Product overview
European-manufactured a stored-pressure ABC powder extinguisher sized for vehicles, unheated rooms, and outdoor points where a larger unit will not be carried. It is rated 8A 34B C under EN 3-7, runs six seconds on a continuous discharge, and is approved for live electrical equipment up to 1000 V when used from at least one metre away. Each unit we ship includes a pressure gauge and wall holder so it can be hung at the point of use rather than left loose in a footwell or cupboard, manufactured in Europe.
Where this unit belongs
A 1 kg charge is supplementary cover for vehicles, small plant rooms, meter cupboards, and outdoor points where a 6 kg unit is too heavy to carry one-handed. The label states outdoor placement, unheated rooms, and cars as intended locations. Where a premises needs a calculated fire rating for its floor area, that rating should be carried by larger units and this one should sit alongside them, not instead of them.
What ships with each unit
Each extinguisher arrives fully charged with its pressure gauge fitted and a wall holder in the box. The holder is the standard bracket for this cylinder size, fixed with two screws to a solid wall or post. Operating instructions and approval marks are printed on the label in the language of the destination country. Consignments carry the EU declaration of conformity for the batch.
Fire classes and electrical use
The 8A figure covers solid combustibles that form glowing embers, 34B covers flammable liquids in the EN test tray, and C confirms gas fires including propane and butane. For energised electrical equipment up to 1000 V, the approval requires a minimum one metre stand-off distance, which is the distance printed on the label and the one your risk assessment should reference. It is not a substitute for isolating the supply where that is possible.
Trade supply terms
Article NV-FE-101 moves on EXW, FCA, or DAP Incoterms. The 1 kg charge is limited-quantity dangerous goods under ADR, so road freight applies rather than parcel networks. Quote vehicle-fit quantities and the delivery country and we confirm carriage, lead time, and batch conformity documents on the quotation.
Frequently asked questions
Specification, conformity, and delivery, answered by the equipment desk.
What does the 8A 34B C rating on a 1 kg ABC powder extinguisher cover?
The rating is the size of test fire the unit extinguished under EN 3-7. 8A is the wood crib test for solids, 34B is a 34 litre liquid tray for flammable liquids, and C confirms it is approved for gases. For a premises rating calculation, only the A and B figures count towards the total.
Why does this 1 kg ABC extinguisher include a pressure gauge?
The unit is fitted with a manometer so a service technician or site manager can read charge pressure without weighing the cylinder. The gauge needle should sit in the green zone when the unit is correctly pressurised. A gauge that has dropped into the red zone means the unit needs service before it is relied on.
How close can a 1 kg ABC fire extinguisher be used on live electrical equipment?
On the 1 kg ABC line the approval covers energised equipment up to 1000 V when the operator keeps at least one metre away. At 297 mm high this is the compact unit buyers mount in meter cupboards and van brackets where a larger cylinder will not fit. Isolate the supply first wherever your procedure allows it.
Can a 1 kg ABC powder extinguisher be mounted outside or in an unheated building?
Yes for the 1 kg NV-FE-101. The label lists outdoor placement, unheated rooms, and vehicles with an operating range of -30 °C to +60 °C. Because a gauge is fitted, include the manometer in the annual service check if the unit lives in a van or unheated entrance.
Is the wall holder included with the 1 kg ABC powder extinguisher?
Yes. NV-FE-101 ships with the pressure gauge and wall holder in the box, not as a bare cylinder. Count one holder per unit on vehicle and cupboard surveys unless compatible brackets are already fitted.
