- This ball works automatically: it is placed on top of electrical devices and equipment or by rolling and throwing it on the fire.

- Alarm to warn those present: it is the sound of the explosion (a unit of measure 138 decibels), and the outward driving force does not harm humans or the environment.

- Smothering the fire: This is done by dissolving the layers of air and discharging the oxygen from the surroundings of the burning material.

- Extinguishing the fire: by blowing dry powder atoms on the fire (the active substance is first ammonium phosphate).

Long-term: no need for inspection and maintenance, its shelf life is five years.

Lightweight and effective: its weight is less than (1.5 kg) and its carrying is suitable for women, children and the elderly.

- Easy to use and does not require any training: it works by simply throwing it on the fire or installing it above the sources of danger.
