Where should fire cabinets be used?
In line with the new regulations issued in recent years, importance is given to technical safety issues within apartments, sites, and blocks. Among these safety factors that have become mandatory are emergency exit doors, the requirement to have fire extinguishers, the presence of fire extinguishing systems, and fire response cabinets. In the face of this legal obligation, new designs have been made by giving importance to their manufacturing. These cabinets must be located at the entrances of buildings, and in case of any fire or dangerous situation, the cabinet must be opened and intervention should be made with the fire extinguishing materials inside. Fire cabinets should be easily accessible and used by authorized personnel. The person who will intervene in the fire must have received training on this matter and know how to intervene in a dangerous situation or fire. The fire cabinet should be manufactured according to the materials that are mandatory to be inside the cabinet. The essential materials that must be in the fire cabinet include a fire extinguisher, protective clothing for fire intervention, a half-face or full-face mask to avoid smoke, boots, and most importantly, a helmet. The basic rule emphasized and adopted during a fire (human life first) must be taken into account.
Fire cabinet manufacturing
Fire cabinets are produced in various specifications according to requests and usage areas. The most ideal is one made of non-flammable material. Generally, those made of metal are accepted and should be in an easily accessible location. The use of fire cabinets, which has become a legal requirement, plays an important role in saving lives.
There are points to consider during the use of the fire extinguisher inside the cabinet. First of all, training on the rules for using the fire extinguisher must be received and known. Attention should be paid to the green and red indicators on the pressure gauge of the fire extinguisher. If the dial on the gauge is in the red, it means the pressure is too low or too high. If the pressure is low, the powder inside the cylinder may clump, and full efficiency cannot be achieved during intervention. If the cylinder is in the green, its use is under ideal conditions. When using a fire extinguisher, except for the handle of the nozzle that directs the powder, if you hold it with your hand, your hand will stick to the nozzle due to the cold, causing health problems.
