also was advised by fire professional to turn your extinguisher upside down and give it a few love taps with a rubber mallet to keep extinguishing agent from caking. Thanks for all of the great safety videos, my OSHA refresher classes have never been better !!
Hi everyone! Thanks so much for watching! In this video we do a quick, simple, monthly fire extinguisher inspection explanation. I hope it helps you to find the info you need so you can check this item off your to-do list!
These would be much easier to listen to without the background music. I would love to see some with just you speaking where we can clearly hear. Great information.
Not sure you have done a photo on the different fire extinguishers especially those required for liquid fuels. I see a lot of ABC in those areas but OSHA requires B
C02 fire extinguishers don’t have a pressure gauge because they use liquefied C02 (aka dry ice) which as a chemical characteristic, always has a pressure of 830. Therefore a pressure gauge would always read 830 - even if it were half empty so it wouldn't be useful information.

Interesting! That’s a new one for me!
Hi Rachel, always learning a lot through your tutorials and knowing how to use a fire extinguisher is critical.
Thank you Malik! I’m glad it was useful. 🙂
I worked at a power plant where bees liked to live in extinguisher nozzles. Nobody wanted to do the inspections. Your jacket it on point!
Thank you! I’ll do without the bees, that makes checking fire extinguishers a little more exciting. 🐝

Great Videos, thank you!
Ended up here after searching for the song "Fire Drill" by Melanie Martínez. New subscriber.
Okay, now I have to check out that song!
well done

Excellent

Yep! We gave two fire extinguisher training videos on RUclips that cover this.
You have to know the listed weight of a CO2 extinguisher to determine whether it's full, partially discharged or empty.
Very Weldon but it could be b very useful for us u add English subtitles
Why do CO2 extinguishers not have a pressure gauge?

@@AllySafety Thank you. It is 830 kPa, right? That is 120 psi.
The real question is why do I need to pay 100 bucks for a certified inspection
The annual inspection is more in-depth than the monthly one. :)
