Hello,

If this is the thing you are looking for I installed one more than two years ago. No problem for the moment. They will be inspected this year.

If you have something better in mind can you give more details.

Thanks Denis,
Is it 1 or 2 kg? B43 engine room is app. 1,2 m3 which makes a 1 kg piece sufficient. What is the extinguishing agent, FE 241 or HFC 227 ea? (FE 241 is for unoccupied areas only)
Some important issues: In case of a fire engine & fan must be stopped. There are automatic shut down systems activated simultaneously with extinguisher. Activation occurs when temp. reaches 79 deg.C. But smoke starts lots earlier. A hard wired smoke alarm can alert you before flames appear. In this case to activate the extinguisher, you need a manual handle. Not a quite simple issue. Sorry if I confused you.

Hello Vedat,

I think I have a basic automatic ABC 1kg fire extinguisher not the "Halon" type. I might think of this upgrade.
