FAQ

1. What is the AFE capsule?

The AFE (Automatic Fire Extinguisher) capsule is a self-activating fire safety device designed to instantly suppress fire at its source — without human intervention. It detects heat and automatically bursts to extinguish the fire within seconds.

You can install the AFE capsule in multiple areas prone to fire, such as:

  • Kitchens (near or above gas cylinders)

  • Cars and vehicles (under the bonnet or dashboard)

When the surrounding temperature reaches a certain limit (typically around 155–170°C), the capsule bursts automatically, releasing the agent to extinguish the fire instantly.
