Fire extinguishers are marked by colour and signage. It is important that any extinguisher is used correctly. For instance, an extinguisher containing water will be red, and have a warning not to use it on an oil or electrical fire. Carbon Dioxide will be black, Foam will be yellow, or in some countries, red with a yellow horizontal band, Dry powder is blue. Any health and safety website will provide examples of the colours used, and also instructions on their use, and on what type of fire they must not be used on.
be aware of where the marked fire exits are.....and possibly note locations of fire extinguishers...
Fire extinguishers are marked by letter and color. These identify the contents of extinguisher (water, foam, wet chemical, e.g.), and fire classification.(paper and wood, combustible metals, e.g).
1. by colour coding i.e. red for water, black for CO2 2. By writing the content in large letters on the body of the extinguisher
Nitrogen can be used in fire extinguishers as gas propellant.
