Installation and Manufacturing of Fire Extinguishers: In-depth Interview with Tural Omarov
Product Brief:
Question: Tural, why are fire extinguishers essential for every facility?
Tural Omarov:
A fire extinguisher is the first and fastest response tool in case of a fire. At the initial stage of a fire, it can prevent a major disaster. Offices, shopping centers, restaurants, warehouses, and industrial facilities must be equipped with fire extinguishers to meet fire safety requirements.
Question: What are the key requirements for installing fire extinguishers?
Tural Omarov:
Fire extinguishers must be installed in accordance with regulations, not randomly. Key requirements include:
-
Near entrances, evacuation routes, and high-risk areas
-
Installed at a height of 1–1.5 meters from the floor
-
Easy and unobstructed access
-
Quantity and coverage depend on the type of facility
Staff training is also critically important.
Question: What types of fire extinguishers are most commonly used?
Tural Omarov:
The most common types are:
-
Dry powder extinguishers (ABC) — universal, suitable for offices and warehouses
-
CO₂ extinguishers — ideal for server rooms and electrical equipment
-
Water and foam extinguishers — effective for paper and wood fires
Choosing the wrong type can worsen the situation.
Question: What can you tell us about fire extinguisher manufacturing?
Tural Omarov:
Fire extinguisher manufacturing is a strictly controlled process:
-
Cylinders are made from high-pressure resistant metal
-
Extinguishing agents must be certified
-
Each unit undergoes pressure testing
-
Products must comply with ISO and local fire safety standards
Poor-quality extinguishers may fail during an emergency.
Question: How important is maintenance of fire extinguishers?
Tural Omarov:
Maintenance is critical. Many facilities install extinguishers but neglect inspections.
-
Inspections every 6–12 months
-
Checking pressure, seals, and overall condition
-
Expired extinguishers must be replaced
An unmaintained extinguisher is unreliable.
Question: Your advice to facility owners in Uzbekistan?
Tural Omarov:
Fire safety should be ensured not for inspections, but for real protection. Certified equipment, professional installation, and regular maintenance are investments in human life.
