DCP Fire Extinguishers
0.6 - 9kg Dcp Fire Extinguishers
DCP fire extinguishers are versatile and effective
firefighting tools that use a fine, dry chemical powder
usually monoammonium phosphate or sodium bicarbonate
to suppress fires. They work by interrupting the chemical reaction of
fire and creating a barrier between the fuel and the oxygen. These extinguishers are ideal for Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (electrical) fires. DCP extinguishers are widely used in homes, offices, workshops, and vehicles due to their quick knockdown power and reliability. They leave a powdery residue, so they're best suited for areas where cleanup is manageable.

DCP Spares & Accessories
Discharge Hose Nozzle
The discharge hose nozzle is a crucial component that directs the extinguishing agent onto the fire. It is typically attached to the end of the discharge hose and is designed to provide a controlled release of the agent. The nozzle helps to ensure that the extinguishing agent is applied effectively to the fire, maximizing its chances of being extinguished. The nozzle's design allows for optimal agent dispersion, ensuring that the fire is smothered efficiently. The nozzle is typically made of durable materials, such as metal or high-quality plastics, to withstand the rigors of firefighting.
Stored Pressure Type Valve Assembly
The stored pressure type valve assembly is a critical component of a fire extinguisher. It is responsible for maintaining the pressure within the extinguisher and controlling the release of the extinguishing agent. When the extinguisher is activated, the valve assembly opens, allowing the pressurized agent to be released through the discharge hose. This type of valve assembly is commonly used in fire extinguishers because it provides a reliable and consistent discharge of the agent. The valve assembly is designed to be durable and resistant to corrosion, ensuring that it functions properly when needed.
4.5kg & 9kg Discharge Hose
The discharge hose is a flexible tube that connects the fire extinguisher to the discharge nozzle. It is designed to withstand the pressure of the extinguishing agent and provide a safe and controlled means of directing the agent onto the fire. The 4.5kg and 9kg discharge hoses are likely designed for use with fire extinguishers of corresponding capacities. The hose's flexibility allows for easy maneuverability, making it easier to direct the agent onto the fire. The hose is typically made of a durable, flexible material, such as rubber or synthetic rubber, to withstand the rigors of firefighting.
Extinguisher Plunger
The extinguisher plunger is a mechanism that activates the fire extinguisher. When pressed, it opens the valve assembly, allowing the extinguishing agent to be released. The plunger is typically located on the top or side of the extinguisher and is designed to be easily accessible in an emergency. The plunger's design ensures that the extinguisher can be activated quickly and easily, allowing for a rapid response to fires. The plunger is typically made of a durable material, such as metal or high-quality plastics, to withstand the rigors of repeated use.
Fire Extinguisher Cover
The fire extinguisher cover is a protective casing that encloses the extinguisher. It helps to protect the extinguisher from damage and tampering, while also providing a means of identifying the extinguisher and its contents. The cover may also help to keep the extinguisher clean and free from debris. The cover is typically made of a durable material, such as plastic or metal, to provide long-lasting protection.
J Brackets
The J brackets are mounting hardware used to secure the fire extinguisher to a wall or other fixed surface. They are designed to provide a sturdy and reliable means of supporting the weight of the extinguisher. The brackets help to prevent the extinguisher from being knocked over or tampered with, ensuring that it is always ready for use. The brackets are typically made of a durable material, such as metal, to provide long-lasting support.
Extinguisher Safety Pin
The extinguisher safety pin is a safety feature that prevents accidental discharge of the extinguisher. It is typically located on the plunger or handle of the extinguisher and must be removed before the extinguisher can be activated. The safety pin provides an additional layer of safety, ensuring that the extinguisher is not activated unintentionally. The safety pin is typically made of a durable material, such as metal, to provide long-lasting protection.
Stored Pressure Extinguiser Gauge
The stored pressure extinguisher gauge is a device that indicates the pressure level within the extinguisher. It helps to ensure that the extinguisher is properly charged and ready for use. The gauge typically has a needle that points to the pressure level, allowing users to easily check the extinguisher's status. The gauge is typically located on the extinguisher's valve assembly or on the side of the extinguisher.
Cable tie
The cable tie is a fastening device used to secure cables or hoses in place. In the context of fire extinguishers, it may be used to manage the discharge hose or other components. The cable tie helps to keep the area around the extinguisher organized and clutter-free, reducing the risk of tripping hazards or other accidents. The cable tie is typically made of a durable material, such as nylon or polyester, to provide long-lasting support.
