EQA: Fire Blanket in CE EN 1869:2019 Standard

The EQA fire blanket is made of E-Glass fiberglass fabric (+/—430g) and has passed the CE EN 1869:2019 test. It is available in three sizes: 1.2 x 1.2m, 1.2 x 1.8m, and 1.8 x 1.8m.

 
Fire blankets can quickly extinguish flames to minimize burns or prevent the spread of fire. They effectively isolate the fire from the outside air to extinguish the fire. Besides controlling small fires, the fire blanket also limits the risk of electric shock in case of unintentional use of live electrical equipment.
 
General use:
  • 1) If a fire occurs, turn off the heat source under safe conditions.
  • 2) Pull the woven tapes to release the fire blanket from the container.
  • 3) Hold the woven tape, wrap the blanket forward on your hand, and protect yourself from the flame. Then, use the blanket as a heat shield, stay calm, aim at the target, and gently cover the burning material to extinguish the flame. *** Do not use the throwing method. The airflow caused by throwing may increase the fire, and it is possible to miss the target ***.
  • 4) Turn off the heat source and keep the fire blankets on until they cool.  ***Don't try to uncover it before it has completely cooled***.


Used to extinguish a fire on people's clothes:
***Protect your hand safely by wrapping the fire blanket before approaching the flame***.

  • 1) If a person's clothes catch fire, wrap the blanket tightly around the person to smother them, let him fall to the ground, and roll until the fire has been put out.
  • 2) Leave the person wrapped in the fire blanket and call emergency services immediately.

WARNING! ***Only fire blankets with a minimum size of 1.2 x 1.8 meters are suitable for extinguishing clothing fires***.
