Design and Construction :  

Imagine a red or white ball, roughly the size of a grapefruit, weighing around 1.3 kilograms (3 pounds). That's essentially what a fire extinguisher ball looks like. Its outer shell is typically made of a lightweight but sturdy plastic material like high-density polyethylene (HDPE), designed to withstand high temperatures without rupturing prematurely. Inside this shell lies the key element – the fire extinguishing agent.

Fire Extinguishing Agent :  

Fire extinguisher balls primarily rely on a dry chemical powder as their extinguishing agent. Mono-ammonium phosphate (MAP) is a common choice, known for its effectiveness against class A (ordinary combustibles) and class B (flammable liquids) fires. Some variations might include ammonium sulfate or other extinguishing agents depending on the manufacturer. The powder is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, leaving minimal residue after use.

Activation Mechanism :  

The beauty of the fire extinguisher ball lies in its automatic activation. Unlike traditional extinguishers that require manual operation, fire extinguisher balls are designed to self-activate upon contact with fire. The most common triggering mechanism involves a heat-sensitive vial or capsule placed within the ball. When the vial comes in contact with fire and reaches a specific temperature (typically around 200°C or 392°F), it bursts, initia
