Fire Drills and Safety Training for Students
During a lab safety induction, teachers show students where the extinguisher hangs and how to read the class letters on its label. A Fire and Fire Extinguishers chart can hang beside it as a teaching aid for this talk.
In a fire drill, trainees practise the pull, aim, squeeze and sweep sequence, aiming at the base of the flames from within the 20 feet discharge range. The drill also covers the other first steps: switching off the power to a burning machine, and smothering a small pan fire with a Fire Blanket. Each drill ends with the class at the assembly point.
Frequently Asked Questions
What extinguishing agent does it use?
It uses a dry chemical agent. The unit holds 10 lb of agent and weighs 16 lb in all. Trainees should lift and carry it during a drill, so they know its weight before they ever need it.
Which classes of fire is it for?
It is for class A fires in trash, wood and paper, class B fires in liquids and grease, and class C fires involving electrical equipment. These letters follow the American system used on its label. In the Indian and European systems, class C means fires in flammable gases.
Can it be used on a fire in electrical equipment?
Yes, class C covers fires involving electrical equipment, alongside class A and B fires. In a workshop drill, students also learn to switch off the power to a burning machine where the switch can be reached.
How long does a full discharge last?
A full unit discharges for 19–21 seconds and reaches 20 feet. That short time is why trainees learn to aim at the base of the fire and sweep from side to side from the first second.
