Inspection

Inspector Detail

Common issues

  • Loss of agent pressure/weight over time from cylinder valve or fitting leakage
  • Corrosion on cylinder brackets and piping in the machinery space environment
  • Actuation solenoid or pilot line failure preventing automatic discharge
  • Detection system (smoke/heat detectors) false alarms or failure to trigger release
  • Discharge nozzles blocked or fouled by paint overspray or debris
  • Manual release cable or pull station corrosion/seizure
  • Compartment integrity failures (damaged seals, unsealed penetrations) reducing agent hold time below the required duration

Inspection checklist

  • Check cylinder pressure gauge / liquid level indicator against the maker's acceptable range
  • Weigh cylinders (or check level gauge) to confirm agent quantity is within tolerance
  • Visual inspection of piping, brackets and nozzles for corrosion, damage or blockage
  • Function test detection and alarm system per the maker's procedure
  • Inspect manual release stations and pull cables for free movement
  • Check protected space door closure and ventilation shutdown interlocks
  • Verify time-delay and pre-discharge alarm operation
  • Check safety signage and operating instructions at protected space entrances

Service intervals

Cylinder weight/pressure checktypically every 12 months
Full function test (detection/actuation, agent isolated)typically annually per maker/class requirement
Internal cylinder inspectiontypically every 5 years or per the maker's certification cycle
Detector sensitivity testtypically annually

Typical wear limits

Agent quantity losstypically requires service/refill if loss exceeds around 5% of nominal charge weight - confirm against the maker/class acceptance limit
Superpressurization gauge readingassessed against the green band marked on the specific cylinder - confirm against the maker's chart

Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.

Critical spares

  • Actuation solenoid valve
  • Pilot actuator head
  • Detector heads
  • Manual pull cable assembly
  • Cylinder valve seal kit

Safety

  • Discharge displaces oxygen in the protected space and personnel must evacuate on alarm
  • Thermal decomposition byproducts can form if the agent contacts very hot surfaces during discharge
  • Cylinders are stored under pressure (nitrogen superpressurized) - do not work on them without isolating pressure and following maker guidance
  • Risk of inadvertent discharge during maintenance if the system is not properly isolated

Class survey

Fixed clean-agent fire suppression systems are subject to annual survey with weight/pressure checks and periodic full function tests; documentation of agent quantity, cylinder inspection dates and detector test records is typically required at each machinery or safety equipment survey.

Free of charge — we forward your request to qualified suppliers for Tyco / Johnson Controls equipment from our network of over 114,000 maritime companies.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we usually come back with prices; without them we have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
