Tests are performed on extinguishers selected at random by the auditor from production or from stock. A selection of extinguishing media for analysis according to points C and D of Table 2 can be made by the auditor at the occasion of the audit. These tests may be performed at manufacturer’s facilities or another suitable facility. Within a 5 year period, each test listed below shall have been performed on each model of a manufacturer: external painting: adhesion / thickness (compared to the minimum declared by the manufacturer); internal lining (where applicable): controlled according to manufacturer’s specification; filling tolerance; torque (Body/valve) CO2; extinguishers only; propellant pressure or weight where appropriate; hose and coupling system: performance of the hose (minimum pressure resistance); safety device removal force; marking; tightness-leak test; SIST EN 3-10:2010
