Fire Extinguisher Recharging Process

• • The fire extinguisher is firstly de-pressurized completely, and the agent is removed from the cylinder, then the discharge valve is removed from the cylinder.
  • After that, the siphon tube is detached from the valve, and then the valve stem and spring are removed.
  • The technician cleans the valve, replaces the valve neck O-ring, and visually inspects the unit internally as well as externally for checking any sign of damage.
  • Once cleaned the valve is reassembled with a new valve stem and installed to protect proper seating and avoid future pressure loss.
  • The extinguishing agents such as water, carbon dioxide, dry chemical, etc. are refilled by weight to the appropriate amount for the size of the unit and as specified in the recharging instructions for that unit.
  • The unit is re-pressurized with the appropriate pressurizing gas as noted on the recharging instructions and to the required pressure for that unit.
  • The technician completes a Leak Test to check for signs of leakage and reinstalls the discharge nozzle or hose.
  • The extinguisher is weighed again to confirm that the total weight is within allowable tolerances indicated by the manufacturer.
  • A new tamper seal is installed on the safety pin and a new recharge tag is attached to the unit with each tag indicating the unit total weight and the identity of the technician completing the work.
