Fire Extinguisher Operating Cartridge

Fire Extinguisher Operating Cartridges are devices used in fire extinguishers to activate the extinguishing agent. They are part of the supply class Cartridge And Propellant Actuated Devices And Components, which falls under the supply group Ammunition And Explosives.

These cartridges are typically made of a metal casing filled with a propellant, such as compressed gas or a chemical mixture. When the fire extinguisher is activated, the cartridge is punctured or ignited, releasing the propellant and pressurizing the extinguishing agent, allowing it to be expelled from the fire extinguisher.

The purpose of the Fire Extinguisher Operating Cartridge is to provide the necessary force to propel the extinguishing agent out of the fire extinguisher and onto the fire, helping to suppress or extinguish it.

It's important to note that while these cartridges are classified under the supply group Ammunition And Explosives, they are not intended for use as weapons or for causing harm. Instead, they are designed specifically for fire safety purposes.
