Corrosion-resistant and aesthetic Luxfer extinguishers are approved by PESO
Uttam Air Products, a leading gas manufacturer with an excellent record in the manufacturing and distribution of medical and industrial gases for over 35 years, is showcasing its most advanced ultra light weight fire extinguishers at the ongoing Fire India 2011 Expo on 19th, 20th and 21st September 2011 at the NSIC Grounds.
The theme of the three-day exhibition is “Fire Risk Alleviation: Readying for Excellence”. Uttam, a known name in the fields of Fire and Safety equipment and Medical, Industrial and Cryogenic gases, is displaying its new range of compact and light weight Luxfer fire extinguishers that have unique properties and are far more advanced than the conventional steel fire extinguishers.
Uttam in conjunction with Luxfer Gas Cylinders, the world’s largest manufacturer of aluminium and composite high-pressure gas cylinders, is offering a vast range of high-quality, high-performance aluminium fire extinguisher cylinders. Approved by Petroleum and Explosive Safety Organization (PESO), Govt. of India, these Luxfer fire extinguishers are up to 40 percent lighter than most comparable steel cylinders. Their body is made up of thick, damage-resistant walls. These fire extinguishers are non-magnetic, of consistent weight and are best suited for wet gases.
Mr. Karan Bhatia, Executive Director, Uttam Air Products and President, All India Industrial Gases Manufacturers Association (AIIGMA), says, “Conventional steel fire extinguishing cylinders are very heavy and in case of emergency it becomes difficult to swiftly maneuver them. On the other hand, Luxfer aluminium fire extinguishers are light weight, which makes them easy to operate. Even ladies can handle these fire extinguishers. We are happy to present to our esteemed customers these advanced composite high-pressure gas fire extinguishers that are manufactured at Uttam Air Products as per the global standards. Our products undergo the strictest quality checks and we ensure that there is consistency in the dimensions and other vital aspects of our product specially those pertaining to the safety of our fire extinguishers.”
Moisture inside steel cylinders (from condensation, moist gas, etc.) creates oxidation that leads to corrosion that in turn can lead to thinning of the walls of extinguisher and accidental leakage of gas or even a rupture! However, Luxfer fire extinguishers have a corrosion-resistant interior and exterior surface that protects them from rusting and further damage. Besides, these aluminium fire extinguishers also have a good aesthetic appeal. They are available in excellent choice of finishing including silk screening and clear coat labeling. Due to the shiny nature of the metal, users can proudly display these fire extinguishers in the open.
