Once the cylinder is empty, it can be taken to a licensed facility for refilling. It is important to choose a reputable service provider who is experienced in refilling fire extinguishers. This ensures that the cylinder is refilled correctly and to the required pressure level. The refill process involves filling the cylinder with Carbon di oxide gas to the correct pressure level. This pressure level is specified by the manufacturer and is usually indicated on the cylinder itself. Overfilling or under filling the cylinder can lead to safety hazards, and therefore it is important to adhere to the manufacturer’s specifications. During the refill process, the cylinder is also inspected for any damage or wear and tear. Any defects must be addressed before the cylinder is refilled, to ensure it is safe for use. The service provider may also conduct a hydrostatic test to check the cylinder’s integrity.

After refilling, the cylinder is weighed to ensure that it is within the specified weight range. This weight range is also indicated on the cylinder and is determined by the amount of CO2 gas required to fill the cylinder to the correct pressure level. Once the cylinder has been refilled and weighed, it is fitted with a new valve and retested to ensure it is functioning correctly. The valve is an essential component of the fire extinguisher, and therefore it must be replaced if it is damaged or worn. Finally, the cylinder is recharged with CO2 gas and tested again to ensure that it is functioning correctly. The service provider will also apply a new label to the cylinder, indicating the date of the refill and the expiration date of the cylinder. In conclusion, refilling a 4.5kg CO2 fire extinguisher is a critical task. That should only be carried out by a licensed and experienced service provider. Adhering to the manufacturer’s specifications and conducting regular inspections of the cylinder can ensure. That the fire extinguisher is always ready for use in case of an emergency. Click here to buy new Co2 4.5kg Fire Extinguisher
