What should I do if the diesel tank catches fire? What fire extinguisher should I use?

Answer:

Fire extinguisher before use to see (the pressure gauge pointer is in the green area), two (shake shake up and down the fire Ji Junyun), three (pull out insurance), four station (station on the outlet, to prevent dry windblown mixed smoke fan eyes), five (at the root of the flame spray about six, injection), treatment (after the fire to prevent the resurgence of treatment).
The most critical thing is that before the fire, the fuel tank around the diesel barrels and other flammable flammable clear up, to prevent rapid spread of the fire can not be extinguished.
Therefore, diesel barrels fire, recommend the use of dry fire extinguishers, dry powder will be covered in the surface of the oil, and because of high temperature decomposition flame retardant, the effect is good, and if the fire is larger, you can use dry powder cart.
If the spray water-based 980ml on fire extinguisher can also, water mist fire extinguishing device without injection pressure, spray mist is covered on the surface of the oil, but also can isolate oxygen cooling, fire, but 980ml mist is too small, if the fire is too large, it is difficult to control;
Certainly can not fire barrel of diesel splashed water, because the water ratio of oil will lead to diesel light, water splash splash out, foam fire extinguisher can not, bubble is pressurized, the water from the powerful, will cause the oil with larger area caused by fire;
