English Manual

Wheeled carbon dioxide extinguisher

English operating and maintenance guidance for wheeled CO2 extinguishers used in substations, generator rooms, workshops and larger technical equipment areas.

Operating Method

  1. Move the wheeled unit to a stable position at a safe distance from the fire.
  2. Remove the discharge horn or gun and fully extend the hose.
  3. Open the cylinder valve according to the product label.
  4. Hold the insulated grip and aim the horn at the base of the flame.
  5. Control the discharge and sweep the CO2 stream across the fire base.
  6. Ventilate the area after use when safe.

Product overview and application

Wheeled CO2 extinguishers provide larger clean-agent capacity for electrical rooms, generator areas, workshops, technical rooms and other sites where residue from powder or water-based agents is undesirable.

  • The wheeled format supports larger CO2 charge capacity.
  • The agent is suitable for many liquid and energized electrical fire scenarios.
  • Operators must consider oxygen displacement and cold-discharge hazards.

Main structure and working principle

The unit includes a trolley frame, high-pressure cylinder, valve, hose, discharge horn or gun and safety device. CO2 expands rapidly at discharge, creating a cold gas stream that suppresses the fire.

  • The hose must be fully extended before discharge.
  • The trolley must remain stable during use.
  • Do not modify the cylinder, safety device or valve assembly.

Storage and routine inspection

Store the extinguisher in an accessible location protected from impact, high temperature and corrosive conditions.

  • Check wheels, frame, hose, horn, valve, safety pin and cylinder appearance.
  • Verify cylinder weight according to the inspection schedule.
  • Keep the movement path clear for fast deployment.

Service and Maintenance Checks

  • Qualified service personnel must inspect and maintain pressure-vessel components.
  • Weigh cylinders and investigate any charge loss beyond the permitted limit.
  • Inspect hose, horn, valve, safety membrane, wheel assembly and frame.
  • Hydrostatically test pressure parts according to applicable pressure-vessel rules.
  • Replace worn seals, safety devices and damaged discharge assemblies.
  • Recharge with approved CO2 only.

Important Safety Notes

  • Do not touch the horn outlet or frost-covered parts during discharge.
  • Do not discharge toward people or into occupied confined spaces without evacuation.
  • Keep the unit away from high heat and impact.
  • Use by trained personnel is recommended for larger wheeled units.
