Pressure Testing and Recharging

Fire extinguishers are designed to have a life cycle of 10 -15 years when maintained correctly and part of this maintenance schedule is a (5) five yearly pressure test and recharge in accordance with Australian Standards.

The date in which this is determined is from the date of manufacture, which is stamped on the cylinder. The fire extinguisher is removed from site, with a loan unit being left in its place for the duration of pressure testing.

Pressure testing and recharging are carried out, with the extinguisher being discharged, an internal inspection and cylinder pressure test is completed before cleaning, replacing valves and seals, refilling and re-charging.

Once this is completed a renewal date is stamped into the extinguisher, which gives another 5 years of service. The extinguisher is then returned to your building or business.
