Under the SCDF Code of Practice, it’s mandatory to maintain fire safety equipment like portable fire extinguishers. These must be serviced annually by a TÜV SÜD PSB-approved workshop and bear a TÜV SÜD PSB control tag after servicing. Non-compliance can lead to penalties under the Fire Safety Act.
Based on SS 578 standards, fire extinguishers are required to undergo MONTHLY inspections and maintenance ANNUALLY to ensure they are in proper working order and compliant with safety regulations.
A visual examination to ensure that a fire extinguisher is in good working order. It’s a quick check to verify that the extinguisher is readily accessible, its pressure gauge or indicator shows the charge is in the operable range, and there are no obvious signs of damage or tampering. This regular inspection helps ensure that the extinguisher will function effectively in case of a fire emergency.
Inspection is typically carried out by the owner, occupant, or designated responsible personnel.
A comprehensive examination of the extinguisher and its contents. This process goes beyond a visual inspection and includes detailed checks and tests to ensure that all components of the extinguisher are functioning correctly.
Maintenance and recharging of fire extinguishers must be carried out by skilled personnel from an approved organization. These individuals should be authorized by the relevant authority and equipped with the necessary tools, recharge materials, lubricants, and manufacturer-recommended replacement parts.
