A fire extinguisher is a portable device designed to control and extinguish small fires. It is a vital firefighting tool that contains firefighting agents, such as water, foam, dry powder, or carbon dioxide (CO2). The extinguisher is operated by a user, who aims the nozzle or hose at the base of the fire and activates it by squeezing a handle or lever. When discharged, the agent suppresses the fire by cooling the flames, eliminating oxygen, or interrupting the chemical reaction. Fire extinguishers are commonly found in homes, workplaces, vehicles, and public spaces, serving as an initial line of defense to prevent fire growth and potential hazards.
