NFPA 10 requires every portable fire extinguisher to be inspected and documented every 30 days. In hospitals, campuses, and large facilities, that can mean thousands of repetitive inspections each month. Manual processes are labor-heavy, inconsistent, and easy to get wrong, especially across multiple buildings.
Walking buildings, opening cabinets, checking gauges, and signing tags consumes skilled labor that could be spent on maintenance and repairs.
Missing tags, illegible initials, or incomplete logs create preventable compliance issues during AHJ and accreditor surveys.
Obstructed, relocated, or depressurized extinguishers are often found weeks after the issue occurs, not when it happens.
Hexmodal smart fire extinguisher monitors automate the NFPA 10 monthly inspection process. Battery-powered sensors continuously verify extinguisher status and generate compliant inspection records automatically. Each inspection includes pressure status, weight verification, obstruction detection, tamper detection, and a photo of the gauge, all stored digitally.
