A Cartridge Fire Extinguisher in Saudi, designed for locations that require fast activation, stable pressure, and dependable performance in tough working environments. The I-A-20-G-1 Cartridge-Operated Fire Extinguisher uses a separate gas cartridge to pressurize the extinguisher instantly when the operator activates it. Industrial zones choose this design because it delivers reliable performance and maintains consistent discharge strength during emergencies
This 20 lb dry chemical version provides strong protection against Class A, B, and C fires and is commonly installed across Dammam, Jubail, Jeddah, Riyadh, Al Khobar, and other regions of Saudi Arabia. Nassguard supplies this extinguisher throughout the Kingdom, along with service support and periodic maintenance.
A Cartridge Fire Extinguisher in Saudi is a firefighting unit where the extinguishing agent and pressure source are stored separately. Instead of a continuously pressurized cylinder, the extinguisher stays unpressurized until the operator activates the internal CO₂ or nitrogen cartridge. When the cartridge is punctured, the extinguisher becomes fully pressurized and ready to discharge.
