Its portable extinguisher design and collapsible structure make it a reliable companion for emergency situations, rural firefighting, and property protection. Whether you’re a landowner, volunteer, or outdoor enthusiast, the Pestrol Fire Fighting Knapsack 18L ensures you’re ready when every second counts.

    Key Features

    • 18-litre capacity for extended firefighting without frequent refills, making it suitable for spot fire and ember control.

    • Collapsible and lightweight, allowing for easy transport and compact storage when not in use.

    • Manual hand pump mechanism ensures reliable operation in remote or off-grid locations, independent of external power sources

    • Fitted with a manual stainless steel water lance that can project a concentrated stream of water to distances of 10 meters or more.

     

    Ideal Use

    • Rapid response to spot fires and ember attacks during bushfire season.

    • Fire management and suppression in remote or off-grid locations.

    • Supplementing fire safety equipment in vehicles, sheds, or workshops.

    • Emergency preparedness for camping, hiking, and outdoor activities in fire-prone areas.

    How to Use

    1. Fill the collapsible fire fighting knapsack with clean water or an approved fire suppressant up to the 18L mark.

    2. Secure the lid tightly and check all hose and nozzle connections for leaks.

    3. Adjust the straps for a snug, balanced fit on your back.

    4. Pump the handle to build pressure in the tank.

    5. Aim at the base of the fire and apply controlled bursts to extinguish flames.

    6.  The nozzle is non-adjustable – the water will be dispensed in a consistent jet stream for direct suppression.

    Precautions

    • Intended for small spot fires and ember control; always assess the situation.
    • Adhere to local bushfire safety guidelines and evacuate if the fire becomes unmanageable.

    • Do not fill with flammable liquids or chemicals.

    • Ensure the knapsack is securely strapped on both shoulders for balanced weight distribution and to prevent strain.

    • Avoid running or jumping while wearing the fire knapsack, as liquid movement may affect your balance.

    • Regularly inspect the unit for leaks, wear, or blockages—especially before fire season.

    • Store the collapsible fire fighting knapsack in a cool, dry place and rinse thoroughly after use to maintain longevity.

    FAQ

    Is this product suitable for professional firefighting?

    The Pestrol Fire Fighting Knapsack 18L is ideal for personal, rural, and property protection but is not a replacement for professional firefighting equipment. Always assess the situation and prioritize your safety.

    How do I store the knapsack when not in use?

    After use, empty and rinse the tank, allow it to dry completely, and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The collapsible design makes it easy to flatten or fold to save storage space.

    Can the collapsible fire fighting knapsack be used for purposes other than firefighting?

    While primarily designed as a bushfire knapsack and portable extinguisher, some users employ it for agricultural spraying or watering in remote areas. However, always thoroughly clean the tank if switching between fire suppression and other uses to avoid contamination.
