FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND DISCHARGE NOZZLE ASSEMBLY

摘要

A portable handheld dry chemical fire extinguisher is provided that includes a discharge nozzle assembly that is uniquely suited for fighting cooking oil fires. The discharge nozzle assembly discharges a relatively low velocity, high volume flow of dry chemical fire extinguishing agent that gently curves downwardly over a relatively short reach to fall into the fire, such as a cooking oil fire in a cooking vessel on a range top, without splashing.
