UL fire extinguisher Suppliers
The world's first fire extinguisher was born in 1834. In London, a fire almost completely destroyed the ancient Palace of Westminster, where the British Parliament is located. Among the many fire watchers, there is one who is not idling to see the fire scene, he is George William Manby. Manby was born in Norfolk and served as the commander of the Yarmouth Barracks as a young man from the army to the captain. This idle position allowed him to devote time to the cause of saving human lives that strongly attracted him. Earlier, he was keen on shipwreck rescue. He invented the pants-shaped lifebuoy and was the first to propose the use of lighthouse flashes to identify signals.
Later, Manby turned his genius from marine rescue to fire rescue. When a fire broke out, he was experimenting with fireproof clothing. His most remarkable and pioneering contribution was his invention of a portable compressed gas fire extinguisher, which was a copper cylinder two feet long, eight inches in diameter, and a capacity of four gallons, which was basically the same as today's fire extinguishers. He put the fire extinguisher in his specially designed trolley. He hoped that a patrol equipped with such a fire extinguisher would immediately extinguish the first small fire at the fire site, thereby reducing the number of major fires.
