Product guide
A 1 KG DCP Fire Extinguisher is a small, lightweight fire extinguisher that can be used to stop small fires before they grow. Because it is so lightweight, you can easily carry it around in your car, kitchen, store, or office. It is also very easy to use during an emergency. This type of extinguisher uses ABC dry chemical powder to put out fires that were started by things such as wood, paper, cloth, gasoline, oil, and electrical equipment. It is safe to use on live electrical equipment. If you need a quick way to protect your family, vehicle, or workplace from fire, without spending too much money, then this is the perfect solution.
It is easy to store in your car's safety seat pocket, or even attach to the wall. It only takes seconds to remove. The chemical used to put out most types of fires is Mono-Ammonium Phosphate.

Can you use a 1kg dcp fire extinguisher in your car?
Yes. This is the most common sized fire extinguisher used in cars due to its size and weight. You can put out fires caused by petrol, oil, electricity and the engine. When mounting the fire extinguisher, ensure that it is secured with a bracket so that it does not slide around while driving and potentially get stuck beneath the pedals.
How much does a 1kg dry chemical powder (DCP) fire extinguisher cost in Pakistan? In general, most of these types of extinguishers will cost you somewhere in the range of PKR 1500 to PKR 2500. The cost can vary based on brand, quality, and where it is purchased.
What is the duration of a 1 kg DCP fire extinguisher? The DCP fire extinguisher can spray up to 8-9 seconds and reach distances of 3-4 meters. A 1 kg DCP fire extinguisher will be effective against small fires that are in their early stages. If there is a large fire, then you should get out of the area as quickly as possible and call 911.
Can you use a DCP (Dry Chemical Powder) extinguisher on an electrical fire? Yes. Since the powder will not conduct electricity, you can safely use a DCP extinguisher on an active electrical fire. However, because the powder may damage electronic components such as those found in computers and server rooms, we recommend using a CO2 extinguisher in those environments.
When should I fill/replace the tank? Check your tank's pressure gauge on a monthly basis. You can either refill or replace your tank every 1 to 2 years, or immediately after you have used it (even if only once). If the gauge is indicating that the tank is in the "red" zone, take care of it immediately by taking it in to be serviced.
