| Hot work segregation | Welding screen | Spark, UV and bystander protection around welding tasks |
Standards, Siting and Maintenance Notes
Fire protection equipment should be visible, accessible and maintained for immediate use. For Malaysia, portable extinguisher selection and maintenance are commonly planned around Malaysian Standards such as MS 1539, while hose reel and foam inlet planning can reference MS 1489. For Singapore, SCDF guidance references SS EN 3 and SS 578 for portable fire extinguishers.
Common Questions
Which fire extinguisher should I choose?
Start with the fire class and workplace fuel: ordinary combustibles, flammable liquids, electrical equipment, metal fires or cooking oils. Then compare extinguisher type, rating, size, siting and service support.
How often should fire equipment be checked?
Users should visually check access, signage, pressure indicators, damage and obstruction routinely. Formal servicing, testing and tagging should follow local requirements, standards and competent service provider guidance.
Why use fire cabinets or stands?
Cabinets and stands keep extinguishers, hose reels and response equipment visible, protected and easier to inspect, while reducing loss, damage and blocked access.
