Product guide
A 6kg dry chemical powder (DCP) fire extinguisher refill is a maintenance service to restore the DCP charge to a qualified 6kg fire extinguisher. After being used or when its condition suggests recharging is necessary, all fire extinguishers need to be inspected and serviced. Professional refilling will help determine if the existing cylinder, valve, and/or other parts are still capable of providing continued service. Sensato Trade offers customers information regarding 6kg DCP fire extinguisher refill options, prices, and professional services. With online ordering, arranging the next phase of maintaining workplace and/or residential fire safety equipment is made easier. Order now with cash on delivery nationwide.

Discharging and Inspections: Fully discharge all of the pressure in the system, then take off the brass/metal valve assembly. At that point, examine both the inside and outside of the steel cylinder to determine if there is any rust, corrosion, or damage to the cylinder.
Powder replacement: Remove the used, clumped powder from the container and replace it with 6 kg of new ABC dry chemical powder.
Valve & Part Service: Clean the siphon tube; lubricate or replace the valve spindle/O-rings; inspect both the safety pin and tamper seal.
Re-Pressurize: Fill the cylinder with nitrogen gas until it reaches its working pressure of 14-15 bars.
Leak testing: Use a dunk/soap bubble test in a water tank to make sure that there are no leaks of pressure around the threads of the gauge and the neck.
Service Tag: Use the current service and expiration tags. DCP (Dry Chemical Powder) units are generally serviced/refilled each year, while they will also undergo a complete hydrostatic pressure test every five years.
How much does a 6kg DCP refill cost?

Can every 6kg extinguisher be refilled?
The cylinder needs to have an inspection to verify whether or not it can continue to be used.
How to refill fire extinguisher?
Refilling a fire extinguisher is a risky process and it need to be done by the professional. Avoid attempting at home or handling by the trained person. A pressurized cylinder acts like a high-energy vessel. Improper handling, wrong chemical fills, or over-pressurization can cause the tank to rupture or the valve assembly to shoot off like a fatal projectile
