Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems Maintenance Checklist

Clean agent fire extinguishing systems are the quiet heroes of data centers, control rooms, archives, and critical healthcare environments – places where water-based suppression just isn’t an option. These systems use specialized agents to extinguish fires quickly without leaving residue or damaging equipment. But like all fire protection systems, reliability depends on consistent, documented maintenance.

Over time, agent cylinders can lose pressure, nozzles can become obstructed, and HVAC interlocks may fail – any of which could prevent full discharge when a fire occurs. Regular inspection ensures cylinders are charged, detectors are clean, and all release and control components operate properly when triggered.

Our Clean Agent Fire Extinguishing Systems Maintenance Checklist makes it simple to keep these complex systems in top condition. It walks you through all key inspection intervals and provides a built-in log to track work done and corrective actions.

What’s Inside the Checklist

Your downloadable checklist includes:

• Monthly Inspections: Cylinder condition, nozzle obstructions, enclosure integrity, and warning signage.
• Semi-Annual Tasks: Detector sensitivity tests, control panel checks, and HVAC interlock verification.
• Annual Maintenance: Cylinder weighing/pressure tests, alarm and strobe testing, and enclosure integrity testing.
• 5-Year Tasks: Hydrostatic testing of agent cylinders and hoses, plus repeat enclosure tests.
• Maintenance Log: Space to record inspections, service intervals, and maintenance notes for compliance records.
