How to recognize a CO2 extinguisher

When it comes to fighting fires, the first few seconds are the most important. The longer you wait to attack a fire, the more fire-fighting resources you need.

CO2 extinguishers can be identified in Europe by their grey or black elements:

  • Black handle and diffuser,
  • Diffusers are conical blowers attached either directly to the body of the device for 2 Kg CO2 models, or to the end of a lance for the 5 Kg CO2 model.
