Importance of Proper Fire Extinguishers for Class C Fires and Workplace Safety Measures
Flammable gases used in service industries pose a significant fire and explosion risk if not stored and handled properly. The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) underscores the potential for explosive situations, emphasizing the need for strict safety protocols and maintenance of gas storage containers.
Using the correct fire extinguishers is paramount in combatting Class C fires. Different types of fire extinguishers are designed for specific fire classes, including:
Key Objectives of ISO 22000:2018:
- Water Extinguishers (Class A fires)
- Foam Extinguishers (Class A and B fires)
- Co2 Extinguishers (Electrical equipment and Class B fires)
- Wet Chemical Extinguishers (Class A and F fires)
- Dry Powder Extinguishers (Class A, B, and C fires)
When dealing with Class C fires, where flammable gases are involved, the use of dry powder extinguishers is recommended. These extinguishers are effective in smothering fires caused by combustible gases, ensuring quick and safe containment.
- Identify areas for improvement and align with requirements
- Meet regulatory standards
- Enhance quality, reduce production time, and improve efficiency
- Ensure food safety and prevent foodborne illnesses
- Establish food safety plans for consumer protection brand trust and confidence
