Class Of Fire And How To Deal With Fire

Warning!!!

- Safety is everyone's responsibility!

- Fires are always breaking out all over the place!

Several classes of fires that usually occur in various industries and how to extinguish them:

- Class B Fire: Occurs due to flammable liquids, gas, and oil. It is extinguished with foam that removes oxygen and dry chemicals that break down the chemical chain reaction.

- Class C Fire: Occurs due to electrical equipment. It is extinguished with dry powder which breaks the electrical circuit and carbon dioxide which replaces oxygen.

- Class D Fire: Occurs due to flammable metals such as magnesium, sodium, potassium, and titanium. It is extinguished with a special dry powder which coats the metal surface and prevents it from reacting with oxygen.

Ways to deal with fire:

- Provide a fire extinguisher and know how to use it

- Carry out the Evacuation Process

- Don't stand too close to the fire

- Spray the fire extinguishing agent at the base of the fire and move from side to side

- Call the Fire Brigade if you don't know how to put out a fire
