Moreover, there are a gas pressurizing type and accumulate pressure type in ABC powdery fire extinguisher. When the gas pressurizing type grips the lever, the liberating type into which the whole quantity is discharged is widespread well. As for this, after it jets it, surroundings are white dirty with the powder though the price is low.

Because the pressure gauge is attached to the accumulate pressure type. The powder goes out when pulling a lever, and the gush stops if the hand of the lever is separated. Prices rise more than the gas pressurizing types.
