Description
Compact Multi-Purpose Fire Protection
The Jactone Basic 1kg ABC Powder Fire Extinguisher (EPS1Z) is a compact solution for businesses that need dependable protection against a range of common fire risks without installing a larger, heavier extinguisher. Filled with ABC powder, the EPS1Z is suitable for Class A, Class B and Class C fires, making it useful where combustible materials, flammable liquids or gaseous fuels may be present. Its small format makes it particularly practical for vehicles, workshops, plant, storage areas and other locations where available space is limited. Jactone also highlights its powder extinguishers as highly effective against petrol and volatile liquids, supporting applications where vehicle or fuel-related risks need to be considered.
With a 5A | 34B | C fire rating, the EPS1Z provides a broad range of fire protection in a unit measuring just 330mm high and 85mm in diameter. It uses nitrogen gas as the propellant, operates at 14 bar at 20°C, and has an average discharge time of 6 seconds. At approximately 1.96kg when filled, it is a particularly practical option where the extinguisher needs to be easy to position and readily accessible.
Ideal Where Space Is Limited
Not every application has room for a full-size fire extinguisher. The 1kg EPS1Z offers a more compact alternative while still providing ABC-rated fire protection, making it well suited to vehicles, smaller work areas and locations where storage space is restricted. Its -30°C to +60°C operating temperature range also gives the extinguisher considerable flexibility for use across different working environments.
The extinguisher features a nickel-plated brass valve and a colour-coded header label for straightforward identification. It is Kitemark certified to BS EN3 and CE marked, providing professionally documented product certification for businesses specifying workplace fire safety equipment.

A Practical Extinguisher for Vehicles & Smaller Applications

Its compact dimensions and sub-2kg filled weight make it easier to accommodate than larger powder extinguishers, while its ABC classification provides protection across several recognised fire risks in a single unit.
For businesses looking to equip vehicles, smaller work areas or specific points of risk with a compact extinguisher, the Jactone Basic 1kg provides a straightforward and cost-conscious option from an established fire extinguisher range.
