CO₂ Fire Extinguisher
The Poseidon CO₂ Fire Extinguisher is designed for class B fires, including class B flammable liquids, and Class C (electrical) fires. Carbon dioxide fire extinguisher swiftly displaces oxygen to smother a fire, ensuring rapid suppression without leaving residue. Its electrically non-conductive and effective for class B fire hazards properties make CO₂ fire extinguishers safe for electrical fires and electrical equipment.
Poseidon CO₂ fire extinguishers and fire extinguisher with CO₂ meet UL 5-B:C certification and comply with NFPA 10 and 12 standards, providing reliable fire protection. As a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher and fire extinguisher with CO₂, this fire extinguisher is environmentally friendly, with no ozone-depleting effects, making it a superior choice over halon-based alternatives.
The Poseidon CO₂ Fire Extinguisher is a high-performance fire suppression solution designed to combat flammable liquid and electrical fires. By rapidly discharging CO₂ gas, it removes oxygen from the combustion zone, swiftly extinguishing flames without damaging delicate electronics or leaving chemical residues.
Designed for a broad range of fire protection applications, the Poseidon CO₂ Fire Extinguisher is available in various sizes, making it suitable for everything from office environments to large-scale industrial facilities. Each unit features a corrosion-resistant cylinder made from CK45 steel or aerospace-grade aluminum, ensuring long-lasting durability and high reliability under extreme conditions.
Poseidon offers full customization for the CO₂ Fire Extinguisher, including color, capacity, casing material, structure, and valve configurations. The extinguisher cylinder is available in CK45 steel or aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, with capacities ranging from 2.5 lbs (1.13 kg) to 20 lbs (9.07 kg). Both the cylinder and valve assembly can be tailored to meet precise requirements.
Poseidon CO₂ fire extinguishers are UL 5-B:C certified and comply with international safety standards, ensuring exceptional performance and reliability in extinguishing electrical fires, carbon dioxide fire, and snow which smothers hazards.

This fire extinguisher with CO₂ is effective for class B fires and works by fire by eliminating oxygen. Additionally, it is a reliable choice where wet chemical alternatives are unsuitable. Its aluminum cylinders ensure durability in various environments. The Poseidon CO₂ fire extinguisher is uniquely suited for applications requiring clean and effective fire suppression, particularly where carbon dioxide is discharged to rapidly eliminate oxygen and smothers a fire. Compared to traditional dry chemical or foam extinguishers, CO₂ offers a non-damaging, residue-free solution that prevents corrosion and minimizes post-fire cleanup. Unlike halon-based agents, which have been phased out in the U.S. due to their ozone-depleting properties under the Clean Air Act and the Montreal Protocol, carbon dioxide fire extinguishers provide a non-ozone-depleting and sustainable fire suppression option that is electrically non-conductive and suitable for protecting electrical equipment. It remains widely accepted in industrial, commercial, and maritime settings, providing an effective and regulatory-compliant alternative to halon systems. Additionally, CO₂ extinguishers excel in enclosed environments where rapid oxygen displacement is crucial for fire suppression.
