Fire Extinguisher Recharge & Service in Bosque Farms, NM

Fire Safety Industries is your local New Mexico authority for fire extinguisher recharge, refilling, 6-year maintenance, and hydrostatic testing in Bosque Farms, NM. Fire extinguishers are pressurized safety devices that require systematic maintenance cycles. If an extinguisher is discharged (even partially) or has reached a maintenance interval, it must be serviced immediately.

6-Year Fire Extinguisher Internal Maintenance

Every 6 years, dry chemical fire extinguishers must undergo an internal maintenance procedure. Our technicians in Bosque Farms perform the following:

1. Discharge all dry chemical agent from the cylinder.
2. Remove the valve assembly and clean all internal parts.
3. Inspect the cylinder internally for corrosion, pitting, or weld damage.
4. Replace the valve stem, O-rings, and seals.
5. Refill the cylinder with fresh dry chemical powder.
6. Reassemble the unit and repressurize it with nitrogen gas.
7. Apply a 6-year maintenance collar and tagging.

Hydrostatic Pressure Testing (5 and 12-Year)

Hydrostatic testing verifies the structural strength of the fire extinguisher cylinder using high water pressure. Different types of cylinders have varying test intervals:

• Dry Chemical Cylinders (Stored Pressure): Hydro tested every 12 years.
• Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Cylinders: Hydro tested every 5 years.
• Wet Chemical (Class K) Cylinders: Hydro tested every 5 years.
• Clean Agent (Halotron) Cylinders: Hydro tested every 12 years.

FSI has a state-of-the-art hydrostatic testing lab at our Albuquerque facility. We provide walk-in service for business owners bringing in portable cylinders from Bosque Farms during weekdays.
