- 2. A process in which substances combine chemically with oxygen from the air and typically give out bright light, heat, and smoke; combustion or burning. Fire Triangle

- 6. Types of Removing Fire COOLING Removal of heat. (Best cooling media is water SMOTHERING Reducing % of oxygen. Cutting off the supply of oxygen. (Blanketing, Use foam STARVATION Removal of fuel or removal of combustible material near by
- 7. Types of Fire Extinguishers
- 8. Water type Extinguisher A ring or pin on the handle stops the fire extinguisher from being set off by accident. It also acts as a tamper-proof seal: if the ring is broken or missing, you know the extinguisher needs to be checked. Inside the sturdy steel case, there's a canister containing high- pressure gas (orange with blue hashing). Most of the extinguisher is filled with water (blue). A tube runs right up the inside of the tube to a nozzle outside (gray). The nozzle often ends in a piece of bendy plastic so you can easily direct it toward the base of a fire. To operate the extinguisher, you pull the ring and press the handle. Pressing the handle opens a valve (shown here as a green arrow) that releases the pressurized gas from the canister. The gas immediately expands and fills the inside of the extinguisher, pushing the water downward As the water is pushed down, it rises up the tube A jet of water emerges from the nozzle.
- 9. Powder type ( DCP ) Extinguisher
- 11. CO2 Extinguisher
- 12. CO2 Extinguisher These consist basically of a pressure cylinder with a valve for releasing the gas and a discharge horn. The gas is maintained in liquid form at a pressure of 50 bars (750 psi). The discharge horn allows the gas to expand at a ratio of 450:1 and when it is directed into the fire, prevents air from being pulled along entrainment by reducing the velocity of gas. The average discharge time is 16 – 30 seconds. Advantages: i. Rapid in action, independent of atmospheric temperature. Ii. It is an inert gas which quickly disperses, leaving no trace. iii. It is a non-conductor of electricity. iv. Can be used in the incipient (first) stage of highly flammable liquid fires. v. Penetrates inaccessible places Disadvantages: i. The total weight in relation to the contents is considerable ii. There is no visible way to check the contents
- 14. Personal protective equipment (PPE) It is refers to protective clothing, helmets, goggles, or other garments or equipment designed to protect the wearer's body from injury or infection. The hazards addressed by protective equipment include physical, electrical, heat, chemicals, biohazards, and airborne particulate matter.
- 15. CCTV Cameras : For surveillance of movement/footages of incidents and accidents SMOKE DETECTOR : Is used to detect the smoke and alarm goes on
- 16. MCP Hooter
- 17. FIRE ALARM PANEL BOARD : To monitor breakup of fire and know the exact location of fire
- 18. Fire sprinkler system A fire sprinkler system is an active fire protection measure, consisting of water supply system, providing adequate pressure and flow rate to a water distribution piping system, A glass bulb type sprinkler head will spray water into the room if sufficient heat reaches the bulb and causes it to shatter. Sprinkler heads operate individually. Note the red liquid alcohol in the glass bulb.
- 19. Hydrant System Hose Reel Drum
- 20. Hose Box Single Hydrant
- 21. FIRE HYDRANT SYSTEM : To control major fire in coordination with the Engineering department.
- 22. Smothering Method Fire Blanket
- 23. PASS Method of Fire Fighting
- 25. In case of Fire there will be enormous smoke which will fade our vision , to over come that we have to crawl down to save our life . Always remember Fire kills slowly but …. “Smoke will kill Immediately & Instantly”

- 31. What the fire alarm sound like in your building The Escape routes within your building If you discover a fire, how to raise the alarm What to do if you hear the fire alarm Who to call if a fire starts How to open fire exit doors Why is it important to go to the assembly area? Why fire doors should remain closed at all times? Why are fire extinguishers provided?
- 32. Ensure that you know; The escape routes Emergency exit doors and how to open them Location and types of fire fighting equipment Locations of call points Any specific fire procedures including the assembly points Who are your Reporting authorities/Safety Managers. Whom to report to for any defects or bad practices.
- 33. F - Find what type the fire is. I - Inform to everyone by raising alarm R - React Immediately, Restrict the fire by closing doors, Isolating the fuel electricity supply E - Extinguish the fire by using the correct type fire extinguish media

Editor's Notes
- #28: In case of Fire there will be enormous smoke will fade our vision , to over come that we have to crawl down to save our life . Keep remember Fire kill slowly but Smoke kills instantly
