Fire Extinguisher Recharging/Hydrostatic Testing
Recharging & Hydrostatic Testing All stored pressure and cartridge operated fire extinguishers need recharging and hydrostatic testing at periodic intervals as required in the standard for portable fire extinguishers (NFPAIO).
Recharging is the replacement or replenishment of all extinguisher agent and expellant for most types of extinguishers. Stored pressure dry chemical extinguishers require recharging every 6 years.
Carbon Dioxide, water and wet chemical extinguishers need recharging after a hydrostatic test every 5 years. Stored pressure, cartridge operated and wheeled dry chemical extinguishers need recharging after hydrostatic testing every 12 years. Hose assemblies on cartridge operated extinguishers as well as wheeled fire extinguishers must also be hydrostatic tested every 12 years. The following table will help summarize the requirements.
