Cartridge Operated Fire Extinguisher FAQs
1. What is a cartridge operated fire extinguisher?
A cartridge operated fire extinguisher stores the expellant gas (such as CO₂) in a separate cartridge inside the cylinder. When activated, the cartridge is punctured to pressurize and discharge the extinguishing agent.
2. How is a cartridge operated extinguisher different from a stored pressure extinguisher?
In a stored pressure extinguisher, the agent and gas are pre-mixed in one cylinder. In a cartridge operated type, the gas cartridge is separate, making it easier to refill, inspect, and maintain.
3. What types of cartridge operated fire extinguishers are available?
Two common types are available:
Water CO₂ Cartridge Type – for Class A fires (wood, paper, textiles).
DCP (Dry Chemical Powder) Cartridge Type – for Class B and C fires (flammable liquids, gases, and electrical equipment).
4. What fires can a Water CO₂ Cartridge extinguisher handle?
It is effective on Class A fires involving combustible solids like paper, wood, and textile materials. Some models are also safe on electrical equipment if di-electrically tested.

DCP cartridge extinguishers are suitable for Class B and C fires, including LPG gas, flammable liquids such as chemicals, petroleum, oils, paints, paper, cloth, and electrical fires.

They are widely used in warehouses, textile factories, storage facilities, office spaces, and locations with LPG or flammable liquid risks.
7. Is a cartridge operated extinguisher easy to refill?
Yes. Because the gas cartridge and extinguishing agent are separate, refilling and recharging are simpler and more cost-effective than stored pressure types.
8. What sizes are available for cartridge operated extinguishers?
Common sizes include 6 kg (DCP) and 9 litre (Water CO₂), suitable for various commercial and industrial fire risks.
9. Are cartridge operated extinguishers safe to use near electrical equipment?
Certain Water CO₂ models are safe on electrical equipment if they have been di-electrically tested. DCP types are also effective on electrical fires.

For gas, liquid, or electrical fires: Choose a DCP Cartridge type.
