Material of Wheeled Fire Extinguisher
Aluminium – Used exclusively for CO2 extinguishers due to higher pressure. Steel – Used for the majority of water and powder-based extinguishers as well as some CO2 units. Stainless Steel – Used for select extinguisher bodies.

 

Application of Wheeled Fire Extinguisher
Wheeled fire extinguishers are usually installed on ships, oil rigs, helicopter decks, petrochemical plants, oil refineries, airports, large warehouses and factories. They allow rapid and flexible fire fighting with a substantial amount of extinguishing agent. This gives time in between the fire breaking out and the fire brigade arriving. In isolated locations and ships, wheeled fire extinguishers are the only option to deploy larger amounts of fire fighting chemicals in a self sufficient way.

 

 

Components of Wheeled Fire Extinguisher
 

Pneumatic tires
The pneumatic wheels are designed to be move effective in moving the fire extinguisher unit when the surface that you will traverse is soft or softer than a hard surface. Pneumatic tires are often found on wheeled fire extinguishers that weight less than 400 pounds (181 kg).

 

Large steel wheels
The large wheels, up to 36" x 6", enhance leverage and mechanical advantage allowing the user, often as single user, to more easily and quickly transport the very heavy load. Most wheeled fire extinguishers that weigh over 400 pounds (181 kg) have steel wheels.

 

Frame
The frame supports the cylindrical tank and the axel to it so that the wheels will be assembled for heavy duty support and stability.

 

Cylinder tank
Wheeled fire extinguisher tanks are large and can carry hundreds of pounds of extinguishing agent. They are similar in look to the flat bottom and dome shaped top of hand portable extinguishers, only significantly larger.

 

Nitrogen cylinder with turn valve
This tank houses the nitrogen or propellent that is used to pressurize and expel the extinguishing agent from the extinguisher tank. The turn valve atop the cylinder opens and closes to release the nitrogen into the extinguisher cylinder tank.

 

Hose with nozzle assembly
the nozzle has a bale or handle assembly that allows the user to adjust the flow rate of the extinguishing agent and nitrogen propellent by moving it backward to release the agent and pushing it forward to reduce and turn off the flow of agent.

 

Extinguishing agent
The substance that limits or suppresses the spread of the fire. An understanding of the different classifications (Classes) of fires is helpful in determining which type of fire extinguisher is best for your situation.

The Primary Difference Between Hand Portable Fire Extinguishers and Wheeled Fire Extinguishers

 

The primary difference between hand portable fire extinguishers and wheeled fire extinguishers is the larger capacity of tank and the extinguishing agent it can carry. Hand portable fire extinguishers weigh up to 20 kg, and wheeled fire extinguishers can weigh over 800 pounds. Because of this primary difference of weight, engineers needed to design the fire extinguisher so that it could be transported and maneuvered by a single person. This mandated the need for wheels to be added to a frame which supported the tank so the person could transport it, by themselves, down corridors, around corners, and over rough terrain. In other words, it must allow the person to respond and act to extinguish the fire before it gets out of control and unable to be combatted by a fire extinguisher.

 
Maintenance Tips for Wheeled Fire Extinguisher
1. Check for signs of corrosion

If your fire extinguisher has been sitting under the sink for years, it may likely develop some corrosion or rust build-up. Be sure to check for any signs of damage or leaks in the extinguisher. Even the tiniest leak will render your device useless. It is essential to inspect your fire extinguishers at least once a month to check for any signs of a leak or corrosion.

2. Shake it around

When a fire extinguisher sits for a long time, the chemicals inside can settle to the bottom. The worst thing that can happen during a fire is finding out that your fire extinguishers are not functioning. Shake around the dry chemicals in the fire extinguishers once a month to prevent the contents from settling and hardening at the bottom of the canister.

3. Recharge and replace

Examine the tamper seal and pin on the fire extinguisher and make sure they are still intact. If they are not, the device will have to be replaced. It is essential that you recharge your extinguishers even after a single use. A fully charged device is imperative to proper fire protection for your home or business.

4. Ensure extinguishers are accessible

Check to make sure that your fire extinguishers are not blocked by equipment, clothing or other objects. If they are, remove those objects immediately. Fire extinguishers must be easily reachable and accessible to every member of your household. Do not place them on high shelves or in the back of closets where they would be difficult to find in an emergency.

 

Things to Note When Using Wheeled Fire Extinguisher

Check the fire extinguisher pressure valve before use. Under normal circumstances, the pointer should point in the green area, the red area represents insufficient pressure, and the yellow represents excessive pressure. Wheeled fire extinguishers must be used upright. After the safety pin is removed, the nozzle mouth is prohibited from facing people to prevent injury. When extinguishing fire, the operator must operate in the upwind direction. Pay attention to the effective distance and usage time of the fire extinguishing point.
