If all depends on flag state circular and manufacturer requirements. Annual - thorough inspection of foam and DCP extinguisher & for CO2 - thorough inspection and weight check too. 5 yearly - again thorough inspection and than for dcp and foam - it has to be recharged...(foam and DCP to be changed)...etc
Sir exactly can u tell me pin which is der for puncture co2cartridge wen we press lever wer it is remain so wen we press the lever it puncture the c02 cartridge?
Good video, i think for co2 we need to check the weight of co2 cylinder to know any pressure leakage and need to check the horn whether any blockage in horn like dust or any
Markings are necessary, you can order the new sticker of the markings from the maker or else temporarily you can type the important things in red background and take print and laminate the paper and post it on extinguisher, talking about rust you can do slight maintenance with wire brush and paint it.
That weighing is done to check content of CO2 extinguisher as their is no other way to check the inside content, you can wieigh the content of C02 by subtracting the extinguisher weight from the total gross wt of extinguisher to find CO2 weight, if the wt is less than 10% of the required amt , than it should be refilled.
You don't need to check pressure in a Co2 extinguisher, the contents are checked by weighing the extinguisher. Few extinguishers of DCP and foam don't have Co2 cartridges, those extinguishers are pressurized ones...they have pressure gauge on it.
Sir every extinguisher has gauges for extinguisher foam dcp for checking pressure no??why CO2 extinguisher don't have gauges small one gauge like it has green red marking why c02 does not have?
Every extinguisher doesn't have gauges, it depends on makers and if you have gauge means it's already pressurised and it doesn't have CO2 cartridge in it, when you don't have gauges means it has CO2 cartridge, so when It gets punctured, it fills up outer chamber of extinguisher causing contents of it to come out via discharge hose.
ISO is followed Worldwide including Europe. NFPA is followed only in US waters. For Standard use, all ships follow ISO standards, and even if you are ordering any LSA FFA items in US waters, you have to specify that you want those items as per ISO standards.
Sir! in the inspection label of Co2 extinguisher there was a column for 5 yearly Hydro test.... but the hydro static test of extinguisher is conducted every 10 years.... then why there is column for 5 yearly hyro test...could you pls clarify on this...?
Yes hydrotest is 10 yrly We have refilling ( recharging ) 5 yearly But it all depends from manufacturer to manufacture ...some say 4 years and some say 5 years. Regarding Inspection label, can u pls give time of video where u saw hydrotest 5 yearly .
@@SailorVikas Sorry for not being specific. Does the extinguisher have just a five year life span of usage ??? Can the item be used past the expiration date ??? Thanks
If you are not getting port calls to carry out shore servicing from shore...than still u can't help it....u have to use it....however such situations are hardly encountered as we have to inform company regarding the servicing 3 months prior expiry...so servicing is done well before the expiration.
hi vikas.. i suppose the hyd pressure test for fire ext is 5 yrs and that of scba is 10 yrs coz in drydock these extingushers are sent to shore for pressure test. or am I saying wrong.? just have a look.
No bro...I am sure about it ...it all depends from manufacturer to manufacturer but generally hyd pressure testing is 10 years for extinguisher and 5 years for scba & lifeboat air bottles. You can also refer Anglo's maintenance manual for more info.
Sorry but this is wrong inspection. Unfortunately this is unproper inspection. You must check the whole unit which means that you must check the base/bottom of the extinguishers to check if there is no any damage or rust.
I'm really excited, but I think it should be mentioned, especially when reading other comments. I believe that reaching out to people in this way is absolutely right, but in my opinion, it would be good if it were improved.@@SailorVikas
@@kamilagiewka9604 it's easy to say to improve to others. The video is of past probably 3-4 yrs back where I had no clue of how to shoot , I have came a long way so pls appreciate rather can asking me to improve.
What is 5yearly n annual test or inspection about..?
If all depends on flag state circular and manufacturer requirements.
Annual - thorough inspection of foam and DCP extinguisher & for CO2 - thorough inspection and weight check too.
5 yearly - again thorough inspection and than for dcp and foam - it has to be recharged...(foam and DCP to be changed)...etc
Sailor Vikas thnx bro.. 👍🏻
It has to be hidrostatically tested and recharged
@@SailorVikas Co2 extinguisher 5yearly need to recharge?
Yes
I truly respect n appreciate the effort you put to make others knowledgeable .
Thanks mate
@@SailorVikas plse make an video on trs avoiding action n passage planning in ecdis.
Sir exactly can u tell me pin which is der for puncture co2cartridge wen we press lever wer it is remain so wen we press the lever it puncture the c02 cartridge?
It's punctures the mouth of cartridge, however CO2 extinguisher don't have cartridge, it is for other types of extinguisher like DCP foam
Good video, i think for co2 we need to check the weight of co2 cylinder to know any pressure leakage and need to check the horn whether any blockage in horn like dust or any
Yes annually need to check weight which is done by shore.
if the markings are faded and there is the rust on extinguisher and buckles are broken what we can do?
Markings are necessary, you can order the new sticker of the markings from the maker or else temporarily you can type the important things in red background and take print and laminate the paper and post it on extinguisher, talking about rust you can do slight maintenance with wire brush and paint it.
Correctly said above.

you people have good ideas

Sir, Can you please tell me.. How do we know that, which standard of Fire Classes is used on board (ISO or NFPA)??

@@SailorVikas It was clearly seen in the foam and dcp extinguisher video.... @11:35 min
ruclips.net/video/RE8r-4bM84s/видео.html
how often do you replace fire extinguisher agent For Co2 ,Dp, Foam
Depends on manufacturers instructions, mostly it's 5 years
If the extinguisher is sealed like this, wouldn't it make problematic for the safety pin to open instantly in case of using in fire?
Nope not a problem...because this seals are weak, they break easily while pulling with a jerk 😊
What if the co2 extinguisher date is expired ??? Can you still use it for home usage ???? Thanks
Which date you mean ?? It has annual and 5 yearly service dates on it ...did u mean that ??
@@SailorVikas Sorry for not being specific. Does the extinguisher have just a five year life span of usage ??? Can the item be used past the expiration date ??? Thanks

@@SailorVikas Thanks Sailor for the information fella.
Sir! Why do we have Co2 fire extinguisher in brigde if it must not be inside accomodation?
Near electronic equipments we require CO2 extinguisher.
As foam extinguisher cannot b used their as it contains water.
