FIRE SAFETY TRAINING
UNDERSTAND OF COMBUSTION PROCESS.
BASIC PRINCIPLE OF FIRE SAFETY
1. Enough OXYGENOXYGEN to sustain combustion.
2. Enough HEATHEAT to reach ignition temperature.
3. Some FUELFUEL or combustible material.
Together, they produce the CHEMICALCHEMICAL REACTION REACTION that is fire.
Three things must be present at the same time to produce
fire:
Take away any of these things and Take away any of these things and the fire will be extinguished.the fire will be extinguished.
MAJOR CAUSES OF FIRES Carelessness with
smoking, matches & open fire.
Miss-use of electricity (overloading a circuit or over use of extension cords).
Improper rubbish disposal.
Improper storage of flammables materials.
Schedule PM work not done in heater, furnace & others heating elements.

HOW FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK.
1) Water extinguishers are filled with regular tap water.2) Normally pressurized with air cartridge. 3) The most common way to remove heat is to spray water
on the fire.
TYPE-A (Water)TYPE-A (Water) extinguish fire by taking away
the “heat” element of the Fire Triangle.
HOW FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK.
1) AFFF extinguishers are filled with regular tap water AND AFFF LIQUID.
2) Normally pressurized with air cartridge. 3) The AFFF creating a blanket of foam and cutting the
supply of oxygen between Fuel and Flame.
TYPE-AB (AFFF - FOAM)TYPE-AB Foam fire extinguishers work by covering a
burning flammable liquid with a blanket of foam.
HOW FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK.
1) Type-BC GAS extinguishers are filled with non-flammable carbon dioxide gas under extreme pressure.
2) CO2 are designed for flammable liquid and electrical fires only. 3) CO2 may be ineffective at extinguishing Class A fires.
TYPE-BC (GAS)TYPE-BC GAS Carbon dioxide extinguishes work by displacing
oxygen and taking away the oxygen element of the fire triangle.
HOW FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK.
1) DCP extinguishers are filled with Sodium Bicarbonate, potassium bicarbonate, or monoammonium phosphate.
2) Normally pressurized with air cartridge. 3) Dry chemical fire extinguisher is to blanket the fuel with an inert
solid.
TYPE-BC (POWDER)TYPE-BC(DCP) dry chemical extinguisher sprays a very fine powder
of SODIUM BICARBONATE, potassium bicarbonate, or monoammonium phosphate. These solids coat the
fuel and smother the fire.
HOW FIRE EXTINGUISHERS WORK.
1) TYPE-ABC fire extinguishers are filled with a fine yellow powder and Nitrogen is used to pressurize the extinguishers.
2) An "ABC" extinguisher will have a label like this, indicating that it may be used on class A,B, and C fires.
3) TYPE-ABC fire extinguisher is to blanket the fuel with an inert powder.
TYPE-ABC TYPE-ABC extinguishers put out fire by coating the fuel with a thin
layer of dust, separating the fuel from the oxygen in the air.

PREVENTION AND PRECAUTION DURING FIRES
IF YOUR CLOTHES / BODY CATCH FIRE THAN
STOPDO NOT RUN, STOP WHERE YOU ARE.
DROP DROP TO THE
GROUND.
ROLL COVER YOUR FACE
WITH YOUR HAND AND ROLL OVER AND OVER
UNTIL THE FIRE IS OUT.
FIRE FIGHTING DECISION CRETERIA KNOW: YOUR DEPARTMENT EMERGENCY PROCEDURES AND
EVACAUTION ROUTES.
KNOW: LOCATIONS OF EXTINGUISHERS IN YOUR AREA AND HOW TO USE THEM.
ALWAYS: SOUND THE ALARM REGARDLESS OF FIRE SIZE.
AVOID: SMOKY CONDITIONS.
ENSURE: AREA IS EVACUATED.
DO NOT: ATTEMPT TO FIGHT UNLESS. Alarm is soundedFire is small and containedYou have safe egress route (can be reached without exposure
to fire)Available extinguishers are rated for size and type of fire
If in doubt, IMMEDIATE evacuate!
“DON’T ATTEMPT TO FIGHT UNLESS YOU ARE TRAINED”
Fires can be very dangerous and you should always be certain that you will not endanger yourself or others when
attempting to put out a fire.
For this reason, when a fire is discovered…
RULES FOR FIGHTING FIRES.
1. Assist any person in immediate danger to safety, if it can be accomplished without risk to yourself.
2. Call to our Security or activate the building fire alarm. The fire alarm will notify the fire department and other building occupants and shut off the air handling system to prevent the spread of smoke.
If the fire is small (and Only after having done these 2 things), you may attempt to use an extinguisher to put it out.
However . However . . . .. . .
. . . before deciding to fight the fire, keep these things in mind:
1. Know what is burning. If you don’t know what’s burning, you won’t know what kind of extinguisher to use.
2. Even if you have an ABC fire extinguisher, there may be something in the fire that is going to explode or produce toxic fumes.
Chances are you will know what’s burning, or at least have a pretty good idea, but if you don’t, let the fire department handle it.
RULES FOR FIGHTING FIRES.
. . . before deciding to fight the fire, keep these things in mind:
Rules for Fighting FiresRules for Fighting Fires
3. Is the fire spreading rapidly beyond the point where it started? The time to use an extinguisher is at the beginning stages of the fire.
4. If the fire is already spreading quickly, it is best to simply pull the fire alarm and evacuate the building.
As you evacuate a building, close doors and windows behind you as you leave. This will help to slow the spread of smoke and fire.
Do not fight the fire if:
Rules for Fighting FiresRules for Fighting Fires
You don’t have adequate or appropriate equipment. If you don’t have the correct type or large enough extinguisher, it is best not to try fighting the fire.
You might inhale toxic smoke. When synthetic materials such as the nylon in carpeting or foam padding in a sofa burn, they can produce hydrogen cyanide, acrolein, and ammonia in addition to carbon monoxide. These gases can be fatal in very small amounts.
Your instincts tell you not to. If you are uncomfortable with the situation for any reason, just let the fire department do their job.
Rules for Fighting FiresRules for Fighting FiresThe final rule is to always position yourself with an exit or means of escape at your back before you attempt to use an extinguisher to put out a fire.
In case the extinguisher malfunctions, or something unexpected happens, you need to be able to get out quickly. You don’t want to become trapped.
Always Report the Use of a Fire Always Report the Use of a Fire ExtinguisherExtinguisher
Report any use of a fire extinguisher to EHS as soon as possible. The extinguisher must be inspected and refilled to make sure it is ready for use in an emergency.
