2 kg ABC fire extinguishers compared: all 11 models

Figures as each maker publishes them. Fire ratings are to IS 15683, or to EN 3 or UL where the model carries that approval: a higher number means a larger test fire put out, A for wood, paper and cloth, B for flammable liquids.

Where a 2 kg ABC fire extinguisher is used

Most 2 kg units weigh about 3.3 to 3.6 kg when full and stand about 370 to 440 mm tall, and they discharge for about 9 to 14 seconds, depending on the model. That is enough for a small fire in a vehicle, a kitchen corner away from the cooking oil, an electrical panel or a small store room.

  • Cars, SUVs, vans and autos
  • Small shops, kiosks and counters
  • Homes and flats
  • Small clinics and offices
  • Electrical panels and meter rooms in small buildings
  • Generator and inverter areas

How to choose

The 2 kg size shows the biggest gap between powder grades: Ceasefire lists 2A 70B with MAP 50 and 3A 70B with MAP 90 under IS 15683, and Kanex 2A 34B on its MAP 50 RQ unit against 2A 55B on its MAP 90 HQ unit. If the extinguisher is your only protection, MAP 90 is the better buy.

For a car or van pick a unit with a vehicle bracket; for a coastal or chemical site, Kanex, Minimax and Ceasefire offer stainless steel bodies.

Frequently asked questions

Is a 2 kg ABC fire extinguisher enough for a shop?
For a small shop or kiosk a 2 kg unit can be the first line, but most shops and offices use 4 kg or 6 kg units on the wall, which carry two to three times the powder. We can check what your shop needs on a free site visit.
What is the price of a 2 kg ABC fire extinguisher in Bhopal?
It depends on the brand, the powder grade (MAP 50 or MAP 90), stored pressure or cartridge operation, the body and the quantity, and makers change their price lists often, so we quote each order instead of listing prices. Send the size, the brand if you have one in mind, and the quantity on WhatsApp at +91 92440 89060 and we will reply with the current price. Every supply is billed on a GST invoice.
Does a 2 kg ABC fire extinguisher need refilling?
Yes. It must be refilled after every use, even a short burst, and checked regularly: the seal should be intact, the service label in date and, on stored pressure units, the gauge needle in the green band. We refill and pressure test ABC extinguishers of every brand in Bhopal, see fire extinguisher refilling.
How many 2 kg fire extinguishers does my building need?
That depends on the floor area, the kind of fire risk and the rules that apply to the building: IS 2190, the National Building Code and, for a Fire NOC, the MP Fire Department. Our engineers work it out on a free site visit in Bhopal and tell you the number, size and type for each floor.
