AFF Foam ID Sign Photoluminescent

Description

The foam fire extinguisher ID sign indicates which types of fire the AFF Foam fire extinguisher can put out and which it cannot. Different forms of fire call for different extinguishers. Fire extinguisher ID signs are key in allowing quick recognition of which fire extinguisher is which. This then allows an untrained user to see which type of fire each of the extinguishers can combat. This quick recognition is the key point in any emergency situation and could be the difference between life and death.

A symbol to show that the point is a fire extinguisher point is all that’s required at each fire extinguisher. The upgrade to a fire extinguisher ID sign is for helping the user who will operate the extinguisher decipher whether they are using the correct extinguisher for that type of fire.

This sign is photoluminescent. Photoluminescence is the light emission from any form of matter after the absorption of photons. This simply means it can be seen in the dark. This aids if a fire were to cause a power outage.

Are fire extinguisher signs required by UK legislation?

Yes, fire extinguisher signs are required by UK legislation. The Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and the Fire Safety Order 2005 require that fire extinguishers be appropriately signed to indicate their location and the type of fire for which they are suitable. The signs must be clearly visible and legible. They must include the appropriate graphical symbol for the type of extinguisher. In addition, the signs must be positioned so that they can be easily seen in the event of a fire. Failing to comply with these regulations can result in legal penalties, as well as an increased risk of injury or damage in the event of a fire.
