nameplate. Ensure the O seal seats correctly. Firmly hand tight collar onto the cylinder (max force 

20-30Nm / 15-22 ft lbs.) to hold valve firmly in place. Attach the charging adapter hand tight into 

the valve assembly thread.   

8.    With the extinguisher properly secured in an upright position, connect your  nitrogen pressurizing 

line with a quick connect to  the charging adapter.    Depress the extinguisher operating lever and 

pressurize  extinguisher  to  the  proper  operating  pressure.    When  the  desired  pressure  has  been 

reached, release the lever.    Shut off nitrogen supply and remove the quick connect.   

9.    Check  extinguisher  for  leaks  by  applying  detecting  fluid  or  a  solution  of  soapy  water  to  the 

charging  adapter  orifice,  around  the  collar  O-ring  sealing  area,  cylinder  welds  and  gauge.   

Remove the charging adapter.    Blow nitrogen into the interior of the valve assembly to remove 

any  remaining  leak  detecting  fluid.    Wipe  exterior  of  extinguisher  to  remove  any  remaining 

residue.   

10.    Install hose /wand assembly. Ensure coupling is firmly tightened into valve and place lance inside 

two loops on the straps at the top and bottom of the cylinder. See appendix A for image. 

11.    Install  ring  pin  through  handle,  lever  and  valve  with  ring  facing  the  front  of  the  extinguisher 

(gauge side).   

12.    Install new tamper seal wrapping through loop and around levers to secure ring pin. Do not over 

stress tamper seal.   

13.    Weigh assembled extinguisher and confirm that the total weight is within the allowable tolerances 

indicated in the Maintenance section of the nameplate (label).   

14. 

After  completing  the  maintenance  examination,  properly  tag,  label,  and  record  the  procedure  in 

accordance with NFPA-10 and any local requirements 

15.  Replace the extinguisher on the wall hanger or in the vehicle bracket making sure that it fits the 

bracket properly and the bracket is securely attached – replace the bracket if necessary 

 

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 

 

WARNING 

To avoid risk of injury of death, should any audible pressure leak be observed during disassembly of 

the extinguisher, then technicians should stop service activities and wait until all residual pressure is 

released. 

 

LEAKAGE   

Determine the source of a leak before the extinguisher is depressurized. The extinguisher must be 

completely depressurized before any attempt is made to de-valve it and correct a leakage problem. 

 

DEPRESSURIZE 

Hold the extinguisher in an inverted position and slowly squeeze the discharge handle. Some water 

remaining in the dip tube will be expelled so care should be taken in the area being used for 

depressurizing.    Thoroughly clean all valve parts after depressurization and valve removal.
