CABIN FIRE EXTINGUISHER
A portable Halon 1211 (Bromochlorodifluoromethane) fire extinguisher
is installed in a holder on the floorboard between the front seats to be
accessible in case of fire. The extinguisher is classified 5B:C by
Underwriters Laboratories.
The extinguisher should be checked prior to each flight to ensure that
the pressure of the contents, as indicated by the gage at the top of the
extinguisher, is within the green arc (approximately 125 psi) and the
operating lever lock pin is securely in place.
To operate the fire extinguisher:
1. Loosen retaining clamp(s) and remove extinguisher from bracket.
2. Hold extinguisher upright, pull operating ring pin, and press lever
while directing the liquid at the base of the fire at the near edge.
Progress toward the back of the fire by moving the nozzle rapidly
with a side-to-side sweeping motion.
VENTILATE THE CABIN PROMPTLY AFTER
SUCCESSFULLY EXTINGUISHING THE FIRE TO
REDUCE THE GASES PRODUCED BY THERMAL
DECOMPOSITION.
3. The contents of the cabin fire extinguisher will empty in
approximately eight seconds of continuous use.
Fire extinguishers should be recharged by a qualified fire extinguisher
agency after each use. After recharging, secure the extinguisher to its
mounting bracket.
