ABC Fire Extinguisher Pressure Gauge
An ABC fire extinguisher pressure gauge is the small dial on the valve head that shows whether a dry powder unit is still charged. Our Manometer Pressure Gauge for ABC Powder Fire Extinguisher is sold as a spare part. Refill shops, service firms and dealers use it to keep their units in good order.
What the gauge tells the user
The dial is split into coloured zones. When the needle rests in the green band, the cylinder holds enough pressure to discharge the powder; a needle in the red band means the unit is undercharged or overcharged and should be serviced. A quick look each month is often the first sign of a slow leak.
A gauge only makes sense on a stored pressure extinguisher. Cartridge units keep the gas in a separate bottle, so the body has no pressure until use and needs no dial.
Matching an ABC fire extinguisher pressure gauge to the cylinder
The extinguishers these gauges fit are typically hand-held units with a 1 kg to 9 kg charge, worked by a manual squeeze lever. Their bodies are usually a mild steel or aluminium cylinder, and discharge is by stored pressure or gas cartridge. The gauge must suit the first of those.
Before we quote, we confirm these points with you:
- The working pressure of your extinguishers, so the green zone is correct
- The thread size and type on your valve bodies
- Dial size, face marking and the agent printed on it (ABC powder, not CO2 or foam)
- Whether you need loose gauges or ones fitted to complete valve heads
We do not state dial ranges or threads here because they differ by valve design, so every order is set against your sample or drawing.
Who buys spare gauges
Service contractors, importers and tender winners with maintenance contracts usually ask us for gauges in bulk cartons alongside powder and seals. Servicing intervals and inspection routines are set out in the NFPA codes and standards and local fire rules.
Complete units are also available, such as the dry powder fire extinguisher and the larger 25 kg DCP type fire extinguisher from our fire fighting equipment range.
Packing and export documents
Gauges ship in protective cartons packed inside seaworthy export crates. Each order to Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana or elsewhere travels with a packing list, a bill of lading and a certificate of origin. See our shipping and export documents page for the full set.
