2 © 2009 ARCADIS 2 December 2015 Extinguisher Use Fire extinguishers should be located throughout your office and marked with a fire extinguisher sign. Fire extinguishers may be located in field vehicles and should be securely mounted. ARCADIS does not require anyone to use a fire extinguisher unless required at a client site. Never attempt to use an extinguisher if there is any question that your personal safety could be compromised. Your safety comes first! When using a fire extinguisher, keep your back at and to the door, and front to the fire so you can exit quickly.

3 © 2009 ARCADIS 2 December 2015 Extinguisher Use The “Old” extinguisher labeling system recognizes four classes of extinguishers: Class A, B, C and D As seen in the next slide, the new extinguisher labeling system uses pictures to identify the type of fire the extinguisher and for what type of fires it can be used.

4 © 2009 ARCADIS 2 December 2015 Types of Extinguishers Class A Extinguishes ordinary combustibles such as wood and paper. Ordinary Combustibles Class B Extinguishes flammable liquids such as grease, gasoline and oil. Flammable Liquids Class C Extinguishes electrically charged fires using a non- conductive agent. Electrical Equipment Class D Used for fires involving flammable metals. The extinguisher is often specific to the metal type. Combustible Metals

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Extinguisher Use  Multi-class Ratings: Many extinguishers used today can be used on different types of fires and will be labeled with more than one type of designator.

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Extinguisher Use  Multi-class Ratings: The new labeling style may show what the extinguisher is NOT suitable for.

7 © 2009 ARCADIS 2 December 2015 Common Types of Extinguishers Dry Chemical –Usually rated for multi-purpose use –Contains extinguishing agent and uses compressed, non-flammable gas as a propellant Carbon Dioxide –Most effective on liquid and electrical fires (Class B and C) –Since the gas disperses quickly there is a limited range of 3-8 feet –The CO 2 is stored as a compressed liquid. As it expands, it cools the surrounding air. Causes ice to form on the horn of the extinguisher –Limited range of 4-8 feet Water –Contains water and compressed gas –Should only be used on combustible, Class A fires

8 © 2009 ARCADIS 2 December 2015 Using a Fire Extinguisher When using an extinguisher remember PASS: Pull Aim Squeeze Sweep

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Using a Fire Extinguisher Pull – Pull the pin at the top of the extinguisher that keeps the handle from accidentally being pressed.

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Using a Fire Extinguisher Aim – Aim the nozzle toward the base of the fire.

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Using a Fire Extinguisher Squeeze – Stand approximately 8 feet away from the fire and squeeze the handle to discharge the extinguisher. If you release the handle, the discharge will stop.

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Using a Fire Extinguisher Sweep – Sweep the nozzle back and forth at the base of the fire.

© 2009 ARCADIS 2 December Using a Fire Extinguisher Once the fire is extinguished, watch closely in case fire re-ignites.
