When you put out a chip pan fire, you remove the oxygen supply that is sustaining the flames. By covering the pan with a fire blanket or wet cloth, you starve the fire of oxygen, which is necessary for combustion to occur.
smother it, preferably with the lid. do NOT use water.AnswerEither place a fire blanket or a damp tea towell over the pan turn off the heat and leave to extinguish and fully cool beforeremoving the covering.as stated above do not use water as this will create a fire balldo not attempt to remove the pan until it is fully coolas this may result in serious personal injury
To put out a chip pan fireyou can not remove heat quickly enoughnor can you remove fuelSo you have to remove oxygen by smothering with a damp teatowel or cloth etc and preventing OXYGEN from reaching the fire.
The fire isn't put out properly, although incorrect use of a fire blanket would be quite challenging as one only has to cover a pan fire or wrap someone in one.
To put out a chip-pan fire, turn off the heat source immediately, cover the pan with a damp cloth or a fire blanket to smother the flames, and leave the pan to cool completely before moving it. Do not use water to extinguish the fire as it can cause the oil to splatter and spread the flames.
You need three things for something to burn, a fuel (the oil), an ignition source (the burning oil), and oxygen (air). When you put the blanket over the pan, you eliminate the air from the equation, thus extinguishing the flames.
s when theres a fire the blanket would put it out
Because you dont put water on a oil fire or a explosion will happen. This includes a grease fire... Dont put it out with water... If you put a fire blanket over it... It will put it out the safe way E.G. Smuther it.
It tells you the elements of a fire, therefore it will help the easiest way to put out a fire. The 3 elements are: Oxygen, Heat and fuel. An example: A chip pan fire using oil. Foam extinguisher, as the foam sits on top of the oil, cutting off the oxygen.
oxygen
Do NOT attempt to put water on this type of fire! Also, DO NOT open the pan, as it will add more oxygen to the fire and make it burn even harder. Simply throw BAKING SODA on top of the fire, and it will die down. Be generous. Edit: Chances are, if the oil is burning, the pan is open, so you will need to put a lid on the pan that will sit tightly and seal off any oxygen from entering that pan. As a precaution, I would suggest having a flame extinguisher or a fire blanket in the kitchen.
