An automatic diffusion extinguisher is a device that automatically sprays extinguishing agents when a certain temperature (75℃) is reached. It includes types for general fires, kitchen fires, and electrical equipment fires, and is installed in places such as boiler rooms, restaurants, and substations depending on its use.


Small space fire extinguishing equipment refers to simple extinguishing devices that automatically detect and extinguish fires in small spaces, and are installed in distribution boards and switchboards.


An arc interrupter functions by detecting and cutting off arcs caused by electrical and electronic insulation breakdowns, connection faults, and aging phenomena, thereby preventing electrical fires.



A representative from Gwangsan Fire Station stated, “Fire protection facilities such as automatic diffusion extinguishers and arc interrupters are effective against initial fires,” and added, “Voluntary installation by citizens is necessary for fire prevention.”
