Inspection and Service For All Makes of Fire Extinguishers


Training in the Use of Fire Extinguishers::
Employee training in the use of fire extinguishers (an extinguisher) should be an important part of your safety program.
Maintenance of Fire Extinguishers::
A portable extinguisher (extinguishers) require periodic maintenance. Some services require a servicing company such as Roberts Safety Service, to handle this service.
The Effectiveness of Portable Fire Extinguishers::
A survey prepared by the National Fire Protection Association of Fire Equip. Dist.’s revealed that hand operated portables extinguished more than 90% of the fire incidents in commercial facilities. In most cases the fire was extinguished before fire department personnel were on the scene. And they can put out fires before the sprinkler system activated.
Commercial and Industrial Fire Extinguishers::
One of the most effective and efficient items of safety equipment your facility can have is high quality Fire Extinguishers.
For Computer Rooms::
Roberts Safety Service now has a new portable fire extinguisher for computer areas and facilities requiring a clean agent discharge. Halon Fire Extinguishers are no longer manufactured for this purpose. A fine water mist fire extinguisher is now available and does a great job of extinguishing the fire.
Water Mist::
After several years in research testing, the water mist portable fire extinguisher offers an alternative to hospitals, computer rooms, and other facilities in need of a clean extinguisher agent.
For More Information::

RECORD KEEPING::
Each fire extinguisher shall have a tag or label securely attached that indicates the month and year the maintenance was performed and shall identity the person performing the service. The same record tag or label shall indicate if recharging was also performed. At least monthly, the date the inspection was performed and the initials of the person performing the inspection shall be recorded. In addition to the required tag or label, a permanent file record should be kept for each fire extinguisher. This file record should include the maintenance date and the name of person or agency performing the maintenance; the date when last recharged and the name of person or agency performing the hydrostatic test; and description of dents remaining after a hydrostatic test. Parts of the above were taken from NFPA Pamphlet 10. MAINTENANCE::
Extinguishers shall be maintained at regular intervals, not more than one year apart, or when specifically indicated by an inspection. Maintenance is a “thorough check” of the extinguishers. It is intended to give maximum assurance that all fire extinguishers will operate effectively and safely. It includes a thorough examination and any necessary repair, recharging or replacement. It will normally reveal the need for hydrostatic testing of an extinguisher.
HYDROTEST::
Extinguishers shall be tested hydrostatically at regular intervals as required in the Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers (NFPA-10) or more frequently when inspection or maintenance indicates a specific need. Such tests are usually required on extinguisher shells, cylinders, some cartridges and some hose assemblies. IF, AT ANY TIME, A FIRE EXTINGUISHER SHOWS EVIDENCE OF CORROSION OR MECHANICAL INJURY, IT SHALL BE SUBJECTED TO A HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE TEST OR REPLACEMENT. WARNING: AIR OR GAS SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR PRESSURE TESTING AS FAILURE OF A SHELL COULD BE VIOLENT AND DANGEROUS, AND MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.
RECHARGE::
All extinguishers shall be recharged after use or as indicated by an inspection or maintenance examination.
