Inspection

Inspector Detail

Common issues

  • Under- or over-pressurisation from an incorrect or corroded gas cartridge
  • Nozzle/hose blockage from dried agent residue left after a previous discharge
  • External corrosion of the steel body affecting the hydrostatic test result
  • Seal/O-ring degradation causing slow pressure loss
  • Missing or expired service tag making status unverifiable at survey

Inspection checklist

  • Visual check of body, hose, nozzle and cartridge indicator per the monthly extinguisher inspection
  • Check gross weight/cartridge weight against the nameplate value
  • Check the pressure indicator/tamper seal is intact
  • Confirm the service tag is current for annual service and periodic overhaul
  • Confirm location, mounting bracket and fire-class signage are correct and unobstructed
  • Check the cylinder body for corrosion, dents or damage

Service intervals

Visual monthly inspectionmonthly, per SOLAS/flag requirement
Annual service by an approved service stationannually
Extended/overhaul service, including hydrostatic testcommonly every 5 years, with a further internal/refill interval commonly around 10 years - confirm against maker and flag requirements
Gas cartridge weight checkat each annual service

Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.

Critical spares

  • Replacement gas cartridge, correct type/weight for this model
  • Wet chemical agent refill, maker-approved type
  • Hose and nozzle assembly
  • Body O-ring/seal kit
  • Service/inspection tag

Safety

  • The pressurised cartridge should only be serviced by trained personnel - risk of sudden discharge
  • The wet chemical agent can be corrosive/irritant to skin and eyes - follow the safety data sheet for handling and first aid
  • For Class F (cooking oil/fat) fires only - using the wrong extinguisher type on other fire classes can worsen the fire
  • Cartridge-operated units must be activated per the maker procedure - improper activation can result in incomplete or delayed discharge

Class survey

Catalogue mismatch: this entry is filed as a 'Dry Powder Extinguisher', but the manufacturer's own description identifies it as a cartridge-operated wet chemical extinguisher for Class F (cooking oil/fat) fires - the notes above concern the wet chemical unit. typical_wear_limits and estimated_lifetime_hours are not meaningful for a portable extinguisher and have been omitted; condemnation/renewal is governed by the approved service station's inspection and hydrostatic test result, not a generic figure. Confirm the mounted unit's type/class signage matches the vessel's approved fire control plan.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
