to check that the two gauges are working.

Suitable for the home, small kitchens and workshops, cars, cars, caravans, boats, truck cabs, and portable buildings.

Types of fire include Class A (wood, paper, cloth, etc), B (flammable liquids), C (flammable gas), and fire involving electrical equipment (tested to 1000V).

Anticipated lifespan with indoor use and proper maintenance - 10 years, with an additional 10 years after factory refurbishment.

Please Note: You should still have your new self-service P50 extinguishers commissioned and installed by an extinguisher technician.

 

The updated British Standard 5306-8:2012 Selection and positioning of portable fire extinguishers – Code of Practice states as follows:

"5.4.3 Use of powder extinguishers: The discharge of a powder extinguisher within buildings can cause a sudden reduction of visibility and can also impair breathing, which could temporarily jeopardize escape, rescue or other emergency action. For this reason, powder extinguishers should generally not be specified for use indoors, unless mitigated by a health and safety risk assessment."
