Why Choose the 2KG AB Dry Powder Fire Extinguisher?

The Standard Protective Size for Homes & Workplaces
The 2KG Dry Powder extinguisher is the most popular, versatile size in Singapore. Balancing high extinguishing capability with ease of handling (gross weight approx. 3.4kg), it provides substantial fire-knockdown duration while remaining easy for anyone in an office or household to lift and operate during an emergency.

How It Protects You
Liquid and solid combustible fires escalate rapidly. This extinguisher discharges a specialized, siliconized monoammonium phosphate dry chemical that blankets active flames. Upon contact with high heat, the powder melts into a solid thermal barrier that starves the flame of ambient oxygen, cooling the combustion zone and preventing re-ignition.

✅ Effective against Class A & B fires (Including Electrical & Gas Origins)

Class A Fires: Organic solid combustibles such as wood, paper, cardboard, and textiles.

Class B Fires: Flammable liquids such as petrol, oil, thinners, and paints.

Electrical & Gas Origin Hazards: Under Singapore Standard SS 578:2019, portable extinguishers no longer carry standalone icons for electrical or gas fires. Always isolate the energy source (shut off the electrical main or gas supply) before suppression. Once isolated, the fire involves Class A or Class B materials, which this extinguisher rapidly suppresses.

⚠️ Application Limitations

Dry powder is not recommended for Class F cooking oil fires (deep-fryers or burning cooking pans in kitchens) as the pressurized blast can splash burning oil. Use an EN 1869 Certified Fire Blanket instead.

Dry chemical powder cannot extinguish thermal runaway in Lithium-Ion battery fires (e.g., PMDs, e-bikes, power banks).

Application & Regulatory Guidance

For Homeowners: Ideal placement near the kitchen entrance or exit passageway. Portable fire extinguishers in private residential premises are not subject to mandatory annual FSM regulatory audits, but routine visual inspections of the pressure gauge are recommended every 6 months.

For Commercial Premises: Fulfills supplementary protection requirements under SS 578:2019 for designated small equipment spaces. Serial label verifies third-party product listing under the accredited Product Listing Scheme (PLS).

✅ Ideal For: Homes, Vehicles, Offices, Retail Shops, Warehouses, Restaurants, Light Industrial Workshops and Storage Facilities

💡 Commercial Buying Tip: Under Singapore Standard SS 578:2019, commercial premises generally require a minimum 13A rating for general Class A fire hazards (our 2KG has a 13A rating). Further explore the 3KG Dry Powder to support your workplace compliance requirements.

Standards & Third-Party Certification

Manufacturing Standard: Tested and compliant with SS EN 3 / BS EN 3 standards

Accredited Certification Body: Certified by SETSCO, an accredited Certification Body under the Singapore Accreditation Council

Traceability & Verification: Supplied with an authentic Certification Body (CB) serial label and batch Certificate of Conformity (CoC) documentation

Premises Application: Meets equipment performance criteria under Singapore Standard SS 578:2019

Maintenance & Servicing Guidelines

Residential Use: Annual servicing is not mandatory for private residential properties. Standard portable extinguishers generally have an operating lifespan of up to 5 years before hydrostatic testing or replacement is advised by manufacturers. We recommend checking the pressure gauge once a month to ensure the needle remains in the green zone.

Commercial & Business Premises: Under Singapore Standard SS 578:2019, fire extinguishers deployed in commercial and industrial workplaces must undergo inspection and servicing at least once every 12 months by a qualified service provider. Units must be tagged with an up-to-date maintenance record label to satisfy workplace fire safety audits.
